38 looked nothing like a big birthday plan, and somehow it was exactly what I needed. ❤️

Norrin made it through drop-off without tears for the first time in weeks (with Grandpa Toby backup 🥹), we celebrated him a little early, had Korean dunch/linner, and I finally saw a movie I’d been excited about with one of my oldest friends.

Caleb even came along with us in his own way. ❤️

And I came home to bao waiting for me.

Add in a ridiculous song about raining chips, and I think 38 started pretty well.

Feeling very loved-and very fed.

Anyone else end up with all the sad, unwanted veggies after a party? 😂

Broccoli, dry carrots, celery, squishy tomatoes, random cheese cubes… plus some beet greens and pantry odds and ends. Nothing a pot of cheesy veggie soup couldn’t rescue! 🥦🍲

Even shared some with the neighbors… only to realize I’d labeled the jars with the WRONG DATE. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣

Don’t worry, neighbors. The soup was fresh. My watch was not.

Pull up a chair The Amora Table… there’s always room for leftovers! ❤️

Six years of birthday cakes for Norrin. 🥹🎂

Some homemade, some store-bought, some on sale and completely redecorated… but always based on whatever he was loving that year. ❤️

This year’s request? A hamburger cake with Minecraft AND Godzilla. 😂🍔

Challenge accepted.

Pull up a chair The Amora Table… birthday cake counts as family history around here.

Birthday plans: playing it by ear. Literally. 🎂🎶

Last night a bag of chips almost fell on us and I yelled, “It’s raining chips from the sky!” Norrin immediately started singing, “It’s raining chips from the sky! Chip, chip, yum, yum!” 😂

So this morning I grabbed my uke, found a few chords and turned his masterpiece into a song.

Honestly, a pretty great way to start 38. ❤️

And no chips were harmed in the making of this Reel. There was a sheet pan waiting below. 😂

Apparently people have decided I’m the place where unwanted produce goes. 😂

This time Mom brought tomatoes from her garden and a lonely butternut squash, so into the oven they went with onion, garlic and spices. Blended it all up with some broth from a whole chicken I had simmering and… soup! 🍅🥣

Nothing particularly sexy about it. Just a few jars in the fridge that future me is going to be VERY grateful for during the work week. ❤️

On this episode of “Garren brought home something for me to figure out…” 🌶️😂

This time: shish*to peppers. So naturally I sang them a song, gave myself a pepper mustache, then blistered them with a little salt, sesame oil and soy sauce.

Then came pepper roulette. Most were mild. Some were decidedly NOT. 🔥

Garren’s first pepper chose violence and he immediately retired. I ate my entire portion with my mouth on fire and zero regrets. 😂🌶️

Apparently we grew dinosaur eggs this summer. 🦖🥚

Two lemon melons, the last of our sunflowers, three tomatoes, and one Ruby who was thoroughly unimpressed with the entire harvest. 😂

Norrin, however, was happy to take her share.

Holding onto these last little pieces of summer for as long as we can. 🌻💛

Months of watering, tending and waiting finally paid off…
THREE WHOLE TOMATOES. 😂🍅🍅🍅

Beautiful tomatoes, though. And apparently excellent for juggling practice and original songwriting.

Pull up a chair The Amora Table - Candiace Amora Piccolo, MS, RD, LD, CDCES… but don’t expect me to share our enormous harvest. 😂

Garren keeps coming home with random produce, and apparently I keep accepting the challenge. 😂

This episode: tomatillos + tomatoes… plus a mystery freezer bag of roasted tomatillos and jalapeño from one of his previous produce hauls. Naturally, that went in too.

Since the back-to-school plague is STILL hanging around and I had fresh broth, more soup it was. I air-fryer “roasted” everything, raided the pantry and ended up somewhere in the neighborhood of green pozole… if green pozole were red. 😂

The corn made the cut because I was absolutely NOT opening the no. 10 can of hominy tonight.

Norrin passed on the tangy broth but happily ate the veggies. And somehow this use-what-we-have dinner became 3 quarts + 2 pints.

Who says Tuesday has to be tacos? Tomatillo Tuesday. 💚

Pull up a chair The Amora Table - Candiace Amora Piccolo, MS, RD, LD, CDCES… there’s plenty. 🥣

Book club said dress like you’re going to the VMAs, so obviously this was finally the moment for the $10 wedding dress I got years ago from an online mystery-dress sale. 😂✨

I showed up in pearls… along with an apron, serving utensils, tongs, hand sanitizer, paper towels, and bags for the dirty utensils. Because apparently I cannot go anywhere without being prepared. 😂

Then they gave me “Most Likely to Add ‘MUST COOK’ to Her MMC Requirements.”

Norrin wanted a burrito when I got home, so naturally I made one in my fancy dress and Spider-Man apron. 🌯

They know me too well. 😂
