Adventuring off the Kids' Menu: May 2014
http://adventuringoffthekidsmenu.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Adventuring off the Kids' Menu. My attempt to live a life less bland. Saturday, May 24, 2014. The Brits and Jim Beam. As someone of legal drinking age, I enjoy legally drinking. I enjoy vodka, gin, wine, hard cider, and schnapps. In the past couple years, I've really come around to beer. But I cannot stand. Bourbon, whiskey, scotch, or Tennessee sippin' whiskey. But I had a whole bunch of pork belly to cook up. And this lovely recipe from the BBC for Bourbon-Glazed Pork Belly Chunks. Barbecue flavors are...

Adventuring off the Kids' Menu. My attempt to live a life less bland. Tuesday, January 28, 2014. Encouragement from a Four-Year-Old. I had a babysitting double header Saturday. I've already mentioned that the four-year-old I babysit (who told me that night that I can call her "Keeks") has a much more mature palette than I do. She encouraged me to eat cauliflower. For my morning shift, we ate sausages and toast with Nutella and almond butter. Nothing too fancy or adventurous. Also, it was delicious. I bro...

Adventuring off the Kids' Menu: March 2014

Adventuring off the Kids' Menu. My attempt to live a life less bland. Monday, March 31, 2014. Adventures in Dixie (Part One). Joey and I went down to Nashville to visit his family last week. His family has always been very kind and welcoming to me, especially in regards to my strange (or childish) eating habits. His father does most of the cooking and always asks if I am willing to eat a certain meal. Uh," was my eloquent response. I'm going to make macaroni and cheese, too.". Labels: Adventures in Dixie.

Adventuring off the Kids' Menu: July 2014

Adventuring off the Kids' Menu. My attempt to live a life less bland. Saturday, July 26, 2014. Rocky Mountain Adventures, Pt. Two. My dislike of eating birds has been mentioned before. While I have definitely made peace with the idea of eating winged animals, I would never choose chicken or turkey over pork or beef. (I would include lamb in that list, but I'm too poor.). But I am adventurous now! All those green flecks are potentially deadly. Or they're bits of parsley. Tuesday, July 22, 2014. Because va...

Adventuring off the Kids' Menu: June 2014

Adventuring off the Kids' Menu. My attempt to live a life less bland. Sunday, June 22, 2014. Here's the part where I make excuses for my lack of posts. Firstly, I've been watching a lot of Netflix. A lot of Idiot Abroad. And some D- and C-list horror movies. But that's not my only excuse! Secondly, I've been eating a lot of salads and stir-fries. Not super adventurous. Especially now that I kind of love green peppers. (In fact, they were in every meal I had yesterday! What we've all been waiting for.

Adventuring off the Kids' Menu: April 2014

Adventuring off the Kids' Menu. My attempt to live a life less bland. Monday, April 21, 2014. A Bean of a Different Color. April has proved to be a busy month. About a week ago, I had an adventure that I haven't had time to write about until now. Hopefully, my next adventure will make it on-line in a more timely fashion. Joey's running cookbook has a recipe for Stir-Fry. We were going to follow it pretty exactly, but then we got a little lazy. So we basically made this Stir-Fry. Wednesday, April 2, 2014.

Adventuring off the Kids' Menu: A Send-Off Adventure
http://adventuringoffthekidsmenu.blogspot.com/2014/09/a-send-off-adventure.html
Adventuring off the Kids' Menu. My attempt to live a life less bland. Thursday, September 11, 2014. My little baby sister isn't so baby anymore. In fact, she just left to study abroad in Northern Ireland. Before she left, I took her out for a lovely, fancy Italian dinner. We had four courses! And I splurged and bought the absolute cheapest bottle of wine on the menu! We talked about cats, and boys, and how much we were going to miss each other, and how we were getting a little tipsy on wine. Subscribe to...

Adventuring off the Kids' Menu: November 2013

Adventuring off the Kids' Menu. My attempt to live a life less bland. Wednesday, November 27, 2013. Happy Birthday, Mom! Recently, my mother celebrated her birthday. We all went to The Atlantic, scene of the first way-too-hot wings. I got the delicious Mac and Cheese. Joey got a Crab Cake Sandwich that he couldn't convince me to take a bite of. There was some suspicious sauce on it. Joey and I ordered Cheese Fries as well. I just can't say no to cheese and potatoes! My family had not lied to me! Joey and...

Adventuring off the Kids' Menu: Long Overdue (Just Like My Library Books)
http://adventuringoffthekidsmenu.blogspot.com/2014/08/long-overdue-just-like-my-library-books.html
Adventuring off the Kids' Menu. My attempt to live a life less bland. Monday, August 25, 2014. Long Overdue (Just Like My Library Books). Wow It's been quite a while. In my defense, Joey and I did move this month. And we're on a shoestring budget right now. Whatever we make for dinner is pretty much the only option that night. So I can't really afford to adventure. Unless it's for free. This is where political campaign fundraisers come in. Too much pepper in it! And I started eating. And it was spicy!

Adventuring off the Kids' Menu: February 2015
http://adventuringoffthekidsmenu.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Adventuring off the Kids' Menu. My attempt to live a life less bland. Sunday, February 22, 2015. Wow It's been too long. Some of it is laziness. Some of it is being busy. Some of it is trying to save money. But I'm going to say that most of it is not wanting to leave my comfort zone. As I mentioned before. I ordered the Noon O Two. Two giant kabobs and some grilled veggies and cucumber salad in a giant pita. I was not exaggerating the size. The pita even obscures the second kabob! I was nervous waiting f...
