pot roast, you ask? well, well, well...that handsom chunk of beef transformed into a fork tender, flavorfull morsel of meat. i was giddy with the end results. i added roasted butternut squash, cannellini beans, onions, chilis, and tomatoes to the beef to create a hearty chili. garnished with ripe avocados and fresh cilantro, the dinner party was awesome! i will never doubt the powers of a crock pot again.

to completely change the story, i have to tell you about this great caesar salad i just ate. i have had caesar salad on my brain for a few days, and so i needed to make one. having no romaine on hand, i switched up the greens. i used spinach, thinly sliced kale, and a few torn leaves of red leaf lettuce all tossed with some croutons, grated parmesan, lemon juice, and caesar dressing. it was great. what have i been doing sauteing my kale? geez-o! give it a whirl with the last stands of greens you're harvesting from your gardens!
