I’m having a pile of fun in my land galley this week. I can’t go anywhere anyway for obvious reasons because our province is still in it’s very early stages of loosening restrictions from the dreaded virus. Hiking trails are open, as are parks. We’re lucky to have a yard to be able enjoy fresh air and movement and it’s spring so there’s no shortage […]
How many of you have been feeling challenged lately? You know what I mean? Limitations due to this global covid-19 pandemic. Restrictions placed on social contact. Restrictions placed on shopping. And when you do carefully venture to find even basics, certain items are either in short supply or plainly non-existant. I’m actually finding the challenges moderately exciting. What can I do to limit possible exposure? […]
Being the frugal Galley Kat that I am, I really really needed to use up the remains of my muffuletta sandwich ingredients ( MUFFULETTA – sandwich of the Cajun Gods) Some deli meat. Some tasty olive salad. Some provolone cheese. And I just happened to have some extra ground chicken that I was using for a little Butter Chicken meatball affair that I’ve been working on. […]
This cake is so rich. So sweet. So very share-worthy. So what would possess me to make a whole cake when the very last thing I can do during this COVID crisis is share, I had to ask myself? Oh well! The next best thing I can do is eat the whole thing and share it’s yumminess with all of you virtually. I made a […]
Several weeks ago before we had to be concerned about going out, I met up with an old friend. We shopped. We talked. We sipped and dined. The reason I’m bringing this up is what I ordered when we dined. A simple chicken caesar wrap. I came home thinking about that wrap, it was that good. The tender morsels of chicken. The crispy lettuce and […]
A friend sent me this recipe and honestly, I can’t get enough of them, and I can’t for the life of me imagine why I would ever buy bagels again. Far too easy…and by that I mean really easy. I clocked myself from ingredient mixing to snapping photos. Thirty minutes folks. THIRTY! And that included twenty minute oven time. My only complaint is that the recipe […]
When I received this recipe from Melina, I immediately thought comfort food. It’s simple in ingredients and preparation and reminds me of something a Gramma would make. And sure enough she mentioned it was a favourite recipe handed down from her Eastern-European Gramma to her Momma to her, a dish she falls back on time and time again. Oh the memories that must evoke! So […]
I’m getting all fancy with my veggies in the galley today. Not time consuming fancy. Nor am I using weird and wonderful ingredients. But by the time I finished making, then consuming this ultra-delicious dish, it felt very fancified. I even poured us a glass of crisp white wine to go with to feel extra fancy pants fancy. A lowly head of cauliflower, a package […]
Follow my blog with Bloglovin Things are exploding in my galley again today folks, thanks to my friend Joan for the initial idea of JOAN’S TACO BOMBS that started me on this bomb-making quest. We now have one more lunch, dinner or appetizer type bomb to add to the repertoire with SPANAKOPITA BOMBS for a taste bud explosion. And we have BREAKFAST BOMBS to begin the day […]
Follow my blog with Bloglovin Happy March to you all, Galley Peeps. For most of us in the northern parts of the world it’s a month we all look forward to, regardless if we’ve had our last snow fall or not. We know that gradually those dark winter days will turn into days that are longer and longer, warmer and warmer. Several birthdays to celebrate […]
