yeah that salad is pro as heck. 'dines, 'maters, cukes, arugula, 'cado, ????

Yup, with a glug of extra virgin on top and some black pepper. I don't really like dressing it with the fish oil because it makes the whole salad too fishy. Fresh and filling as gently caress because of all the (healthy) fats, it's an awesome lunch.

E: I actually put a few crumbles of really zingy cheddar on top of it too, but I'm not sure I'd do it again.

https://creamery.wsu.edu/cougar-cheese/flavors/ I loving love the Cougar Gold, it's $22 for a huge 30 oz can of this firm cheddar that goes great on everything and only gets better with age. Gonna ask my sister to bring me a can for christmas (she's at WSU)

Yeah I wanted something a bit zingy as a counterpoint to all of the soft oily fish and 'cados, but I think cheese was the wrong choice. I think next time maybe some red onion and a vinaigrette dressing might do the trick. I'll wait for my new 'cados to get ripe and report back.

I've never used sardines (or avocados for that matter) in a salad but I enjoy a vinegar-y anchovy dressing with red onions and whatever. drat I want some salads gently caress me

life hack: grocery store salad bars are often cheaper per pound for just the greens like lettuce, spinach... those fancy purple leaves... etc., than the bagged stuff.

My cat went missing 2 days ago. Frantically, we searched everywhere but couldn't find him.

So I bought a humane animal trap, and baited it...with 'dines.

Woke up this morning, and there he was, stuck in the trap, scarfing down a can of sardines. They were Safeway brand in olive oil, so those are definitely cat approved.

Thank you, sardines.

Don't give your cat 'dines in oil. It will make them sick all over the house. You need to buy 'dines in water if you want to share them.

I drained the oil and used it as a scent path into the trap. So he just ate the 'dines themselves.

The important thing about eating an apple or banana as a dad is to completely ignore any bruises or brown spots, just eat the drat thing.

Kumquat. It's got a great name, it's easy to pick up a few and pop them into your mouth, they're delicious, and they are definitely handfruit.

We all know watermelon is the dadliest fruit ok, but writing in "small watermelon" to try to get it in in the handfruit category isn't going to fly. It's already in the "foods larger than your head" category where it belongs.

persimmons are incredible

You can bake with them, cook them down into syrup or pate, eat them out of hand... they're versatile, and delicious.

Buy better persimmons. Also, let them get more ripe - you want the squish to be like a tomato or peach.
