Pan Fried Singapore Rice Noodles — a hearty, fast veggie-loaded bowl of curry-spiced pan-fried noodles reminiscent of a Curried Pad Thai. Totally satisfying and even better than take-out. Hi guys! Happy New Year! Hope everyone enjoyed the heck out of the remainder of 2019. We gave ourselves a generous couple weeks’ vacation from work and used the time to unwind at home — and it was so restorative. (We also found ourselves making this Shaved Brussel Sprout Salad with White Miso and Soy Eggs on repeat — it was the perfect hearty, plant-based respite from loads of rich holiday dishes.) Like many folks … Read More

Can we talk a minute about things I’m feeling these days? One: Pistachios. I bought this huge bag of them in the shell because we have these friends that always put out pistachios when we go to their house for dinner, and it’s super fun because it’s, like, both a snack and an activity and something to do with your hands when you’re not quite ready for that second pre-dinner beer — except for I’m currently in my own house on my zero-th beer trying to write this blog post and snack at the same time and all I want is to … Read More

You guys, I have a confession to make. I’m hoarding chicken thighs like it’s the apocalypse. That is, if the post-apocalyptic world has bigass freezers for stockpiling things like warehouse store-sized packages of organic poultry, which it probably won’t since all those cable shows depict more of, like, a bunker-fulla-pantry-goods situation, and that seems way more on point. Unless those cable show guys are just suckers, because while they’ll be farting up their bunkers with space-dried beans and peas, I’ll be feeding my fellow zombie escapees these moist and juicy vittles all while using phrases like “moist and juicy vittles” to ensure my … Read More

Oh haaaaaay there. Did you miss me? I took last week off to try my hand at being a Professional Boob Sweat Wiper Offer. And guess what? I nailed it. I’d go into detail, but I have a feeling you’ve already got a pretty rockin’ image going on. Plus, my fellow California gals Lily and Gina waxed far more poetic about the recent heat wave than I could ever hope, so I’ll encourage you to head in their direction(s) if you’ve not already. Bottom line: shit’s been hot. This week, however, we’ve seen a slight respite. As in, Lana even … Read More

curried peach hand pies

It’s peach season peeeeyotches! Holla if ya hear me. Peaches make me think of two things: 1) Face/Off. Which, despite Nick Cage’s sickko one liner about, um, peaches, remains one of the best worst movies ever. 2) PIE! When I was a kiddo, our neighbors had a Babcock peach tree with a limb that draped liberally into our yard and sagged heavy with juicy, white-fleshed fruit, ripe for the poaching. In summer evenings when the valley heat calmed down a beat, my mom would throw open the windows — thus inviting inward the sweetest delta breeze to ever kiss my pillowcase — … Read More
