Avocado Toast


The other day, she made avocado toast. I liked it because i like guacamole, but the cracked pepper and sea salt put a nice crisp taste to it. Oh, I think it was some type of whole grain bread. That is such a good snack!

Thank you sweetheart and thank you for taking care of my parents and all of us this week, since they are visiting. :)

Naato!

I have to say, not a lot of people like Naato. I love it. I like it. Sticky, slightly salty, great with chopped onions, reminds me of okra. 
Good source of protein. It's usually eaten for breakfast.

You can read more at Wikipedia!!! I know, I'm lazy today. 


Onion Soup

I asked for onion soup and we got a chance to enjoy this. I don't know what else she put in it. No added sugar, but it was sweet and good. It took a little while to caramelize the onions, which I didn't know it took that long. She made me stir often. 
Great food. Oh, vegan of course. The cheese was almond cheese... I believe. 



And some pictures I was happy to get from the Back Bay Reserve.

Peaches and Napa Grapes

Thank you for the Napa Grapes! They are my favorite! The peaches were also very good. 

Wiki Note: John Patchett established the Napa Valley's first commercial vineyard in 1858.[6] 




Tempura - On a nice Sunday afternoon - Delicious Sweetheart

Tempura is so delicious. It was really tasty today. I think that every time she makes it... it gets tastier. ;) 

Well, it was fresh oil, and fresh vegetables. I feel so much better to have such delicious fresh food like this. Thank you Sweetheart. :)

USS George H.W. Bush Breakfast items 2012 Pictures



Navy Chow - USS Carr - Dinner


Old pictures I was going through today. I thought they were pretty amazing. 
The potatoes were good... they always had that good "cafeteria" style gravy. 

Where did the cafeteria go in America? I really miss that type of dining. 
If anyone has pictures of a cafeteria you like, please post 'em. 

The picture below has a table in it with no table covering. Usually trays and cups would slide around if there wasn't a cloth on it. They usually had a rubber tablecloth so it made it easier for your trays and cups to stay put.

Sometimes you would eat with one hand and catch your neighbors tray with the other hand while they got up to get something to drink. 











This was the legendary USS CARR cup to drink coffee from. It was legendary, because the one MA (master-at-arms) would get onto us for using them too much. They were supposed to be for the detainee's on board. 
There were still plenty for everyone though. :) 
The crew had to have something too darn it!

Sitting around having coffee was quite the thing to do. Even in foreign ports... we were out looking for wi-fi connections. Then we would order coffee and get online.... sad isn't it. ;) Although, there has been much sightseeing still accomplished. 

Some guys would say if they had full wi-fi on the ship in the mess decks, they wouldn't even leave the ship when we pulled in. LOL.

Great new cheese blog I found. Shows how to make a white cheese. Link. 

Vegan - Sushi - Traditional

Cucumber and Kanpyo Maki, Sushi Rolls. 
They were refreshing and I felt pretty light on my feet afterwards. 
The cucumber roll is called kappa maki roll... I guess if you look up Kappa, you will see images of a cartoon that looks like the cucumber sushi. Hmmmm It was strange to me. 
It was delicious.

How to make sugar from sugar beets

Vegan - Pizza

I'm probably going to be in trouble for putting a messy picture here, but this pizza was really good. I have been craving pizza, but she managed to satiate that need by creating these tasty pies. All vegan and I don't have to worry about my cholesterol going up at all. :) 

There is many different types of vegan cheeses, but this type is almond cheese.

Later for a simple dessert drink... almond milk or soy milk. 

Thank you so much, Yum!
