WIA(with my uncle)W
Fitting that today would be “What I Ate (with my uncle) Wednesday because today happens to be his birthday and a party seemed to be in order.
Also, because I’m trying to enjoy the occasion (especially because he leaves today), I’m making this short and sweet.
Remember to thank Jenn, our hostess. Thanks Jenn! <— setting a good example.
Break-Fast:
Okay, so I actually didn’t eat breakfast with my uncle (this theme is off to a bad start already), but work with me here.
Topped with chocolate pudding, granola and peanut butter.
Luuuunch:
Plus 2 un-pictured mini slices of bread. Can I just say holla Challah is amazing??
Eaten in the car because my mom, uncle and I drove up to Brainard Lake.
Do you see what I see?
Cold, yes. Rainy, definitely. Beautiful, absolutely!
Dinna:
Vegan Dog at Biker Jim’s.
Topped with “harissa roasted cactus, Malaysian jam, scallions, cilantro and onions two ways.”
Awesome.
Side salad and charred tahini cauliflower.
Also had a bite of this…
And a bite of this…
And then I had a heart attack.
Not really, but seriously, that’s a bacon dog!
Who do you think it belonged to??
We ended the night at my home away from home.
Where is continued to be rainy and cold.
At least it was an exciting game. My boyfriend Tulo hit a homerun and it landed right next to us!
Well I’m off!

Happy Birthday to your uncle! Nothing like celebrating with delicious food and good entertainment. I can’t say that I’ve ever had fried Mac&Cheese, but I’m a big fan of the normal kind, and I’m thinking that it needs to make an appearance in my life, stat.
I was planning on making some this week, but that never happened. Fail!
YUM! your eats look seriously delicious!!! Happy WIAW 🙂
Today is my uncle’s birthday tooooooo! Maybe it’s the same person and we’re really cousins.

I don’t know which looks more awesome: Brainard Lake or the Bacon-Dog.
I think you know which one I’d chose 😛
Tahini Cauliflower?! Lauren, if you get that recipe, you’d better share it. 🙂 Tell your uncle Happy Birthday for me!
