Well I hope everyone had a marvelous Labor Day weekend! I wasn't in the kitchen as much as I thought I was but it was nice!. We went to Test Subject A's Parents for dinner where I made a fabulous pork kabobs. I had forgotten how much grilled food tastes so friggen good! You ask yourself "Manda why don't you get a grill" well I would love to however we can't due to living in an apartment. So If I want to use a grill I have to use the public one. Which isn't so bad however it's very tiny. But maybe I will buy a small...

I have found that when I do not eat it, I generally feel better and my stomach doesn't hurt like it does, like the woman indicated. But because I have not found a really good everyday bread that isn't costing me 7  bucks a loaf, I find myself playing the well is it worth the irritation game. Now Against The Grain is my favorite gluten free bread but its not always available and they don't make sandwich bread out...

Thank you Getty Images. This weekend I had great ambitions to create some new tasty treats but I fell way short of doing anything spectacular. I Just couldn't bring myself to do anything amazing this weekend like I wanted to. So Instead I played video games, went shopping and looked for my digital camera that I use for this blog. Still enjoyed my ever to short weekend but it lacked in the food department and camera department. I had gone to the store early last week and I bought a container of figs. I don't know why...

EAT from Rick Mereki on Vimeo. He sure looks happy! I found this video yesterday and thought I would share it. I only wish I could travel around the world and eat new things! I think that's one of the reasons I love living here in the city; I may not be able to travel but I can find all sorts of exotic foods right here in my neighborhood....
