muffin love

I had to share this serendipitous baking occurrence:

I couldn’t bring myself to tear those muffins apart. However, onefish took care of that problem when I turned to put my camera on the counter. I looked back to find one lonely muffin left on the table, and a self-satisfied toddler running towards the back porch to devour his spoils.

dinner for the dudes

I had some help from onefish making this delicious pizza:

We didn’t get too elaborate with the pepperoni because, as it turns out, even metal cookie cutters have a hard time slicing through the spiced meat. Still, bluefish gave it two thumbs up. Next time, I think we’ll try some different veggies and some thinly sliced chicken breast. Oh, and we’ll make the dough from scratch.

are you there Buddha? it’s me, sushi.

Behold my second try at veggie rolls:

This time I actually made sushi rice (complete with rice vinegar, sugar and salt) and I added cucumber to the mix to keep the avocado and carrots company. And, I shaved fresh ginger for the eating. The finished product was delightful. Even bluefish gobbled them up without pause.
