March Outtakes -

March’s wrath is officially over. It is a tough month; but it’s the portal to summer. To follow some highlights that cannot be sorted elsewhere…

The cookie that can get me through an 8-hour day. Yardsale‘s vegan pistachio chocolate chip…

Ok, this is also work-related. Because March is one of the roughest months for a teacher… besides September. Thai lunch at Jai Dee.

Tempeh, marinating

Ok, this is all work food! We ordered tacos from Calexico. Mine, smothered in guacamole yet add avocado. Yes, that’s how I roll.

In cars (like the 80’s song)

Some ravioli from Pastosa in Eltingville, SI

The moon still out in the pretty sunrise

A new favorite obsession: Sushi Jiro‘s make-your-own Poké Bowl… I get (pasted from order receipt) BROWN RICE, INARI (TOFU SKIN), AVOCADO, EDAMAME, YELLOW RADISH, SEAWEED SALAD, CHERRY TOMATO, PONZU, SWEET CHILI, PEANUT, CRISPY ONION, FURIKAKE (SEAWEED AND SESAME SEEDS), CILANTRO. It’s unbelievably good!

It’s Spriiiiiiing!!!!!

I’ll need another cookie

Next door from my dentist, a pre-cleaning vegan option at a rando counter spot in which one would not expect vegan options.

Another gorgeous shot of another Poké bowl

Liking this hair day 🙂 But I haven’t got a cut in a while. The forced social component has it being pushed aside. It’s so cringy having to participate in salon talk. Where can one find a salon where there is intellectual talk? 🤓

The late St. Patrick’s Day parade is a big deal in By Ridge. Tons of talented bag pipers. Though I did have PMS, their music had me tearing up on the street.

And so, some late St. Paddy’s Day pancakes… I did these on a whim but would do it better next time… with raisins, more caraway seeds, Irish cream whip, a side of potatoes. That would be a seasonal special at my diner.
