Menu: Exciting News
I have some exciting news that I can’t really share yet which is annoying but at least things are good and good news is good any time. I’ve also been making more bentos so obviously I’ve been feeling better and more organized as a person. I got a new bento box that I’ve been using pretty much exclusively which has helped too. Not that I don’t love all my other bento boxes but I guess it just inspired me.

Recipe: Roasted Tomato Soup
This is your very super basic tomato soup. It’s earthy and comforting and warm. I’m always skeptical of vegan dishes but despite not having any dairy (yes, no butter or cream!) the texture of the soup is creamy and thick. I accidentally had a bit of a heavy hand on the red pepper flakes but when enjoyed with a crusty piece of bread the extra spice was just right.

Menu: Cider Fest
This weekend we have the cider festival, hanging out with friends and drinking all the cider. It looks like the temperatures are going to be high this weekend too so I’m sticking to simple, low cook meals until going in the kitchen isn’t akin to being in a food based sauna.
