Moments to Myself
Maintain heat, keep an eye on the food.
“Dad can you help me?”
A text from someone.
Back to the food, while one dish cooks, prep another.
“Dad…”
Two days of cooking, one long trip to bring someone replacement pants, and I finally have some time to myself. I know that sounds bad, as in, I have not had any time to myself…boo hoo. Nothing like that, more along the lines of feeling like I have been…

Father's Day Surprise In Song and Bento
Father’s Day Surprise In Song and Bento
I went to bed worn out from the drama of before Father’s Day. I woke up expecting next to nothing. Not because nobody cares, but because Father’s Day is a low key event around here. Imagine my surprise.
I woke up feeling like I had been drinking, odd given that no drinking happened. Possibly rain, oh well most of the night before was spent discussing opening up the bento kitchen. I am all for…

Perpetual Motion
Whew. I just sat down for the first time in a serious relaxing way. Previous sit downs were more of the, “I’m waiting for the next thing” way. Not nearly as satisfying as it may appear. Trust me. My day begins at 6:20 in the morning. That is when I get up and a few minutes later, get the children up. Why am I getting the children up that early, because we live in an agrarian society where the…

How I Spent My Summer: Food
How I Spent My Summer: Food
I have been trying to decide Food or Games. Food won out because I am hungry.
Summer is not a time when I do a lot of new cooking. Typically, I stick to quick and easy dishes and meals that do not generate heat. This place has horrible ventilation, in the winter heat from the kitchen is great when the doors and windows ice over; in the summer heat is bad. However, due to non-typical summer…

Interview Request and Bentoing
Interview Request and Bentoing
I don’t think there will be anything new on the Robotech RPG Tactics–Kickstarter–Palladium Books front for a while. I have put in a request to Wayne Smith to interview him. Unfortunately, I had to use Facebook to put in the interview request because using Palladium Books own contact system is a combination of infuriating and archaic. So, Wayne, if you are reading this and if I was you I would be…

While I Wait, I Cook
While I Wait, I Cook
While waiting for a response from Palladium Books to my initial inquiry, I spent the day gathering information and cooking. As soon as I get a response from Palladium Books, I feel enough time has passed (seven days seems long enough in this day of instant communication), or I gather enough information (mostly reading and analyzing what I have already received and found) I will follow-up on the R…

Moo Goo Bento Friday...Maybe Stir-Friday?
Moo Goo Bento Friday…Maybe Stir-Friday?
Another nice day, which means I can cook. I have to say here, out loud, I long for the day when I have a kitchen where I can have the stove top on and a window open. Here I cannot, unless I want the flame blown out. With Barb starting a rotation on Monday I wanted to get a head start on items for her bento lunches and with the kids saying that they too want to take bentos to school I want them to…

Bentoing Desert
Since I started bentoing for Barb an issue of mine has been desert. Every meal should end in something desertish. I did not like packing cookies or candy as that seems counter to the nature of the bentoing I have been doing. Grapes worked well, but a person can only eat so many grapes before they ask for something else. Unfortunately, by the time Barb’s rotation ended I had not found anything…
