The concept comes from one of my favorite episodes of Radiolab.
The reason I want to work in Heather's upstarting bakery... I really need to recreate a salad I had from here once... it was braised spinach, mint, salmon, and somehow it was like the best thing I ever ate.
A feeling I want everyday. I settle for rubber mats. Also - I still own these sandals even though I think they're absolutely irreparable. I should really take them to a cobbler. When was the last time YOU were at a cobbler? They do amazing things...
This is what silence really is. It's actually really, really, really LOUD.
This is how I like to travel. This, amazing food after this, and then a museum the next day when you can get lost and feel your soreness and exercise your prions. I miss this... and it's the incentive for a lot of things I want in life: someone to explore with, freedom to go, money to justify.
These are the colors I wear and love. It's like olive, jade, and eggplant, ripe pumpkins, slate and clove. I can't help it. I haven't bought new clothes in forever... but even when I do - I know I'll still be looking for these colors.
In other news - I'm making a list of all the dishes that are SAVORY from Elana's Pantry that I really want to make. I'm back on zone because I think I'm making it my official goal to compete in sectionals and in general, to up my game as an athlete. Zone helps. I'll be liberal with the fat in the morning but not in my main courses, it'll be 11 to 12 blocks of PRO and of CHO...that just fits my lifestyle.
Agave Lime Chicken - I just love simple dishes and the idea of throwing everything in a pan - waiting and anticipating the tastes, smells, and colors that develop... and then just trying not to eat it right after it comes out. I should really be roasting a chicken every week through the winter and then using the bones for soup.
Chili Chicken served with Napa Cabbage and Shiitake Mushrooms - I think I'm really going to love this one... I have to say I'm really unfamiliar with dried chilis. That part's going to be a bit of an experiment. It's been too long since I've had my favorite mushrooms!!!
Mango Chicken - so, so easy and I bet I will love it... easy ingredients!
Salmon with Mushroom and Red Pepper Sauce - again with the shiitakes... and I like the idea of working a little harder to make a really nice sauce - especially if it's made of red peppers. :)
Turkey Chili - When it gets cold, there's nothing better than this. Uber simple - except for poblano peppers. What are those? Where do I get them? What do they taste like? Peppers and I, we need some quality time.
That's it for now...gotta go through the veg for more ideas...
