I ATE THIS TOO FAST TO TAKE PICTURES OF IT
you know my hot jam, peanut butter, banana, and honey on wheat toast?
Today, I put peanut butter, banana, and honey on a wheat WRAP. so essentially, a burrito.
Then, as if that wasn't good enough, I grilled it on the good old george foreman lean mean fat-reducing machine.
Next time, I may put some mushy cooked cinnamon apples on a warm wrap, or some berries and cream cheese? a whole new era of breakfast burrito has arrived.

How We Do 4-20
I made dinner tonight.
Ashley had been wanting scalloped potatoes, so we did those. I also tossed together a spinach chicken salad with a whole hodge podge of veggies from the MP and dried cranberries and apples.
I also made these little individual pizzas that are sposed to be made on boboli crust, but i bought this middle eastern doughey amazing stuff from TJ's. it has sweet cream cheese and apples cooked with cinnamon, sugar, butter--all that good stuff.
Yesterday, I made Oreo Cookie Magic cupcakes for Megan to mimic her favorite 21 choices flavor, which has cookie dough, sprinkles, and oreos. I put a ball of cookie dough in each vanilla cupcake and made oreo sprinkle frosting and voila--oreo cookie magic! I made them with the kitchen blocked off so she wouldn't see, but Campo thought we were making pot brownies for sure.

More April Mish-Mash
please please PLEASE click on these to see the bigger pictures. they're great, but i didn't want to make this huge.
my sister took out a dinner roll, put a square of colby jack inside of it, and stuck it in the microwave. like it was no big deal. it was a big deal. we also made oreo pudding pie with oreos on top that i dipped in bailey's shots. wowie wow wow.
my dad made shrimp cocktail. he's adorable sometimes.
Ah, Spitz. Spitz was started by a guy who graduated from Oxy in 05--he went abroad and fell in love with doner kebab, couldn't understand how there were 4 shops on each block there and none here. So he, Bryce, adorable sweet guy, opened Spitz the summer he graduated. Now it's this huge deal, it won citysearch's best top 10 fast food places in LA, and tons of other awards already. They're opening a new store and bryce wants to franchise it. They serve sweet potato fries, falafel sandwiches, doner, gelato, amazing amazing stuff.
Pan-roasted Australian Sea Bass [Baramundi] with creamed baby spinach, truffled squash, and verjus meuniere from Bistro 45. What that last word means, I have no clue, but I am currently on kind of a sea bass kick so yay yay yay.

An April Holiday Hodge Podge
So I was sick of looking at that MONTH OLD post about my cake. Seriously, if I clicked the link on my bookmark bar labeled fat pack and read the headline "clementine's first dance" one more time, i would have probably gone absolutley bizonkers and burned this place to the ground.
I was hoping to wait so someone else would post and I wouldn't be every other one, but whatever. I am gonna do a buncha posts with random collections of the food I've eaten over the past month. Yes, I've been holding out. I've been busy, but I finally had 15 minutes free and thought this would be a good use of my time.
There are a lotta pictures so i made them small, but as always, you can and should click on them to get the larger, detailed, mouth-watering image.
This was the AMAZING torta that Megan's mom made us for Easter brunch in Santa Ana. It had zucchini, squash, bread crumbs, gruyere, so many delicious things i don't even remember, grilled bell peppers...yummm
The spread--fruit salad, always better in CA, not to be a huge brat--broccoli spinach pie with wheat crust and chicken sausage that i could. not. stop. eating. Pumpkin pecan upside down cake and my contribution to the event--walnut bread with honey lemon glaze. Soooo moist.
This was the almond cake we had. It had almond extract in the cake, almond paste in the filling, and a cheesecake frosting dusted with--what else?--sliced almonds.
And finally, for Passover, we made matzo pizzas. This is seriously the easiest dinner you can make yourself--you put tomato sauce and cheese on it and whatever spices and veggies you want, nuke it for a minute, and voila! delicious. we also made dessert pizzas with this globular mix of cream cheese, brown sugar, and vanilla, which was amazing nuked or not.
