🐟 fish sticks: at under 8 months old, Baby Grumpling is getting better at chewing, but I don’t want to give her too many hard textures at the moment. She bit and chewed on one small piece, but I took off the crust for the rest of the meal so she could have an easier time chewing the fish and sides.
🥕 I cooked some carrots and celery with butter, soy, and some pepper. I puréed it with some Kitchen Basics beef broth and added in some red onion to be blended as well.
🌿I added an herby yogurt on the side with Straus Family Creamery yogurt topped with oregano and di****ed. Kind of like a baby tartar sauce but absolutely nothing like it 😅🤪

I was honestly so tired today to even think about cooking or much less recording anything, but something about taking a quick cat nap while the Grumpling also napped re-energized me. Cooking is therapeutic for me and when I have the ingredients needed to make something that inspires me, I go for it. ♥️ Today, that inspiration was the garlic noodle recipe by Alissa Nguyen Won. I had also everything she mentioned except rotini instead of spaghetti, and no oyster or dark soy sauce - adding both to the shopping list. I also added ground beef. Chef’s kiss. 🧄🍝 Soooo easy to make and my critical husband Mr. Grump was definitely a fan.

I loved the sweet, savory and umami flavors cut by the crunchy sliced celery, scallions, shallots, and avocado. My tummy was very happy. Baby Grumpling even liked the meat. 🥲♥️

Gifted by Osulloc US. I’ve been drinking this Korean luxury tea for SEVERAL years and although I am a huge fan of the honey pear tea like the rest of the world, I have to say the fig chocolate black tea has left a lasting impression on me! 😮‍💨♥️

🥣: rolled oats cooked with water, strawberries, figs, blueberries, frozen banana, and some butter. 🥷 added some Straus Family Creamery yogurt and blended with the Ninja Kitchen chopper/processor. Mixed with milk before serving when it began to solidify a bit. Stored the rest in Ziploc bags in the freezer.
🍳 cooked the tomatoes with salt and pepper before adding the egg scramble
🥓 I gave a piece for baby to chew on. She did not eat it but I did lol

When we visited Vegas last month, there were only 3 things we revolved our itinerary around: our princess grumpling’s feeding schedule, the Backstreet Boys concert, and our hard-to-get reservations at Golden Steer Steakhouse. This topped many of our foodie experiences, and I have to say that Golden Steer is one of the best steakhouses we’ve been to. Impeccable service, fantastic steaks, the greatest Caesar salad I’ve ever had that was made tableside, and quality drinks! 🍹 add it to your list of places to try off the strip at your next visit.

this was easy and a delicious fusion of dense sweetness cut by the umami flavors of the bacon and the herb cream cheese filling. Yuuuum!
