warmth and comfort
out of the box
I made pumpkin bread with cranberries and walnuts last night. It’s actually from a mix - but this mix is a Trader Joe’s brand which came in a care package from bodacious babes Erin and Caroline in Seattle. It’s really good, although a tad fluffy for a quick bread. Highly recommended.

I made meatloaf tonight with kale and mashies. And even though the title of this here blog is one of the prime directives, I do try to make healthy meals so we might live long enough to enjoy our retirement savings. The meatloaf was made with ground turkey and the sauce is not ketchup but a mix of red currant jelly and chili sauce. That’s not necessarily healthier, but I think it tastes better than ketchup. The mashies are baked russets with skin on, green onions, canola margarine, and nonfat plain yogurt. The kale is half stir-fried half steamed.
