Grapefruit is one of my favorite accent flavors.
No, not just with vodka…
I’ve done a lot of breakfast recipes with grapefruit, but I decided to go savory with this one.
It may sound strange, but after seeing similar items on a few menus around town I decided to create a grapefruit and scallop dish. And oh man, was it good!

Vegas is an expert at teaching me a lesson in “never say never.”
Marriage, camping… NASCAR.
We’re on an epic camping trip right now. And by camping, I mean “glamping.” We have an RV complete with stove, shower, and toilet. Just my speed.
We started in Vegas for the NASCAR, and we’ll end in Phoenix for a few Padres spring training games. Today we’re in Page, AZ to see Antelope Canyon. This is the view I woke up to:

It’s been a minute since I’ve showed cauliflower some love.
My apologies, cauliflower… but you give me gas.
Gas aside, I felt inspired to give it a go after seeing this recipe from Anna-Marie. It had a really cool twist – she toss the cauli in stock before roasting it. I did just that in today’s strange (but good) recipe: Lemon Pepper Roasted Cauliflower.

I tasted over 60 wines in 2 days.
I didn’t swallow. TWSS
Vegas and I ran off to Napa to take a wine course. It was amazing and crazy. I’ve never tasted so much wine without a drinking a single sip.
Our last day there was meant for fun though – we visited 4 of the best wineries I’ve been to!

I’d totally vote Captain Obvious into office.
You know you’ve wanted to do the same.
If you are friends with me on Facebook or have seen a few recent blog posts, you know I am outraged by this race. It’s ridiculous. Leading the country is not a freaking reality show.
Captain Obvious has announced he is joining the race for president by (literally… Forrest Gump-style) running across the country. Not to be outdone of a certain reality TV star, he threw his hat into the ring via a TV ad while running on a treadmill.

I’ve always wanted to go to Asia.
I mean… I love their food…
Thai food has been on the brain lately. Vegas and I found a great local Thai spot and it has started a constant craving. And now that k.d. lang song is stuck in my head. You’re welcome.
This slow cooker Pumpkin Chicken Curry started out with Thai intentions, but I think it ended up more Indian. Not that I really cared. The pumpkin may sound like a strange twist, but it added to the creamy good-ness.

Can I have a Wordless WIAW?
Who am I kidding… I never shut up.
Yesterday I completed San Diego’s 5 Peak Challenge. It was such a beautiful hike; I wish I could just post 20 pictures today! That’s a little boring, I know. Plus the challenge is a fun background story!
I hiked the first two peaks alone on Tuesday and again on Saturday with friends. Yesterday I did the final three alone. Well, alone with the company of a few podcasts.
…
There is a lot of stuff in my head.
You don’t want to be in there. Trust me.
In an effort to organize myself this week, I made an actual written To-Do List. I’m normally not that organized, but there’s something especially motivating about getting to cross through things.
In that spirit, I decided to join in Meghan’s Week in Review. Because I got shit done. Meghan, what do you think about renaming it “Shit I Got Done”?
