Day 332: Lime

Homemade guac again tonight - I think I have a problem.

Day 329: Guacamole

I made homemade guacamole for the second time last night. I think I overestimated my skills the first time, because I realized it's pretty hard to not make great guacamole. Yum.

Day 327: Sandwich

I love how sometimes the dinners I'm not that excited about can end up being the best ones. Yum!

Day 323: Chips

Reason number 815 that I love Eugene - there are no less than three fish and chip shops within a couple of miles of our house. Tonight we tried out Newman's Fish Co., which is just a walk-up window that gives you fish and chips wrapped in paper and delicious spicy clam chowder.

Day 302: Po'boy

First day of vacation! We woke up super early and 11 hours later we were in Metairie, Louisiana. For dinner I had a shrimp po'boy, the first of many on this trip.

Day 286: Cake

Mom made Tim a welcome home cake, which was delicious.

Day 257: Broccoli II

Still on my broccoli kick. Hopefully this habit sticks around.

Day 256: Cooking

I love it when Tim cooks dinner.

Day 249: Broccoli

I used to think of broccoli as but a vessel for ranch dressing, but lately I find myself snacking on it frequently. I think I finally figured out I love fresh broccoli, I just hate it when it's cooked.

Day 248: Muffins

One thing I definitely know how to make is muffins from a pouch - they are Jenn-proof.

Day 243: Grape

"It's like that one grape in the bunch that never got to be a grape."

Day 242: Redemption

Remember how I said I accidentally made some pastry dough while attempting to make cupcakes? That wasn't an exaggeration. I absentmindedly started mixing butter and flour instead of butter and sugar for several minutes before I realized my mistake. I almost threw the whole thing in the trash, but then I realized if I added some more flour I could make pastry dough, so I went for it and stuck it in the fridge for later. My baking redemption came in the form of some very mediocre cheese straws.

Day 237: Stir-Fry

Wednesdays are Mongolian Stir-Fry night at the O Club, which happens to be a stone's throw from our apartment. We had so much fun eating our too-spicy stir-fry and talking/dreaming about the future that I think we will make it a weekly tradition.

Day 223: Murry's

I think I have officially hit all of my favorite restaurants on this trip home - Flat Branch, Osaka, Shakespeare's, and last night, Murry's. Yum!

Day 198: Dinner III

Mom made pub-style bangers and mash tonight (with veggie sausages, of course). It was as good as it looked!

Day 190: Chick-fil-A

*Cue angels singing*

Got to stop at Chick-fil-A for lunch on my quick trip to Springfield. When, oh when will we get one of these in Columbia (a real one, not a food court one)?

Day 156: Christmas

Tim enjoying his Christmas pudding with brandy butter and cream. Happy Christmas!

Day 152: Cake

We made it to my Aunty's house in Orpington - she has been busy cooking all week for us.

Day 133: Dinner II

Turkey burger on wheat bun, pepperjack cheese, spinach, red onion. YES.

P.S. Thanks, everyone, for the sweet comments yesterday!

Day 131: Dinner

I have been in love with Chicken Voilà since college. Now Tim is in love with it too.
