Every day is an adventure....especially in the kitchen. Having no electricity has its joys and challenges, during the summer it is more challenges than joys. Dining on a limited menu week after week you learn to savor the amazing culinary experiences.
For Christmas Katy, Amanda and I chose to slaughter our own dinner. It was an experience in its self, I have to admit there was a point where I didn't actually think that I could eat and enjoy dinner. It was very tasty!
Not having an oven...sigh. Thats how I feel most of the time, Maggie and I made stove top cookies! These were a lemon sugar cookie that you cook a-la-pancake style!
Mags puts her culinary skills to work--you have to flatten the cookies down-we used the bottom of the peanut jar. Truthfully, the cookies were okay-they were good, they fulfilled the cookie craving. But, nothing compares to a fresh from the oven cookie.
Mug and Bean is a coffee shop...its a little slice of heaven. For Maggie's birthday we met up before a training to treat ourself to coffee, assorted slices of cake and good conversations! New York Style Cheesecake? Yum yum yum.

Sarah and I made our own ginger spiced pancakes complete with homemade whipped cream! Sarah got her daily workout shaking the cream!
