Soup

I am the firm believer if you have eggs or egg white with any type of protein, it can be considered breakfast food.  Case in point – leftover pulled pork.  Even though it was 8:30 in the morning, it looked so good so I decided to scramble some egg whites, toss in 3 ounces of the pork to heat up, then Pam fry some breakfast...

Oh, that’s right.  It’s still April in Chicago, so that means you’ll have temps in the 80s one day, and then barely get out of the 40s.  I actually had to turn our heat on, which has been off for probably two weeks.  Luckily all three of us don’t mind a cool house, but yesterday I was downright cold.  Hannah was home for me with...

Another whirlwind weekend is in the books.  What a crazy weather weekend we had in Chicagoland.  It was chilly on Friday, then Saturday it would be sunny and blue skies one second, then I’d look outside and it was snowing sideways like a blizzard, and we didn’t get out of the 30s at all.  Then yesterday it got up to 70 degrees – insane!  But...

Its pretty amazing what you can get done when a job doesn’t get in the way.  The first two days of this week just flew by, probably because I am doing what I love!  Hitting the gym, being Bizzy in my Kitchen, and working on my blog and throwing out my food resume and seeing where it sticks.  I’ve applied for several jobs, and even...

A quick and delicious wonton soup - 4 points!

Sunday we had Christmas with my sister and her family at my Mom’s house.  I always look forward to seeing my niece and nephews.  Even though we only live an hour away from each other, it’s crazy how the days, weeks, and months go by without me seeing them.  Of course, my Mom was just happy to have her favorite child with her! Oh wait,...

It’s funny because we’ve had such a mild winter so far, that when I left the house to walk yesterday morning I thought, wow, it’s a bit chilly!  I looked at my weather app on my phone and it was 40 degrees!  Spoiled much?! It was a bit windy, I guess that’s what made it a little cold, but I am not complaining!  After some...

Thanks for all your kind comments on yesterdays post.  I mainly wrote that for my future self.  A year from now I didn’t want to look back at my blog posts and think “is all she thought about was fucking food?!”  I have to just write that stuff to just get it off my chest so to speak, so thank you for listening. I didn’t...

Yesterday was a weird work day.  My boss had a brief due, which sometimes can mean it’s a high level stress day, or she ends up doing it all by herself.  I just never know.  I got in early, and hour and 45 minutes early because she had some edits to the brief and wanted those edits done before she got in.  Um, the edits? ...

Hello everyone and Happy Thanksgiving! Biz is still on break and we still don’t have any updates on Tony. But that’s no reason I can’t hijack her account to and post something too. Today I bring you my semi-famous Potato Soup recipe. I came up with this maybe a decade ago and although I keep promising myself that I’ll improve it someday, that never happens....
