I like taking pictures of food I cook/eat. I sometimes draw, paint and craft things for people I love. I live with a man who just so happens to be the love of my life, so it's pretty convenient.
My current priorities are to be healthy, save money for a bigger home and get back to creating things.

I’m such a sucker for runny yolk.
Fried Brown Rice Tofu Pockets
Brown rice, pork loins (cubed & marinated w/ minced garlic + low-sodium soy sauce), mushrooms, corn, carrots, green beans, peas, eggs, aburaage (bean curd pockets), S&P, sriracha
Ever since I saw a different version of this “dish” a few days ago on a blog, I’d been craving it. So today, I stopped by the Chinese market to pick up some Korean bean curd pockets, which were unfortunately smaller than I had wanted (but was all they had.) Nevertheless, these came out DELICIOUS and I think they’d make great healthy appetizers for parties as well!
Nearly Vegan Burger
Boca original vegan patty, whole wheat bread, Veggie Slices soy-based American cheese (not vegan), avocado, grilled onion, spinach, black pepper
I had every intention to walk across the street to buy myself an artery-clogging monster burger and/or chili cheese fries, but a conversation with my friend changed all that. So I begrudgingly got out all of the ingredients and started slicing, grilling, toasting. And I’m happy I did because that was absolutely delicious! Now, to await the return of my boys. This lady is lonely.
