Dealing with a bit of a Crohn‘s flare, so I stayed home for Thanksgiving. Still felt the need to cook, so made a rice pilaf to have along with the pumpkin pie my mom made and left for me earlier. A cup of ginger turmeric tea to round it off.
Otherwise just enjoying a laid back day of sleeping in, watching the dog show, listening to an audiobook, and snuggling with my cat.
Hope everyone who celebrates is having a Happy Thanksgiving!
pickI am obsessed with America‘s Test Kitchen. I love most of their cookbooks and ALLLL of their YouTube videos. Seriously, when I‘m stressed, I read/watch ATK.
I‘m trying very hard to cook smaller amounts with my twins away at college and my son away from home most nights. It‘s so hard, you guys. But I‘m trying.
Tonight I made weeknight beef stew for two. It‘s delicious and easy!! One small gripe: I wish there were pictures for every recipe.

Low key Christmas Eve dinner - Mac and cheese, roasted cauliflower with lemon and capers, a soft bakery roll, and sparkling grape juice in a Christmas glass. My mom got some lemon cookies and made some peanut butter and chocolate candies (my favorite!)
Today‘s #adventathon day 20 post is brought to you by the need to plan for Christmas Eve dinner (just my sister, mom, and I) and April being adorable and snuggly #catsoflitsy
Guess I‘m not looking at my cookbook anymore 😆 #catsoflitsy
I made a homemade skillet pizza (with homemade pizza dough!) for my mom and I for lunch. It tasted as good as it looks 😋
I made homemade tomato soup. Perfect for a cold evening and a break before getting back to homework 📚
Christmas Eve dinner - mac and cheese and sourdough bread with a lemon thyme compound butter. Not pictured: pumpkin pie, multiple cookies 😋
We were making the flan recipe from this cookbook when Brandy‘s daughter was checking out my Litsy account and discovering how internet famous I am 😋 #milestones #Litfluence #kindofabigdeal 🤓
This makes me wish it was summer!
Watermelon and Feta Salad with Mint
“Trim and discard rind from 12 ounces thinly sliced watermelon. Arrange watermelon on plate and sprinkle with 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese and 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint. Serve.”
The drop in temperature (and the emptiness of my schedule, post-election) make me just want to stay inside and do cozy thing. Like cook! And read!
