To Market

We went to the market and for the first time got ONLY what was on our list: Potatoes, Carrots, Onions and Eggs. I believe this is partly because it is 55 degrees IN AUGUST! Perfect weather for warm steel-cut oats for breakfast. Last week we shared a Red Sputnik crepe (Fresh Strawberries, Nutella, Vanilla Whipped Cream) from Satellite Crepes, it was heavenly!

Jesse still hasn't had any of the chicken salad, I hope he likes it!


Later today... Chicken Tortilla Soup.

And.... I think my camera died. It is almost 10 years old. So, until further notice pictures will be taken with my blackberry. Boo.

Curry Chicken Salad

I'm slowly trying to get over my fears of mayo, butter, eggs and creams.

I made my first chicken salad today from this wonderful recipe.

This is a big step for me! I cut RAW chicken without hurting myself, cooked it, and shredded it... with my fingers!

Then, I used a grater, again w/o hurting myself.



This shredded awesomeness has chicken, Fuji apple, carrot, chive cheddar, mayo, plain yogurt,
onion, parsley, mustard powder, curry powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper.

I'm so proud of myself when I cook. Even if its this simple.
Check out the toasty goodness.
