Gastography

I am a slacker. I haven’t posted a recipe in half a month, and I have squat to show for it (except for a couple of extra pounds and a missing desire to hit the gym).

In my defense, I was out of town for two weeks (yeah, yeah, I know, I still managed to post my Charcutepalooza entry on time but couldn’t manage a recipe or two… slackness!) and then my DH was out of town the week after I got back. During the time I was gone, I ate lots of sushi, pho, Thai noodles and good-for-you foods like Angie’s Subs (the Jack Del Rio to be exact) and tied for the best BBQ ever at Mojo’s No. 4.

During the week he was gone, I ate uninspired grains with greens and variations of hashed browns and eggs… twice. What can I say? I have a sickness and it’s name is the magical mythical combination of eggs, potatoes & bacon 🙂

I also took a short trip back to NC for the other tied for #1 BBQ ever at The Pit.

I’d have to have a side-by-side tasteoff to determine which I prefer. Both are awesome, both have their strengths and next to no weaknesses. Now if only one shipped to South Florida…

Now that life has returned back to (semi)normal, I will work to post more recipes. Working toward having recipes worth posting is step #1 — I feel like I’m in a culinary rut and need to break free. Break free, but stick to meals that are not only good; are low in fat, high in whole grains, and packed with veggies. Time to hit the inter webs!
