nailz


I don't cook anymore...ratgate 2011 freaked me out. I will not go into details on this blog, for fear of loosing my 5 readers. I do however eat dry cereal whilst sitting in my living room painting my nails. OH yes, I am up on the nail polish trends.  That's all I got.

Summer special

Yum. Asparagus, Broccolini, Parmesan, Lemon...



Summer here we come. Looks like the new food plate, no? No, you're right it doesn't. Whatev, it was a weekend, At least it wasn't white chocolate chips and a bowl of pickles for dinner. No, I've never done that...
Asaparagus salad was planned. The remainer was improtomtu. That's ok. It's not like I follow directions anyways.



Salad. Delish. Seriously. Add this to your arsenal.




Lemon Chicken. Marinade includes freshly squeezed lemon, spicy mustard, EVOO, S&P, Shallot, Crushed garlic to taste and "honey". I subbed brown sugar. MF needs a better pantry. oh well. If you want protein powders you went to the right place ;) Cook the chicken in the marinade, covered, on the stove till done. Bam. Original recipe.




Clean out the fridge red potatoes: quartered potatoes, simmered for a while in water. Then I got bored and decided to just add stuff to the "cooking fluid"...to include : red and balsamic vin,  S&P, garlic, shallots, lemon leftovers. Obv you are going to follow this plan exactly and will have a bit of extra shallot from your asparagus goodness and some recently squeeze lemon exoskeletons...add em to the pot...why not.

Try it. It's healthy and easy. Trust me, because I'm a lazy lady and would not lead you astray.

Drama.

 Teaser. I'll post actual recipes tomorrow...maybe. This was good though...



I have not been blogging, but things have been happening. Usually things are great. Sometimes, things are a bit rocky for me and the manfriend...or mostly just the manfriend. He can be, well, unlucky.


case and point. As we stood on the front step of my apartment, we witnessed this ridculosity.

BAL of .277 is probably not ok to drive. Not like i'm a docta or anything.


Girlie, you hit a parked car. For realz. 8K in repairs.



oh no Honda. MF's infiniti flew about 5 feet, and tapped my bumper. ouch.


then...the fish tank overflows and floods the apartment.


At least I got to pick out replacement fish. Yep MF lets me pick out all the fish... He was raised correctly I tell ya:)


And. The Madison menu now includes smoothies courtesy of the newly purchased magic bullet. Blueberries, almond milk and spinach... yum

While I was in glorious WI a rat was trapped in the toilet one floor below me for 24 hours. Now, he is missing. Wet, mad, and missing. Ghetto sewer rat. sick, omg.
