a food journal
I don’t know about you guys, but this Monday calls for an extra dose of comfort.
I’ve been battling a horrible cold for several days now, and all I want to consume is soup. Like, even for breakfast. Just give me a big steaming bowl of soup instead of that piping hot cup of coffee. If you know me well, you know this is a BIG deal. I never forego coffee. Ever….
Allow me to introduce you to your new favorite bowl of food.
That’s right. You didn’t know that this was going to be your newest fav dinner. But I’m calling it….
Are you nursing a St. Patty’s hangover today? Or are you just tired from a long week and relieved/overjoyed that it’s Friday? Either way, I’ve got just the thing for you: a bowl of complete comfort.
So, here’s the thing. I am, by no means, a picky eater. I like most things. Even if I’m on the fence about something, I’ll at least TRY it before deciding I don’t like it (or love it). I am pretty easy to please in the food department. BUT the few things that I dislike, I really, really, REALLY dislike them. And it totally bums me out….
Happy #nationaltacoday! Here I am again, celebrating a pretend, hashtagged food holiday. Kinda silly, huh? Well, don’t hate me too much. These tacos make it all worth it.
Let’s just call the fact that I am organized enough to share a taco recipe with you on National Taco Day a fluke. Because, like the last hashtag food holiday, National Coffee Day, this is one I can definitely get behind…but was not necessarily prepared for. You see, these tacos have been planned for a long time (similar to those cookies last time). They’ve been a brain child of mine that has been in gestation (Ew? Weird analogy, right?) for months. It just didn’t seem appropriate to share a slow-cooking, braised beef recipe with you in, say…July. This is definitely an October recipe. And given that National Taco Day happens to fall in October…well, it worked out perfectly for me….
