Mussels are the Hipsters of the Sea


Not only has being home been an opportunity to take lots of pictures of the two kitties interacting, but I've also been able to take advantage of my mom's fully loaded kitchen. Kitchen aid mixer yay! Different sizes of pots and pans whoo! Because of this I went on a huge cooking bender and ended up making lots of delicious recipes if found on the Smitten Kitchen blog, a favorite of mine. I made German pancakes,moules a la mariniere, the romaine pesto and egg stuffed tomatoes and the cabbage and mushroom galette (with some kale added in too!). They were all very tasty but I cannot recommend the galette enough! Even my extreme meat-eater father enjoyed it and said that he didn't mind that it was vegetarian.

German Pancake


Did you know that mussels have beards? They look more like goatees

Bon Apetite!


Romaine Pest with Egg Stuffed Tomatoes


Amazing crust


Mushrooms and Onions and Cabbage and Kale, oh my!


Ta Da!

Of course Sushi had to supervise everything to make sure that we were doing quality work.

Feel free to drop some food!

  1. Hey Mad! This looks awesome! I've always wanted to make that Galette. I never have gotten around to it though. Maybe this next weekend.
