Even Though He's Hard to Understand

Sometimes its hard to be a patient woman, in a relationship, with a man that does things that you don't understand.  I won't bore you with how I send this stranger to get zucchini for dinner and he comes back claiming they had none and later that he doesn't know what it looks like.  I won't bother showing you the little note I made, stating it looks just like a cucumber because that's where I'm at in this.  And it pains me to know that if any of the three markets were out of nearly every vegetable, which they have never been, you could always count on them having zucchini.   I won't go on about him buying two ginormous spaghetti squash, saying he remembered I said something about it also being called squash. 
So when he came back with bell peppers and tomatoes at least, I chose to roll with it and stuff those with tiny meatballs and quinoa, parsley, corn and black beans.

I Like Watchin' the Puddles Gather Rain

Spring rains are on my top 5 most loved things
Rain Day!
Puffy Omelet
I found an easy way to make 4 eggs tastes like 20 with this super puffy omelet.  I didn't want to pull out the mixer, so I just hand beat the whites and yolks.  What a treat!  You could impress someone with very little effort.  But for me it was all about getting a big bold, egg flavor hit.  Success!




I was in shock that it actually worked.  I thought you would need to do more to get it to poof. 

Baked Stuffed Tomatoes
Later that night I wanted something fresh and tangy.  The one thing I learned about baked stuffed tomatoes is to be sure to season the inside cavity really well.  Baking brings out the sweetness and intensifies that fruity taste. I stuffed with hamburger, mexican rice, parsley, cilantro, onion and lemon zest.
