30 Days In LA
Ever since the year I spent 30 days in LA, my best friend‘s boyfriend’s best friend has been a best friend of mine. And ever since that year, my life has been a little different. That’s the year FoodFash became a real thing and decided to stay a while. It’s the year I started to dream a little harder, without resentment. It’s the year I started wanting something more from my present company. And most importantly, it’s the year I started acting like me again.
And I’m not saying that 30 days with my oldest best friend and a new best friend are responsible for all of that goodness. But I can say that the year of 30 days in LA derailed me from heading in a direction I had no interest in going.
And days like today, when my brain is mush and I crave the comfort I found during the year of 30 days in LA, I can ask Adam to send me four songs he just can’t get enough of right now. And I can listen to them, find comfort in them, and share them with you.

Squash Inspiration
Spaghetti squash is one of those things that I only bake every third time I buy. As in, two out of every three squash functions more like a countertop prop that ends up in the trash. It’s a sad statistic, but I’m hoping that finding a little squash inspiration on the world wide web will help.

It turns out there are benefits to digging through your archives and re-blogging an old recipe. Like the feeling of goodness that fills you up because you already know you’ll love your meal, and it’s yours. Or getting a little chance to complete against yourself in the photo department, and win. In my not so humble opinion, these pictures are worlds better than the old pictures. Worlds.
I like making meatballs because your hands get messy and there’s something therapeutic about squishing meat through your hands like GAK.
And I like this meatball recipe because there’s no junk, just lean meat and veggies.
