the glass is half full of luxury.

super simple chocolate (my fave!) milkshake, that's totally VEGAN! woot!
as you know, i LOVE the coconut milk ice cream. i took a scoop of that and let it soften in a glass. after about ten minutes, i added maybe half a cup of chocolate (unsweetened) almond milk. amazing.
the coconut ice cream on it's own is super duper rich and creamy, it has an amazing texture and taste that trumps plain-jane ice cream. this mini-dessert was a perfect end to a hot summer day.

eat it!
now!

also, enjoy my shameless breckenridge brewery plug.

roasted garlic and...

shrimp! and spinach!
*drool*
i pan fried some shallot rings in a low-medium heat pan to begin. after, i added some butter spray, chopped garlic (you know i love that stuff in the jar!), and spinach. after i cooked that through, i put some shrimp into a stone dish, coated the bottom with spray butter and garlic, and added my shrimp. i got the oven ready to a rip-roaring 400*, topped my shrimp with spray butter, and a pinch of panko.
bam!
those shrimp enjoyed a lovely 5-7 minutes in the sauna, before i broiled they got off for a minute or two.
*drool*
my perfectly cooked shrimp made their way out of the oven and jumped on top of my delicious spinach mix.
this dinner was quick & easy.... just like your mom!

...wait, have i made that joke already?

holy crap, i suck!

dear everyone who i love, and hopefully still loves me:
