  1. CL...enjoy your day near my hood and happy moms day to you too!
  2. Great to hear Irish....only camped once at the wawona campground...excited to stay at the hotel...added bonus the restaurant has a fabulous food menu - looks like the chef will be able to do something safe for me and they serve one of my favorite zins for eight bucks
  3. Fancy! Dinner tonight is paleo pizza for me and whatever we find at the Wawona Hotel Restaurant for the hubs as we are headed towards Yosemite right now....can't wait Oh....cuz I'm getting a bit of grains back I added a touch of flour to my paleo cauliflower-crust to help make it even closer to real pizza....so mine is now paleo (ish) pizza
  4. I used Bob's Red Mill because it was what I had on hand -- it calls for fava bean (or rice or sorghum) -- think the potato starch is important though. These were incredible to cook too -- I've made a lot of smaller "flour" tortillas -- usually I make gluten-free crepes -- but these were even easy to flip once the pans were right temp -- kinda like pancakes...
  5. Some of you know of my quest to make a good large flour tortilla -- it has been over five years since my kids have had a decent sized burrito -- living in the land of Mexican Fast Food makes that beyond difficult. The Quest is over! Thanks to a recipe passed to me by another nonWE -- we now have safe gluten free (decent sized) burritos for the first...
  6. oh cool...i forgot about the cones I had stashed -- will give them to the kids with Double Dark Chocolate hanging out in the freeze. Another attempt at man-sized flour tortillas -- if they work out -- Carne Asada Burritos -- if not it'll be taco salad tonight
  7. Come on over quick -- I'm not going to trial mine any time soon -- but you have to be fast -- just told son he could have it!
  8. Can't remember when my frig ever met a set schedule...tacos, etc and burgers sound perfect! You sportin' any Gelato? teasing...there is another thread you should join...
  9. Welcome Jody -- Dinner sounds great
  10. Baked Chicken French Green Beans in Cream of Celery with Green Onions and Cheese on top -- pseudo traditional thanksgiving green bean cassarole
  11. Adobada is history...also in KFG...in fact the day got away from me so had both kids jumping to help get it in the crock by 3:30pm -- record prep -- maybe I'll wait until the last minute more often
  12. mine does not paint -- unless I'm in 'amoeba' state -- he builds, I paint hmmm...do good painters network -- I'll check my cali-guys -- never know.
  13. Holy Guacamole!!!! (actually one of my frequent exclamations - much to my children's dismay) At least I actually made Guacamole today The flipping icing for the Margarita Cake smells like a Margarita! Guess it should with the citrus, triple sec and tequilla, but still...fun stuff
  14. yep...still recovering from walking down the stairs a few weeks back -- just now thought to myself...yep it's much better, perhaps its time to lose the ankle brace -- um no -- tried to stand on my tippy toes to grab the Tequilla for the cake and ouchie! hope your tummy is better very soon -- I'm sure brownies will make it better
  15. You can blame me for the extra calories -- but the "Lucy" moves are all yours -- I know because I am Queen Klutz and do that stuff to myself all the time -- Irish too!
  16. Only tools inside this house are mine and they are not allowed to migrate to the shop! Cobbler's kids had no shoes.....Contractor's wife does all minor repairs (otherwise I have to hear either A: why blankity blank is not needed or B: get right to it - contractorease for one day in the future if I remember the conversation) Luckily when things are...
  17. Thanks for the giggle...REALLY needed it...long f$#%ing morning dealing with peeps insurance and other such fun things -- now I'm ready for a rita!!!!! Still can't do citrus so this chickee is having a glass of pinot to toast my neighbors to the south --- opening right now!
  18. coming right up...although may need to sell one of the kids to pay for fresh limes...jeez those suckers got expensive -- time to plant a lime tree
  19. I use BRM vanilla cake mix for all flavored cakes...will toss in some frozen oj concentrate and call it "Orange Cake Mix"
  20. All this talk of shipping Margies around the country got me thinking...I'm not pouring Margaritas tonight -- I'm going to make a cake! Gotta love google: http://allrecipes.com/recipe/margarita-cake/ Edited to add...with the price of limes...mine will not be decorated with the little green guys.
  21. I love chores as gifts -- hubs deep cleans the kitchen floor for me this week every year -- my birthday follows right after Mother's Day so it gets lost in the Mother's Day celebration for my Mom every year -- my crappy old kitchen floor gets shiny next weekend -- it really is one of my favorite gifts -- sometimes I ask for it for Christmas too
  22. Margarita - do you like blended or on the rocks? salt or no salt?
  23. Mother's Day is this coming Sunday -- shall I send a memo to your kids It's hard to miss Cinco de Mayo this close to the border -- the college crowd and older folks start partying about the 2nd or 3rd and stop on about the 7th! I actually warned my new drivers of major holidays and using extra caution for drunk drivers and yep, include the 5th of May...
  24. ¡Feliz Cinco de Mayo! Carne Asada Tacos (perhap Adobado Tacos) and hub's Refried Beans from scratch tonight -- hmm -- I think I'll make the hubs a fresh Margarita when he gets home this evening! Funny, never heard of that whole Fourth of May nonsense before this past week and it went viral!! Was fun and the hubs had a great idea -- we watched 'New ...
  25. I use Betty Crockers and add a cup of choc chips...everyone always raves -- so simple
