Though I sometimes use this brand. Depends on what is available in the stores. Also tasty.

If only there wasn't that lack of decent non-dairy cheeses... 😫

Pepper steak for dinner. And, my sentiments on quinoa. None in the salad. ;]

Made a big pot of chicken & corn chowder (not authentic) yesterday so we would have something a little more nutritious & warming than nibbles with our drinks last night. It looks more stew-like but I added a more stock before serving with diced crispy bacon, chives & a swirl of cream. Though I asked everyone to take all their leftovers home, I have a fridge of cheeses, dips, homemade Japanese curry sauce & boxes of cracker biscuits.

I'll take some leftover chicken + corn chowder home! Looks delicious. Great winter dish. Have you had any snow yet? Will you take a snow scape picture when you do? ;]

Yellow "chicken" curry (brown mushrooms, shiitake, broccoli, onion) over brown basmati rice.

We never have snow here. Queensland is too far north so not cold enough. It’s about the same distance from the equator south as Florida is to the north.

Ok, so this is the anecdote we always share when people find out that we lived in Brisbane for a year a while back, and they almost always ask about the weather:

We arrived in July, which was winter, and we were taken aback when we saw alot of people were wearing parkas with fur-lined hoods even. We must have looked ridiculous in our shorts and sandals. But we are used to Toronto winters, so we probably built up a level of immunity, lol.

Though, come summer/December I was taking like 2-3 showers a day from all the sweating. The poor Kid was almost comatose from the heat.

But whatever, it was probably one of the most enjoyable, peaceful years I've had in my life, so its all good.

I ❤️ Brisbane.
