just our day to day life
Steel Cut Oat Bake I had a whole container of steel cut oats that I found when I cleaned out the pantry that I wanted to use. Steel cut oats take much longer to cook than regular oatmeal and they are made on the stovetop, …
I hate this Superbowl. I’m a bit of a football junkie and I have pretty strong feelings about certain things. Like..how I hate the Giants. Mostly, Eli Manning. I think he is a spoiled, entitled ass who never takes blame for his mistakes, but has …
Mexican Stuffed Portobellos Since we’ve started eating mushrooms, I usually order portobello mushrooms when I get a Green Bean Produce Delivery. I made these last year – it was just a throw together meal of whatever ingredients we had – and we really liked …

Lo’s Pepperoni and Sausage Pizza Lo’s favorite food is pizza, specifically Adriatico’s, but even when I was eating gluten, it always gave me more heartburn/stomach pain than other pizzas, so we didn’t get it very often. A few years ago, we started grilling pizzas and …
