Crumbs, 2/17

February 17, 2009

I made a kick-ass tofu stir-fry tonight, using broccoli, shredded carrots, scallions, and red pepper in a peanut sauce, based on a Soba, Tofu, and Vegetable Stir-Fry recipe from body + soul magazine. What an easy way to eat a lot of veggies. I felt a little indulgent cooking it because I was the only one eating: A. went into work with J. today, and G. went out to dinner with my mom. No photo, though, because the camera also went into work! (I almost feel like I didn’t really cook it, if I couldn’t photograph it…)

This is why you’re fat. A blog devoted to photos of creations that make deep-fried Oreos look reasonable. For instance, Junk Food Pizza: “Large meat pizza covered with potato skins, mozzarella sticks, mini taco’s, jalapeño poppers and onion rings.” Oh dear lord, I’m ill just looking at the photo. Seen at lisannesblog.net.

I’m looking into a share through the Purple Dragon Co-Op. I think, ultimately, I am more interested in eating locally than all-organic, all the time. Since the co-op obviously has more locally-sourced produce in the warmer months, it may be more food than I can use, along with my farm share from Roxbury. Still mulling it over, though.
