Spring Rolls!

Since our arrival in Seattle I have been enjoying our very diverse neighborhood and the food the area has to offer... Vietnamese food is my favorite at the moment. These SPRING ROLLS are 2 for $5 at most local restaurants... but I decided to try them out myself with my own twist.

These are filled with:
baked tofu, spinach, organic broccoli and carrot slaw, and vermicelli. I made a simple dipping sauce with soy sauce, sesame oil, sriracha, chopped peanuts and water.

They are not nearly as lovely as those served by Pho 88 but we liked them.


Larry just added that we needed mint in them... and they would have been perfect! Hey... I had a mint plant in Tucson... and I just realized it DIDN'T make it here somehow. Darn it.

Did you do this in elementary school? If it was a Tuesday, watch out, 'cause that meant your toes were gonna get stepped on.

Those are my toes (and Maggie) at the beach this weekend.

I go to POTLUCKS...


I have my hands so full during the day that I had to pre-make 77 appetizer meatballs tonight for my pre-schooler's Family Picnic Potluck tomorrow. I love meatballs. So should you. That's all she wrote...

P.S. Don't worry, they'll be drenched in a delicious ketchup-based sauce tomorrow. Yum...
