As you might have noticed, I’ve really been struggling with the desire to keep this up with daily pictures lately. I don’t know why this happened, I actually photographed everything through the end of our vacation and that wasn’t a big deal, but now that we’re back I keep starting posts and then never finishing [...]

Roasted carrots. Sautéed onions in butter. Combined this in a pot with some water, boiled it down. Added salt, pepper, curry, and garlic powder. Roasted kale chips, added that and more water. Boiled it down. Pureed it with coconut milk and heavy cream. Quite good. 0 I like This

Time to start food blogging again! You’ll see a slight tweak to my eating after reading Why We Get Fat. I’m testing out the idea that I don’t have to stress so much about quantity of calories, but more about quality. I’m trying to really be aware of the glycemic index ranking of the foods [...]

Roasted at 450 degrees for about 20 minutes. Chard. Heat up coconut oil in the pan. chop up the stems of the chard into very [...]

We’re nearing our last few hours in Poland and though I stopped taking pictures of things (in part because we stopped having variety, in part because I was a bit over it ) I wanted to unload the rest of the photos on my phone here.

Started my day with a run, and some berries from the garden We ate lunch at a building first constructed in the 8th century, that at one point was used as a castle! Appetizer was lard with bits of meat, and coat cheese with onion and green onion chunks to be spread on bread. Look [...]

We are back on Poland where the food looks quite different than it did over the last 10 days. Breakfast Canned herring for lunch. I could handle it again. I’m working on liking types of canned fish other than tuna Chicken nuggets, gnocchi, tomatoes for dinner 0 I like This

A small breakfast on the morning before we leave Italy. I kept things small because we were dining at Osteria Francescana in Modena! San Pellegrino rates it one of the Top 10 restaurants in the world. We chose The Classics at 130 euros per person. I’m not going to narrate the courses because you can [...]

Lunch was at our hotel. It was obvious they were catering to tourists because the portions were enormous. Smoked trout and pink peppercorns Caprese salad Meats n’ mozzarella The Lake Garda fish. I think it’s called Lavarello? Gelato for dinner, our last in Italy and not my favorite choices. Amarena (my favorite flavor ever but [...]
