eggs are very important in this house; they must be properly cooked. for me, that usually means butter-crisped edges on the whites, and a soft, slightly runny but almost-creamy yolk. i had two sweet potatoes left from the week's menu; not enough to bake even "fries" for this household-of-seven. so i decided to make my own version of the "skillet" we'd order at a diner if we had the option. </div>

the peaches were divine for a couple weeks. and they were reasonably priced. and then the husband went hunting with Papa Dale in georgia, and they brought back a case (yes!) of fresh, <i>for real</i> ripe from the tree peaches from this beautiful "little" place that they were privileged to tour called <a href="http://www.lanesouthernorchards.com/">Lane Southern Orchards</a>. it was peaches for breakfast, snack, and dessert. we were eating peaches in crisp and peaches with yogurt and peaches baked and topped with a dollop of ice cream (whoops! never did make that recipe!) </div>

garlic might could become its own food group. sauteed with a little butter and herbs, this simple little steak topping found its place on our new favorites list. </div>

a buttery pan-fried steak - next time i plan to serve this with a tomato-avocado salad with a lemony dressing. i think the creamy avocado would compliment, and the tartness of tomato and lemon would be the perfect foil, for the rich garlicky steak seasoning. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
this month as an allrecipes allstar, i've been trying out some goodies from <a href="http://www.goya.com/english/">Goya</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the recipes we chose have fit well with the way we're trying to eat these days: food that's simple to prepare, but full of flavor, and focused on fruits and vegetables, quality meats and healthy fats, including nuts and seeds. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
this recipe for <a href="http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Roast-Adobo-Pork-Loin/Detail.aspx?event8=1&prop24=SR_Title&e11=cumin%20pork%20goya&e8=Quick%20Search&event10=1&e7=%2fcommunity%2fphotovoting%2fdefault.aspx">roast adobo pork loin</a> fit the bill. the "secret" addition of cinnamon added the perfect amount of sweetness, and i think it might be a great autumn dish. we served our with sweet potatoes and onions that we roasted right in the pan.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk7iMAO9046LsRtvQ_GfmxJ1sicU5VujNB6DbclxmSvKhBdgGOPH19LNZ9PcbXjgKGTnC1_OBGTNo1bXr6oGga1fbLnQMPn4oLHUwTwXaTDXL3RkMpgKZIYInY3BdTXnMP8P7eMohG2OQp/s1600/cumin+rubbed+pork+tenderloin+dancing+with+my+father+wm.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk7iMAO9046LsRtvQ_GfmxJ1sicU5VujNB6DbclxmSvKhBdgGOPH19LNZ9PcbXjgKGTnC1_OBGTNo1bXr6oGga1fbLnQMPn4oLHUwTwXaTDXL3RkMpgKZIYInY3BdTXnMP8P7eMohG2OQp/s640/cumin+rubbed+pork+tenderloin+dancing+with+my+father+wm.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
true confession: i've had a tendency to overcook my pork lately. don't do this. :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it makes it dry and unappetizing! although i wish i'd left this one a little more pink (note to self: if it seems like it's been a while since you checked the timer, <u><i>it has</i></u>), the flavor was still good!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
having a Mexican-food-loving husband has made testing these Goya recipes easy. he even forgave me the over-cooking. next time, i'm trying this one in the slow cooker. with the longer, slow-cooked method, i think it might be even better.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
sometimes things get out of order. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the not-exactly-vital somehow seems life-necessary, and the only "thing" that matters seems mundane. deceptively, deadlines and external gratification become front-burner and real relationship gets lost.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and then sometimes, you do hard things. you say "no" to not-forever-important,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and you say "yes" to the people. and the laughter. and the quiet conversations.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
dinner becomes about "always" and about the heart of the partakers.</div>

i'm a chipotle girl. i'm a mojo girl. i like hot-and-spicy. but i have to admit, i didn't fall in love with the new Goya Mojo Chipotle. i'm going to try it again to see what i think, but next time i think i'll do a recipe with some maple syrup and lime added. this was our first run with grilled pork chops with onions.</div>

we served ours with roasted green beans. it was just a bit more spice and a bit less flavor-depth than i like - i think i like the more traditional <a href="http://www.goya.com/english/product_subcategory/Regional-Specialties/Caribbean#78">mojo</a>. and last time i shopped, i saw a bitter orange variety. i think i might give that one a try, as well, just for kicks!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
we've been having such a great time revamping our family eating habits. now i'm being honest - i'd let us get so far from where we <i>should be</i> that it has taken serious determination and genuine, consistent communication to begin re-educating our mindset and our palates.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i discovered, for instance, that our second (a teenage boy) <i>does not like almonds</i>. he's tested sensitive to them in the past, too - go figure. so in paring back grains and incorporating more nuts, i've started experimenting with pecan meal or walnut flour. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i also got a talking-to from our three teen swimmers who didn't think they were eating enough. i've had to get creative about snack options, and they're learning at the same time that with more nutrient-dense foods, they need to eat less at one sitting.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but we're getting somewhere. we're eating more intentionally, and <i>it's working</i>. skin is improving. we're feeling fuller. we're eating delicious foods!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
like this one. in partnering with "beef: it's what's for dinner" this month, i've bought some more pricey cuts of beef, and we're feasting. try this recipe, for instance (click to go to allrecipes.com recipe link!).</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
over the last year i've noticed that the more i fail to put "first things, first," the less actually gets done. it goes something like this: </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
stay up late trying to "get stuff done." get hungry so late, eat something yummy that's terrible for the body. go to bed exhausted. sleep fitfully. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
wake. roll out of bed, sore and tired from the night before.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
stumble into family devos, then off to the office to work more.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
get distracted, hungry and tired, and eat something non-nutritious that may, if i'm lucky, feel good for the moment. but not fill me for the day.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
roll through the day in a blur, trying to "get it all done."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
break for dinner with the fam, and begin again.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
we've gone from full-place-settings, cloth linens, to paper-plates-and-grab-it-fast.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
on a good night, there is laughter and good food. on an average night, it's scramble-and-gobble before or after a sporting event, or between editing photo galleries.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and i'm not "full." i'm running after satisfaction, but i've got it out of order.<br />
i'm trying to make "it" all happen myself. work hard. get more clients. edit, edit, edit.<br />
work, work, work.<br />
<br />
but the sweetnesses are less and less, and the inspiration, creativity and <i>passion</i> begin taking a backseat to productivity. the sparks of joy never burst into flame because they must be tamed to<br />
<i>get stuff done.</i><br />
<br />
and the irony? i'm never "done." always running, never arriving.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the joy is in the journey, right? i've forgotten! the satisfaction is in knowing i'm celebrating as i run, listening for the voice of the Papa who made me to guide me, to remind me what the dance is all about. <br />
<br />
i'm headed back to satisfaction in the One who can satisfy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i'm starting with boundaries - no more settling for artificial foods, artificial fun... i'm going back to cooking what we know will nourish our bodies and our palates. less burning the midnight oil, and more rising before the crew and spending time with my Papa, entering my day refreshed and ready. for His agenda. :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
just keepin' it real. :)</div>

these were good. after we spent a day in the sun, and before we spent time with our friends/mentors, they were the perfect hearty but still not heavy, summer dinner.</div>

here were my tweaks (because of course there always are some) to <a href="http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Awesome-Spicy-Beef-Kabobs-OR-Haitian-Voodoo-Sticks/?prop31=8" target="_blank">this recipe</a> at <a href="http://www.allrecipes.com/" target="_blank">allrecipes</a>: </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
used venison instead of beef.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
marinated the meat for several hours (venison needs it) before adding to the skewer with veggies, and drizzling more marinade over the top.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
veggies we used were par-cooked sweet potato chunks, baby peppers, stems removed, quartered onions, and fresh zucchini. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<strike> in another-more-organized-life</strike>, with a little more planning, i'd have made cauliflower "rice" to serve with these. instead, fresh fruit and sugar cream pie rounded out the meal. (80/20 did NOT happen this evening. :) )</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i <i>should have</i> remembered the venison can get tough if it cooks too long; i might consider skewering the veggies separately next time so i can pop the venison on at the last few minutes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
still, we'll make this again. it was good!</div>

so i did a Pinterest cleanse... i knew my body had dragged way back to neglect and it was time to spruce it up. i want to feel good again and eating "clean" is a huge part of that. i needed to feel what "hungry" really feels like; to taste what "real" food really means again. now that i'm through seven days of pure, mostly raw eats, i find i'm actually craving the stuff healthy is made of. and it feels and <i>tastes</i> GOOD! </div>

we had received a treat from a new company called <a href="http://shop.simpleandcrisp.com/" target="_blank"><i><b>simple and crisp</b></i></a> to sample (i've still got their pear and apple crisps to play with), so i wanted to incorporate the slightly bitter, slightly-sour dried orange slices into the recipe. i found some great looking organic greens, fresh mint and in-season peaches, along with ripe avocado. we made a spicy-sweet dressing, grilled up some chicken, and dove in.</div>

getting real here - there's not much i've found to satisfy the craving for caramel corn but, well... caramel corn. this recipe from allrecipes.com - my australian fellow home cooks - fit the bill for a saturday afternoon splurge. indulging in this and a little pioneer woman, quickly followed by a swim to <strike>make myself feel more productive</strike> burn off some sugar high, and my weekend's been off to the sweetest start.</div>

so i did tweak it a bit (don't i always?!) by swapping half the vanilla for rum extract. except the rum extract (read the label, silly girl!!!) turned out to be mint. so we called it "buttermint caramel corn." and made another batch. :)</div>

<a href="javascript:void((function(){var%20e=document.createElement('script');e.setAttribute('type','text/javascript');e.setAttribute('charset','UTF-8');e.setAttribute('src','http://assets.pinterest.com/js/pinmarklet.js?r='+Math.random()*99999999);document.body.appendChild(e)})());"><img alt="Pin It" class="aligncenter" src="http://www.clickinmoms.com/cmprodaily/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/pinit.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
"You're not really the athletic type." The voice of a parent whose own insecurities led to the unintended insecurities of her oldest daughter rang in my head often enough that it was eventually replaced by my own head-voice. I believed the voice, convinced that I could sing, write, entertain, yes, but I wasn't really "built" for the training of muscle, the straining of lungs. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Over time, the belief-seeming-truth caused fear in public situations. Can't join the youth group after church; volleyball "isn't my thing." Must dress in shower stall after gym class; I don't have a body that should be seen. Won't dare try on the two-piece swimsuit; my curves aren't the muscled, beautiful type earned by runners and ball players. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Social gatherings in the grown-up world center on food or sports. I stay in kitchen, fearful my lack of coordination will deem me awkward. I chatter, fluent in lighthearted banter and polished at deep and meaningful conversation, avoiding beach, pool, court, race. I master knife, mixer, measure, and stove, using flavor to feed the need for interaction, herbs and spices to mask the inner taste of discontent.
But inside, I long to flex and stretch, to push muscle and lung beyond their comfort zone. I dare myself to be brave and urge myself to push. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Still, over years, the self-dislike means trying to feed the hunger for approval, and baking and shopping often means choosing temporary "pleasure" that leads to long-term regret. Some foods that soothe temporarily bring dissatisfaction and harm to this body I can't believe beautiful.
But over years, I bear five babies, each time, my body crying out, "I can! I'm strong!" </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Inside, a cocoon begins to crack, with each child unraveling a bit more, daring the critter inside to break forth.
Those babies grow, and without the voice to tell them "no," they run and climb, breathless with joy for all their bodies can do. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And one day, one tells me I can, too. I am not bound by past nor fear, but freed by youthful innocence and well-loved and loving courageous hearts. And one day, with trembling legs, I draw a breath and take a step, and I run. Not far, but enough that breath burns and muscles ache and the silken strands of inner doubt shatter and in heart and mind and body I am FREE. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At thirty-nine years old, I joined two of my children in my first 5K. It wasn't dramatic for the bystanders on the course, but for me, it was a step toward discovering that I am beautiful, and my body was created for more. An Olympian, I am not. But I am a strong woman who is capable of "keeping up" with my amazing children (almost!). I am well able to push beyond what is comfortable and find joy in what isn't. The food I create can be an expression of joy and freedom and at the same time nourish palate and body, and it is my goal to share that nourishment with the ones I love... part of our journey to embrace the amazing bodies we've been given and push them to do all they can!<br />
<br />
This year, Sargento dared me to create a recipe and tell a story of personal accomplishment. I take credit only in accepting the call to <i>more</i>. My Papa made me, and He made me beautiful. This story is my dare to go higher up and further in. This recipe is one of many I hope to share to nourish the body and delight the palate!</div>

for the first time after many years of want-to, we finally tried our hand at blueberry picking. unsure of how much we were actually getting and a little nervous about having a thirty dollar bucket, we were conservative in our picking. next year we're going in with guns blazing. alas, i took only the iPhone for pics. next time, the big camera. it's worth hauling. so we'll settle for more strawberry shots. :)</div>

i'm smitten with this salad. i've gotta admit, i thought collard greens for a salad was odd (not to mention kale, cabbage, and so on...), but the combination of the variety of greens and vegetables and this amazing dressing adds up to delightful. it's called "winter salad," but i'm thinking spring and summer are calling for this as well. (mmm... gonna go make us some...) </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
because we've all got spring fever, a-girl and i decided to host a girls' night "in" with some heart friends. on the menu: <a href="http://allrecipes.com/personalrecipe/63624937/roasted-salmon-tacos/detail.aspx" target="_blank">roasted salmon tacos</a> with spicy avocado crema and spring salsa, rosemary lemon margaritas (for the "big girls"), and strawberry basil lemon-limeade for us all. </div>

thanks to Herdez Mexican Foods, we had a delicious "seasoning base" to spice up our main course. their soon-to-be-released cooking sauces provide a rich base of pepper flavors that adds a deep flavor "kick" to any dish. we drizzled it over our smoked salmon while it finished cooking (the Roasted Pasilla blend) and stirred it into our avocado crema (the Chipotle blend).</div>

the idea was a kernel of inspiration months ago: how fun to do a family afternoon at the park? each family would come geared up to play old-fashioned games and enjoy generations and ages celebrating the everyday over food and laughter. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
want a tip my mom-in-law taught me? lay out the serving dishes in advance, complete with serving utensils. she'd even put little notes in the bowls so she'd remember what dish went where. especially important for this outing, because i wanted to pretty it up. no average day at the park for us. we hit up dollar tree and bought a roll of pretty kraft wrapping paper and some sweet little vases. <a href="http://www.publix.com/" target="_blank">publix</a> had baby's breath (apparently, my daughter is a little deprived in the floral department; she'd never heard the name baby's breath before!) i had cheap plastic storage totes for the dishes and the white stoneware was packed up for transferring once we safely arrived at the park.</div>

a. is such a natural teacher. she had the boys in giggles as they measured and whisked. early on as a mama, i relished my time alone in the kitchen. though it makes for a bit more chaos, i find that having my children alongside me is not just joy and learning for them, but help i have come to depend on.</div>

i'm not gonna lie. it was a <strike>mad dash of craziness</strike> bit hectic getting out the door with two huge rolling crates, three coolers (we were packin' for a crowd!), and six kids. trying to heave all that food without dripping raw chicken juice onto fresh shaved brussel sprout salad and keep track of vases and baby's breath and... well - we really needed everyone on hand. but having a little bit of elegance and interactive meal was so worth it!</div>

i can never leave anything as-is. we used a beautiful pork marinade from this recipe from McCormick Gourmet to season our chicken breasts, then grilled them on-site along with the corn. which, by-the-way, would be my exception to never leaving a recipe alone. make this corn NOW. as-is. and don't hate me when you want to devour the entire recipe yourself. </div>

a little tip: be sure to use the sweetened, packaged, baker's coconut for this recipe. we use dried raw coconut that hasn't been sweetened. 4 extra egg whites and 1/4 cup of maple syrup later, we still had more of a savory coconut crouton than a macaroon. these still managed to all but disappear. :)<br />

as our kids have gotten older, we are even more convinced that spending
time with every age is a vital part of growing into an amazing person.
we love that our kids have other adults we respect to look to for
wisdom, and that they know the importance of serving a little person who
needs help. we're making it a point to carve out more time for just
"being" with other families so that kinship builds.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the original recipe is <a href="http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Eggplant-and-Ground-Beef-Lasagna/Detail.aspx" target="_blank">here</a>, at allrecipes.com. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
my changes included:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-eliminated the pasta, replacing it altogether with thinly sliced, peeled eggplant</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-replaced the ground beef with ground sausage</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-doubled the fresh garlic (and started the layering with a drizzle of olive oil and fresh minced garlic)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-eliminated the mushrooms</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
true confession here: i intended to use the mushrooms. i'm frankly embarrassed and in heaps of trouble right now with the husband for letting perfectly good fresh produce go to waste over the last few months. <i>i promise</i>, i'm working on that.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
this was delish. my only tweak next time will be to add ten minutes to the bake time, and that with a foil cover to begin steaming the eggplant. it was a wee bit un-appetizingly chewy this time. bless my friend stacy and her family for loving it anyway.</div>

to be honest, i'd discovered this place on my own and fallen in love with a dark chocolate-filled croissant and lox over baguette with cream cheese and capers. so it wasn't my first visit. and although solitude and a solo feast are a rare treat, i'd longed to share this treasure of a spot with my favorite people.</div>

a thought i may have shared before: on our first "real" date (one involving food, of course), i asked my someday-to-be-husband for a taste of whatever dish he'd ordered. he looked at me askance and in that moment he was forced to decide: <i><b>share</b></i> or appreciate the last date with moi. and the rest, as they say, is - well, it's a houseful of food sharers.</div>
