The View Around Here
August 4, 2012
I haven’t taken many photos this week. I’m not exactly sure why that is. On one hand I’ve been busy but on the other, not really. It’s the zenith of summer after all, and really who wants feel busy all the time. Not me. While staying at my parents I’ve ...
Best Falafel Salad Ever (or my favorite to date)
August 2, 2012
Using soaked, instead of cooked beans, gives the most authentic tasting falafel I’ve ever made. For truly authentic taste I would have to deep-fry them. Instead, I fry these patties in a cast iron skillet seasoned with coconut oil. I add a bit of coconut oil in between the batches ...
Cousins Eat Salad and Other Launch Day Happenings

A Walk to The River
July 25, 2012
They walked down to the river to play. To build sand castles and cities at the river's edge, where the water is shallow and slow. I let them go, with kisses and bug repellent. It had been over an hour, at least, and I missed them. Their laughter and even ...
