Pork chops with garlic powder, smoked paprika, powdered rosemary, galangal, black pepper, and a little too much salt. Broccoli with garlic, galangal, olive oil, and salt. And a mix of carrots, white potatoes, and sweet potatoes cut into spears and tossed with olive oil, garlic powder, rosemary powder, smoked paprika, and salt. Everything roasted at 450 F for 30 minutes.

A dip/sauce of roasted garlic puree, ginger puree, lime juice, and yogurt, topped with a sprinkle of za'atar to make it pretty.

Fresh strawberries, maple syrup, and rice pudding for dessert. (The rice pudding was made with a mix of coconut milk, sweetened condensed coconut milk, lactade milk, eggs, cinnamon, and fiori di sicilia.)

Tomato broth and rice soup. Cheesey toasted bagels.

KAF whole wheat brownies with peanut butter and chocolate chips. (Dangerously yummy.)

Stir fry with carrots, onions, sweet potatoes, broccoli, cauliflower, and kale. Ginger, garlic, soy sauce, and rice vinegar sauce. White rice with garlic, butter, and lime juice.

Pork chops with Mitchell Street seasoning from Penzey's, kinda dried out cherry tomatoes scattered around on the pan.

Slow roasted potatoes, sweet potatoes, onions, cauliflower, and chickpeas, with garam masala.

Today the cat got to go to the vet. She doesn't mind the vet itself so much, but getting there and back is an exercise in cat torture. The box is no fun. The box in the car is even less fun. And then just as she's recovering she's back into the box and into the car again. Luckily now she is at home where she can hide, but I expect she's not talking to me for at least the rest of the afternoon.
