Sandwich #243–“The Green Wreck” Tofu with Greens, Asparagus and Green Pepper
Feeling guilty after all of those arepas?
Music Sounds Better With You
Mornings at our apartment include robes, coffee, good food, and music. E and I turn on anything from Bob Seger to Jay Z in the morning, depending on who can get to their Spotify playlist faster. This morning was a jazzy kind of morning, so E put on “Cheek to Cheek”, by Ella Fitzgerald and […]
Sandwich #242–“Sweet Morning” Arepas with Caramelized Plantains and Blackberries

Day three of arepas. Today, a quick lunch for E and I.

Sandwich #238–“Recharge” Beet, Goat Cheese and Greens Sandwich
After staying up until 2:30 AM last night writing (yes, my computer worked after dropping it on my foot), I needed vitamins.

Homemade Bread: It Just Got Real
This should have happened a long time ago. But finally, I’m going there.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! In honor of the holiday—or, just a coincidence—I made a fairly, sorta, kinda green sandwich over the weekend.

Sandwich #235–“Just For Laughs” Bangers and Mash Sandwich
Some sandwiches aren’t really for consumption. They’re just for laughs.
Don’t You Just Love When…
you get up at 6:30 AM to make mashed potatoes for your boyfriend’s bangers and mash sandwich, and you’ve boiled and peeled your potatoes, and you’re all set to mash them into lovely whipped mashed ‘taters…. …and you realize you don’t have a potato masher. (I made do with a cocktail muddler and a fork.)
Sandwich #234–“Hungover Sunday” Fried Chicken and Cornbread Waffle Sandwich
You knew I was going there. And deep down, you knew I’d be going there after a bender.
Sandwich #233–“Waffles of Insane Greatness” Banana, Raspberry and Nutella Waffle Sandwiches
The first time I used my waffle machine, I made an insanely great sweet treat for my sweet.
New Toys!
Oh, how I love shiny new things! Brunch this weekend is going to be bananas. #chickenandwafflesandwiches
Looking Back
E and I’s anniversary is coming up at the end of the week. That inspired me to take a look back at what we were doing a year ago at this time:
Sandwich #232–“The Big Pot” Shrimp Etouffee Wraps
Dinner guests force you to up your kitchen game.
Sandwich #231—“Diffuse Anger with Laughter” Snack-Sized Muffuletta
I love E to pieces, because he makes me laugh when I want to destroy things.
