Homemade Impossible Meat

-

 

Realistic looking, realistic tasting pulled pork made from zucchini and cucumber.


Shred two large zucchinis and two small cucumbers for five servings of pulled pork. 

Mix up the sauce: 

1 tablespoon spicy mustard 

2 limes juiced (save zest for later) 

1/4 cup chili powder 

1/4 cup garlic powder

4 tablespoons salt (save half a teaspoon for later) 


Prepare the pan:

Sprinkle the half a teaspoon of salt, the lime zest, and a light dot of olive oil. Let heat until salt is bubbling. 


Make the pork: 

Add your “pork” and drizzle with sauce.

Cook until all the water has boiled off and your beautiful pork remains. Cucumbers are quite watery. Constantly stir for the desired texture. 

Once the water has boiled off, add another small splash of oil to crisp up the meat. 

If you want to make hamburger patties skip this step, and form the still-wet fake meat into circular patties and grill.

 Here is a handy to do list now that the Christmas season is really upon us. I hope this will help you stay organized while appreciating the spirit and joy of this holiday. We all know they can get a little stressful, but if we keep organized and focus on blessings and gratitude, there is nothing we can’t handle.  1. Put up your decorations. You can go minimal or bold but we all know the importance of some decor. Hopefully the second your tree is up you’ll instantly feel more Christmasy.  2. Volunteer or help someone in need. This is a little cat with special needs. Sometimes he wobbles when he walks. I love him. Spread the Christmas love this season.  3. Dream of a white Christmas, and take advantage of the snow days we do have. Snowball fights, snow angels, sledding, the possibilities are endless. Spend these days outside and don’t waste them. Take the days off from responsibilities.  4. Do your Christmas baking. Package up boxes to send to neighbors and family.  5. Test out Christma

A Socially Awkward Teen

-
 Hi! So recently, I decided to go shopping. I’m not normal a huge shopper, but it was my great grandma’s 90th birthday and I needed a nice dress for pictures. So I decided to go to Ross Dress For Less. Don’t judge me. Now, as you probably know, in a Ross Dress For Less, anything goes.  Anyway, I was having trouble finding a dress that I would wear to a 90th birthday party and not a Vegas Night Club. But I just couldn’t. So I decided I would probably wear something I already had.  But, being the homeschooled quarantine socially awkward teen that I am, I was so petrified that someone would think I had done something wrong if I didn’t buy a dress. So I got a dress and headed to the fitting rooms. I got my clothes number and headed to a stall. The lock was a bit janky but I managed. I went back out and headed for my cart but was stopped by a worker who said I needed to give him my card. I did not have my card.  He forced me to go back to the changing room TWICE but I couldn’t find anything
