Saturday Morning at the Farmers Market

Here’s Kate and Cara (Annie’s daughter) this morning at the farmer’s market in Santa Monica. Cara’s eating fresh organic strawberries.
I’m so excited! I just happened to turn on the radio (I have Sirius radio in the kitchen — it’s wonderful) and guess what’s on? Kelly O’Hara, star of “South Pacific” on Fresh Air!

I can’t wait! [...]

I Heart Raw Milk

I cannot even express how awesome it was to watch the victory for raw milk at the state capitol in Sacramento yesterday.
Here’s my photo essay of what happened:
Annie was at my house at 5 am sharp, her kids buckled into their car seats in the back seat. I got Kate loaded into the car, with [...]

I’ve got exciting news.
I weighed myself this morning and guess what – I’ve lost a total of 9 pounds. I’m down to 145 now. This is a new low. Still 15-20 pounds over my pre-pregnancy weight, but still! I’m happy! I had been stuck at 149 for months. I’ve lost 4 pounds just in the [...]

Having a Heat Wave

Playing with the Big Girls

It’s so hot. Way too hot to not have air conditioning. It’s so hot in our house that we had to get out. We fled to the mall so Kate could play at the indoor playground.

Look at those girls next to Kate. They are 2 years and 18 months old, respectively. I can’t believe how [...]

Homemade French Fries

We had Steak Frites tonight. Wow — was it good! I got the steaks (grass-fed) from Rocky Canyon at the farmer’s market this morning. They were melt-in-your-mouth delicious.
I served the meal with Lillet Blanc (a French apertif that tastes like orange) on ice, watered down with a little Pellegrino and a slice of orange. [...]

Southern Fried Chicken Livers

Every time I go to Texas, I have two requirements while I’m there: (1) Good Tex Mex and (2) Dixie House.
Dixie House is a chain in Texas. They serve stuff like chicken fried steak, chicken fried chicken (my favorite — it’s just boneless Southern fried chicken), mashed potatoes and gravy, fried okra, and cornbread. It [...]

Homemade Roast Beef

We arrived back in Los Angeles yesterday afternoon. I’m still tired. It was a very long week.
Right now I’m watching Martha Stewart’s show — they’re making carnitas, salsa verde and roasted tomato salsa. This is something I’m going to do very soon. I love carnitas!
Martha’s saying how she loves “lengua” (tongue) tacos. I’ll have to [...]
