Our people.
Time Travelers Antique Mall in Springfield is as much an experience as it is a store. It is a 13,000-square-foot building, packed wall-to-wall with anything and everything one can possibly imagine. Reed Lucas, the co-owner of Time Travelers, says, “We are a collection of about 53 individual business owners that are dealers at our antique mall, and they scour the entire Pacific Northwest and even into Northern California for retro vintage antiques.”

Fresh salsa from the garden.

Getting a few more recipes under my belt before I return to work after another amputation (just a transmetatarsal).

Made #YummSauce for tonight's homemade YummBowls (checkout Yumm Cafe, a regional favorite in the Pacific Northwest).

I also made tzatzicki sauce and a Greek-inspired chicken salad.

But, what I'm most excited about is the mango orange coconut frozen yogurt. So, tonight will be filled with #Yum and #Yumm!

Fuck #TraitorTrump the #PedophilePOTUS
Fuck our murderous #FascistRegime

Homemade frozen yogurt with thornless blackberries from the garden using local Nancy's yougurt.

I recently realized that I could make frozen yogurt with far less effort than ice cream. That's a big win for me. Flavored with homemade vanilla extract, organic maple syrup, and honey. More winning.

I also made another loaf of 100% whole wheat honey sourdough. It will go well with whichever soup I make from the chicken stock I'm currently preparing.

Another loaf of 100% organic whole wheat sourdough. Used organic maple syrup to encourage fermentation.

Delicious.
Far from a perfect bake, but the flavor is fantastic.

I'm also thinking about trying my hand at falafel. The chickpeas have soaked, so I just have to get my act together and give it a go.

Biscuits.

They're almost as important to me as pizza.

Today is going to be a great day.

I'm loafing around this morning.
#Meatloaf for lunch.

Used virtually the same mix as yesterday's meatballs. The spices pictured are for the sauce.

Today, I'm all about balls:
#Meatballs.

I'm also making #SundayGravy.

Yes, I know it's only Saturday, but it tastes so much better after allowing the sauce to cool and rest for a day.

And, we didn't finish the last loaf of homemade sourdough wheat bread, so croutons it is!

Fuck #TraitorTrump,
The #PedophilePOTUS.

I turned the leftover tamale filling into a fairly decent stew with loads of peppers, onions, olives, hominy, and fresh sweet corn. I also used some leftover enchilada sauce.

It was meant to be a soup, but I didn't do any research; my tamale dough dumplings disintegrated. They did, however, make a great thickening for the concoction.
