The head the tail the whole damn thing

Well, this is gonna be a mish mosh post. I forget to take pictures, but whatevs.

 My leg is still effed in terms of stamina, so I'm not a cooking machine. So I made the cooking come to me, as you'll see a little later. 


I got a little rice cooker/steamer to enable my laziness. Cooking is millet with vegetable stock and tofu. Steaming is broccoli and cauliflower. 

I add this:


And the awful food pic that results??


I think I bought that from oriental trading company in high school and left it in the mens room.

I also made delicious salad.


That's broccoli and tomato and really good cucumber and avocado and baby arugala mix topped with sriracha and tahini.

And then I went to the mets game! First if the season. Lots of hot prep.


The shirt that gets me lots of compliments from overweight men. A beloved 29th birthday gift from Lindsay Zamora that I'll treasure for life.


Would you buy a bobblehead from this man?!?!?

So, with the rice cooker, I rediscovered beans. I lived off them for awhile, but like any OCD freak, I eat in phases. So I had to quit them to rediscover how much I love them. 

This shit (pardon my French) is where it's at:


That's rice with turmeric, pinto beans, steamed red peppers, and avocado. Nothing else. No accessories needed. Put me on a dessert or desert island, and I'll live happily with my volleyball.

Til next time.

P.S. 

Oh and the mets lost, of course.

Easter

My updating has been like my cooking. Sporadic. I need to write and post before I forget about Easter. 

It was a beautiful day. I went to lovely Southold Long Island, to my friend's brother's wife's family's summer home. That's a lot of apostrophes. 

It was great. Lots of good food, lots of people. 

 
As you can see from this turkey....not all the food was good. After this picture, the turkey stood up and sang "Mammy" and "My Old Kentucky Home". But seriously, shoe polish is a great marinade.


If that bird tastes as good as it looks.....

And for the coo duh grats, some delicious pizza rustica from mrs Pesqueira


That's the stuff. Mmm mmm mmm. 

The house is right by a beach, so I took a nice picture of people:



And here's a picture of my legs:


More soon!
