Fresh Friday: Oven Roasted Cauliflower

Image
By
I didn't like cauliflower as a kid and since I'm the boss now there hasn't been any in our house.  Then Scotia asked for cauliflower after she had it at a friend's house.  I'm not stupid enough to turn down a request like that so I picked up a head at Trader Joes and asked in the checkout suggestions for cooking.  Here's what I got.

Roasted Cauliflower
Heat oven to 350.
Spread nice layer of olive oil on cookie sheet.
Spread out cauliflower florets.
Sprinkle with garlic salt and parmesan cheese.
Bake until the cheese is toasty brown and florets are soft but not mushy.  (Maybe 20 mins)


Oh wow!  We are eating it at least once a week now!

    Abraham has been begging me for cauliflower all the time lately. I've just been boiling or steaming it. I'll have to try this.

    I do this with chopped garlic and parm and I actually think I could eat the entire pan myself, I haven't but I know I could!! Never roasted a veg I didn't like. Wanted to tell you thank you for your post about the LIttle House in the Big Woods books, I started reading them to my three oldest and they are hooked. The best part is my second son who doesn't get excited about much. He is my hardest to choose books for and he was on the edge of his bed tonight reading Farmer Boy. I love it!! Thank you. JOy

    My boys like broccoli, but they don't tolerate its cousin "white broccoli" at all. I should try this version of cauliflower instead. I've never done it, but I've heard you can roast broccoli in this same way. It's supposed to make it taste a little different than just steaming it.

Divorced

By
Maybe you figured something was up and maybe not.  Tyrone and I have been separated for four years (2 years during covid just living in our house with all the kids, and two years Tyrone living in a condo we purchased nearby) now and just finalized the divorce this spring.  Compared to what I usually hear it was a pretty easy process and I think we are doing a fantastic job taking care of our kids together!  I'm super proud of us!  I feel so light and free and happy and confident.  And I've been on a few dates... all which were super fun and enjoyable and relaxing.  So happy with my life at this stage.  And a few cute date outfits for you: Fancy French restaurant in Durham.  First time having a bottle of wine uncorked and poured at the table. We are both big supporters of public education.  Nearby Mexican restaurant with lots of conversation about our Canadian roots. Playing cards at a brewery in Cary.  Started off so fun and silly. ...

Appaloosa Fest 2025

By
Mark and Blythe and I drove north and Courtney and Christine and Nicole drove south to meet us at the Labor Day Weekend  Appaloosa Music Festival for the third year in a row.  Georgia's dad's (Ben) band was playing !  They sounded amazing!  Mark's favorite of the whole weekend. Scythian played and we danced.  Then we got home to our haunted house super late and stayed up even later playing a game.  Sunday morning we hiked Knob's ridge.  And then back for a second day of music.  And Blythe taking care of the animals.  Monday morning Courtney and Nicole were feeling a little sick so they headed home.  Mark, Blythe and I hiked to the Seven Pools and then drove home too.  Great weekend! Blythe and I both had shirts on that we took from Courtney's good will  pile last time we were at her house.

I did not lose my faith I lost my belief

By
A few years ago just before Christmas Scotia asked Tyrone if Santa was real and he told her the truth. She'd been working up to it - wondering why I had a closet full of presents under a blanket, why the wrapping paper all matched, how Santa could get in the house without a proper fireplace, how could Santa make it around the world in one night, how could he get in houses without a key, why some kids got so much or so little or nothing... finally the evidence was just overwhelming and she asked Tyrone. Post Santa Christmases are just as good as Santa Christmases.  She loves helping me buy presents and she is chief wrapper now.
