Let The Gouda Times Roll

I had the pleasure of sampling our brand new Stout + Gouda bread at the bakery today. OH MY is it good! The stout is subtle and the gouda is smoked and the bread is 100% whole wheat. Also so glad the Scotchies are back : )

BakeryBlog

We accomplished a ton this afternoon. The store is looking so sharp these days [thanks to our wonderful staff’s personal touches!] We went through a rough period of adjustment, but we’ve finally gotten in the swing of signage and making the lobby look plentiful. Next on the list is a 4-top table!

I had a great time working this afternoon. But by the time I walked there and back and spent 2 hours on my feet doing customer service things, I collapsed onto our living room couch just 3 feet in the door and put my feet up. My feet are wearing out on me and I’m only carrying a few extra pounds! Get ready for 20 something more weeks and 20 something more pounds..

Tonight’s dinner was a leftover party

IMG_7220Blog

And this is what the fridge looked like after!! I even wiped down the shelves. LOVE days like that! [And somebody come drink that bottle of white that’s been chilling since the fall since I obviously won’t be the one to open it!]

IMG_7218Blog

The result of the leftovers wasn’t pretty, but it tasted good. Matt said I could have first round so I could choose the foods I was craving. He ended making a huge skillet dish with all the rest.

IMG_7223Blog

Mine had leftover grits, short ribs, and roasted veggies.

IMG_7222Blog

Plus two peas pickles in a pod on the side!

IMG_7225Blog

IMG_7226Blog

Matt’s skillet – which he Mmmmed his way through! I couldn’t even look at it. What IS it with these aversions!?

IMG_7229Blog

Overview shot take I

IMG_7230Blog

I guess his dinner wasn’t quite ready without some hot sauce :  )

IMG_7231Blog

Take II

IMG_7232Blog

I don’t think that dinner was enough – my stomach is growling. Might have a cereal + milk nightcap before reading in bed time!

My mom just sent me this cool video of 500 years of women in art – happy International Women’s Day!

      No, it’s a normal freezer-top and fridge bottom with one door fridge. I really want french doors!

    I just can’t figure out how you are able to keep your fridge so bare!!! It makes me realize I really need to use up what I have and practice better meal planning. I envy your clean fridge!!! Do you meal plan for the week when you shop?

      I roughly meal plan – just pieces of a puzzle to put together. I think I’m so afraid of things going bad that I try to use it all up before the next trip!

    Leftovers is a great idea to clean out the fridge. Well, at least you’re not working full-time with more little ones at home! My friend is 6 months along, works 9 hour days and has two little ones at one ages 2 and 5. I don’t know how she does it, but she just brushes it off! Working moms are super-women.

    I like your tower of leftovers. I think the only time we have an empty fridge is when we’re moving. We’re preppers, so we always have lots of foods with a long shelf-life. The only thing I try not to overbuy is fresh produce, but that doesn’t always go as planned.

    I was most exhausted in my first 4 months and then energy returned in last 5 months. Early on, I would come home from work and, more or less, pass out cold on the couch at 6pm pretty much for the night. As bod acclimated, energy levels normalized. Only in the last few weeks, did sluggishness return. Hopefully, your low exhaustion threshold will pass soon too.

    Hey Kath,

    How do you like Kodiak Cakes flapjack mix? Would you consider it to be part of a healthy breakfast because it is made with whole grains? and 7 grams of protein per serving.

    Thanks so much 🙂

    Your aversions are crazy (not bad, just so interesting!). My sister was a nanny years ago, and one time, the Mom she was working for was pregnant with her 3rd kid, and for a few weeks, had a very strong aversion to WATER! That, would simply be the worst.

    I don’t know if it is because I grew up in an Italian household with two Grandmother’s who went through the depression or I am just crazy with food, but, my fridge is packed even when I got the store. I have a phobia about running out of things in the kitchen. My husband laughs, and says that we could live 6 months with the food in our house, and that is usually the day I go shopping! It’s funny, I really don’t clothes shop or trinket shop, I live 10 minutes from one of the biggest malls on the East coast and have only been there once in the past 5 years, and that was to the apple store to repair my phone. But I cannot pass Whole Foods, Wegman’s or Trader Joe’s without feeling drawn to go in. My head fills with a million recipe ideas and I just want to make them.

    You sound like you are feeling better, I’m glad. I love how active you are keeping yourself while pregnant. And, you are handling all the advice people give you with graciousness and charm. I admire that, everyone loves you and wants to tell you all the info they learned about being pregnant, and it must be hard taking all that in. Keep up the good work and have a great day!

    If the occasion arises to crack open the wine, may I suggest half a glass of white wine mixed with half a glass of peach-flavored sparkling water, then add a slice or two of peach or some raspberries. It takes like white sangria! Yum!

    Since you are a beer lover…I wanted to tell you that when I was pregnant with my son 5 years ago (wow!), my husband bought a case of my favorite summer beer and saved it for me so I could have some after I delivered in October. Was thinking if there are particular seasonal brews that you are sad to miss this spring/summer, you may want to do the same thing 🙂

    Congrats on the bun in the oven!

    YouTube is blocked for me at work, but I’ll have to check out that video (being an art teacher and all!). Great job clearing out the fridge- what a wonderful feeling that must be!
    My favorite bread of all time is called “Cowtown Stout.” It’s something that I discovered at a Whole Foods in Colorado and was only made in select stores out west using a microbrew made in Denver called Cowtown Stout. The bread was dark brown and had walnuts in it- I wish I could find it here!
