The only local fruit we have in Jersey for the next few months is the apples they holed up from last year's crop. I'll take anything fresh at this point ;)

Right now I too am sick of the apples, kiwi, and citrus from my CSA... but they are not eggplant so I keep on eating them (smoothies here I come!)

I would kill for some fresh berries--strawberries, black/red/marion berries, heck I'd even settle for my least favorite berry--the blue berry.

It is a good thing that I have a blender, or much of this fruit I get would go to waste... instead it goes to my waist instead :)

I did make a totally delicious kiwi lime sorbet-and they're so good for you! I don't mind one occasionally, but I keep getting a giant pile of them each and every week. I don't understand why kiwi season seems to be so damn long and other delicious seasons so very brief.

I hate kiwis (the fruit, not the people from New Zealand). They have a weird texture, and I have yet to find a single recipe for them that doesn't involve some sort of parfait or other lame way to just slice or dice them and serve them raw.

MMm, Castal, you have me craving a baked potato now. I haven't tried Wendy's since I've been GF, but I'll have to consider it on the next roadtrip. Thanks!

2010-02-18T17:13:08.629-08:00

Around here Wendy's is my go-to place for quick cheap and tasty food. For five bucks I have chili with onions and cheese (yup, non glutened cheese)a sour cream and chive baked tater and a sizable salad. Oh... and normally a small frosty as well. I love me my Wendy's!

It is one of the few places that has safe food that is also tasty.

Hah, good thing I don't count, then. :) You can probably tell from the butter in the tomato sauce.

Haha, good calories if you only have about 8 ;-)

2010-02-07T06:23:31.031-08:00

oh yum! If I hadn't just eaten the left over cream cheese frosting (whoops) I would totally be making and munching on these!

Hmmm... these brussel sprouts look mighty enticing. I'm going to give these a go next time I see some at the markets!

Yum. C's been working on perfecting his Thai green curry, but maybe I can redirect his attention to the coconut soup. I'm planning on a big minestrone this week-so hearty and delicious.

Addendum to my previous comment: I just bought a bag of Bob's Red Mill Whole Grain Teff, which says right on the pagkage "Gluten Free" and "Bob's products labeled Gluten Free are batch tested in our quality control laboratory. We use an ELISA Gluten Assay test to determine if a product is gluten free."

If only strawberries were in season! I'm thinking about oranges next time, since that's the fruit we have oodles of now.

Your friend clearly makes wonderful tea, but he doesn't have a website on the Internets? That sounds sad. If I were him, I'd launch something like this today: http://log.matthewhowell.org

Soup! The light, brothy ones you can load with vegetables. I made Tom Kha Gai (Thai coconut chicken) this week. Filling, but not too heavy.

yum! I love the simple yet rustic appeal of roast veg with a lamb rack. I add wilted spinach for extra green. YUM!

I was out in Cali in April and am missing Mariposa bakery more than anything else out there. I wish Mariposa would find its way to Florida with their delicious bagels, pizza, and muffins...very jealous of the San fran's new bakery

Since our cable went out in the MIDDLE of the season finale part 2 last week I had to wait until LAST night to finally catch up on it ... and THEN i could read your post. Urgh, I sooooo feel the same!!! I couldn't quite follow their final decision and I was rooting for Bryan so badly ... I'd love to try any of their foods though :)

Bryan and Kevin were my favs to win as well. When Kevin was eliminated I was really pulling for Bryan. But all three were tops. Can't wait for next season!
