The Bohemian ~ Veggies & Quinoa ~ Cooking Sauces & Coffee ~ Bruiser ~ Tortilla Chips



Good very cold 28 everything frozen morning.

Dinner the other night was veggies and Quinoa w/ sprouted rice.
Cut up the veggies, put in frying pan with olive oil and saute... sea salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook the Quinoa per directions or in a rice cooker. When done I threw in some spinach and let it sit. At Wal-Mart Friday I got some Progresso "Recipe Starters" which are basically a gravy like sauce ... Basil Parmesan, Portabello Mushroom, Three Cheese, and Garlic...
So after sauteing the veggies, I added in a can of the garlic cooking sauce, the Quinoa and rice and spinach.


Then just for good measure I added in some grated cheese....
OMGOOD!!!!

 
While I was at Wally World I also got some new coffee... Godiva Cinnamon Gingerbread Truffle.

 
Wow, it's awesome. Also got one of my favorites Dunkin' Cinnamon Spice coffee and.... I bought a container of Oregon Cafe Espresso Caramel Latte concentrate...

Mix this with milk and serve warm or over ice. Will let you know my thoughts on it after I try it.


Looking for Bruiser... and here he is in a tree....
Of course he's not going to sit there all cute as soon as I show up with the camera!


Yesterday I met up with pals, Joe and JoAnn (Kirk.. LASD ret) and Dee (Her hubby Dale Yellin..LASD ret) at the new Bohemian in Grants Pass. This place is fun! The interior decorations are really beatutiful. The food is exotic and eclectic ... from seared ahi tuna to hot dogs... Dale couldn't make it, as he was working, but Dee and I had 'electric margaritas...
JoAnn had the ahi tuna salad, Dee had baby clams, and I had the tuna on sticky rice with avocado. I think Joe had a beeg theek steak.... or not.



Our bartender/waiter was the one and only personable charming Tyler...
A good time was had by all and we definitely will go back. If you are in the area and interested, The Bohemian is on G Street across from Papa Johns, Blondies, and the Mediterranean.

Sue,

Oh my, do you get tired of such cold weather for so long? It sure is pretty tho.
Was Bruiser able to get out of that tree without help?

Your dinner the other night looked amazing. You should be one healthy gal with all the fresh veggies you eat.
The meal you made at home did look more interesting that the tuna/rice you had at the restaurant. It didn't look like enough to fill up a person.
mmmm tortilla chip day! WHO thinks up these things??

Have a good one and stay warm!

Frankly I get tired of the cold toilet seat! LOL. As for the Bruise, he RUNS up and down trees. He is a phenomenal athlete! Thanks re the dinner. It is healthy and good. But, having someone else cook and clean up is FUN! I love going out for that reason. xoxo

Buy a padded toilet seat. They don't get very cold at all. :)
