Recent eats

Hi and thank you. For all of the kind words about my brother and his illness! I am happy to report he is feeling a little bit better. Out of the past 48 hours, he was asleep for 46. Cray. He is making sure to have foods/drinks like crackers and Gatorade to keep his strength up so he can heal. 🙂 I can’t wait until he comes home for Christmas!

What is the best thing you ate this week?!

Cooking with coconut

I went to the grocery store last week and saw it. The coconut milk. It is one of those things I always look at and think about cooking with, but never buy. I finally decided to buy it and cook with it!

It’s no secret in my house that I adore curry. Pretty much no one else does. Fine, more for me ;). I decided to make coconut -curried chicken and vegetables for dinner.

I popped open a can of coconut milk and got to work. First, I marinated the chicken for an hour with olive oil, curry, lime juice, garlic powder, and coconut milk. After marinating, I plopped the chicken in a hot skillet and cooked it in more coconut milk.

I cooked the chicken for 6 minutes on both sides.

Then I put peas, onions, and green peppers into the pan to saute with with…more coconut milk lolz.

The chicken came out nicely and the veggies were creamy.

I will have the recipe for this and stuffed cabbage (from my last post) up shortly.

Other than some easy peasy cooking, my life has been filled with relaxing with animals.

My baby girl Lola was all curled up on the couch^

Jimmy’s dog, Tobi, kept my lap warm.

“The girls” Callie and Lily.

Just for giggles, Jimmy and I went to a pet store recently to browse around. We saw a cage full of cute pups.

Okay, that is all I have for today.

After church Jimmy and I are going out to eat and bowling with friends. Yay 🙂
