WordPress, better cities, and everything else
Homemade food we’ve made in the last four days:
Great start to the fall! Cooking is the best form of humblebrag.
Homemade bagels! This recipe from Sophisticated Gourmet is surprisingly easy and just as good as Gabriel's (local bagel bakery).
Woke up at 5 am. Worked on my Day of REST presentation for a couple hours. Took a 40 minute run to Tualatin Park; feet were sore which means I probably need new shoes. Made cottage cheese pancakes for breakfast. Went to Jordan and Haley’s for Elsie’s first birthday. Came home, put Ava down for nap. Made a couple pull requests against WP-API. Finished installing the second raised bed in the backyard. Cut down some bamboo. Neighbor brought over a few pieces of absolutely amazing brisket. Made steak fajitas, corn tortillas from masa harina, chips from stale tortillas, and guacamole. Had in-laws over for dinner. Drank wine.
Long live the weekend.
Leah and I have been meal planning since Ava was born. I thought it might be fun to start sharing what we’re eating!
Slow cooker prep for tomorrow.
Two bags of Costco pears, transformed into Nature’s best snack.
Yum! A Leah Olson creation — berry blintzes with lemon ricotta filling.
Happy Mother’s Day to all current and future moms. Remember to call yours today, and tell her you love her.
Fresh from Afton Field Farm: four dozen eggs, pork shoulder, pork chops, a chicken, and pork breakfast sausage. We almost need another freezer.
I want one of these when I grow up.
