Grilled King Crab

February 15, 2014 by Monica in Dinner, Events, Grilling, Main Courses, Quick Meal, Seafood, Savory

Sweet Corn and Shrimp Chowder Soup

January 19, 2014 by Monica in Quick Meal, Savory, Seafood, Soup

I been so weak and tired that I could not bring myself to do anything else but stay in bed, read and hope that this nasty thing will just go away once and for all.

During my time in bed, besides reading huge amounts of trashy romantic novels, watching the whole season of Orange of the new Black and House of cards, I Pinterest myself to death.  Since I was not cooking in real life, I let pinterest cook for me virtually by browsing hundreds of pins about all the food I wanted to eat by was to lazy to get up and cook.

Wild Rice and Butternut Squash Salad

This past thanksgiving among the turkey, sweet potato soufflé, gravy, stuffing and all the other stuff that was on the table I manage to serve a vegetarian dish for some of my guest.
