Can of tomato soup, need to be utilized. Leftover sauteed ground pork. Frozen peas.
Throw everything in, hope for the best. 🙂
The tomato soup, out of the can was a little too sweet, The Mouse threw in a small scoop of miso paste. Yum. 🙂
Happy and safe new year’s eve.
Be well, eat well.

‘Tis the season, The Cat and The Mouse’s house has snacks, more than usual. A good and kinda bad thing. Good that there are snacks, bad that there are snacks (temptation). Sigh.
Whole Foods, The Mouse picked up when picked up the gray salt (last minute gift). Couple minutes in the toaster oven, good to go. 🙂
“Spur of the moment” purchase. The Cat picked up from Foodland (when looking for a little something something for the trash collector).
A pleasant surprise, crunchy and tasty. Nom. 🙂
Be well, eat well.

Ground pork, sauteed, seasoned with salt, chicken bullion, pepper. Tablespoon of whiskey to deglaze.
Add water, bring to boil, clean and cut lettuce, simmer one or two minutes. Drip or three of toasted sesame oil to finish. Easy peasy.
The Cat liked.
No recipe eats.

“Breakfast” was just “coffee” for The Mouse.
Then, off to church.
Lunch, a take-out from nearby Zippy’s.
Vegetarian chili because of the corn and mushrooms.
Dinner, prix fixe at Umi by Vikram Garg.
Apologies, the blurry photo, The Mouse got excited, hungry. 🙂
Pani puri, bonito shavings, wasabi tobiko. The pani puri was good crunchy support for the ahi tartare. Quantity was more than generous.
Chef made The Mouse a salad instead (dairy issue).
Nom. The Mouse did not miss the bisque at all. 🙂
The Mouse’s bowl was dairy-free.
Server warned dish was spicy. The Cat didn’t mind. Too spicy for The Mouse.
Okra tempura, ‘ulu mousseline. Great braise, The Mouse thinks chef likes to cook beef cheeks. Good job. 🙂
The Mouse got a bowl of mango sorbet.
Those that celebrate, hope your Christmas was full and merry. 🙂
Be well, eat well.
The Mouse.
