Mediterranean Quinoa Bowl

There are days when I purchase an ingredient and know exactly what I want to do with it and how to put the meal together.


There are other times when I come across a recipe that beckons me, one that I need to make as soon as possible.


Then there are those days where I have no idea what to cook and I end up falling back on old standbys.

This is one of those dishes.

Orzo & Broccoli Pesto Salad


February. One month closer to spring, yet still so far away.



We received quite a bit of snow this month, more than I can remember in a long time. I was (briefly) stuck in a parking lot with others in the same situation as we collectively dug our way out. The beauty of the situation was that everyone was willing to help each other out.

Sometimes we forget to be kind to each other until we're facing tough circumstances.


Chinese New Year also happened. Lots of symbolic food was consumed and my mom and I made turnip/radish cake together.
