The Secondary Muffin Master



I've been wanting to bake muffins for several weeks and can never get in there to do it. txrad came home from the store today with some bananas and whipped up a batch this afternoon. While I consider myself to be the Muffin Master, I can't tell you how good these are. YUM! He chose bananas instead of my usual blueberry or raspberry because he doesn't like berries. And I'm very OK with that choice.

Crate & Barrel for Pets



Crate & Barrel doesn't have a pet store per se, but there's not law against buying something there for the felines. I'd been wanting to find nicer food bowls and a water bowl now that we have nice floors installed. The current feeding situation was an eyesore. Bowls at the supermarket or the pet stores are overpriced and not very attractive.

Solution: $5 bowls at Crate & Barrel.

Red & Green



txrad is trying a new meal tonight. It involved tofu, some special sauce, and this colorful array of roasted red pepper (from a can) and green peas. I can hardly wait.

The sauce unfortunately is brown. I'm sure it will be delicious, but I said, "under less ideal drinking conditions involving crappy alcohol, this could be a really bad vomit session.... all we need are carrots."

With dried pasilla powder (from pasillas we grew), cumin and coriander just before the smoked paprika was added.

Festive Red Berries



Normally I'd be able to name this plant but unfortunately my brain is spent today. Leave it in comments. txrad can't remember either.
