Fat. If you’re not going the fat route, you need an acid.

By the looks of it, I’m gonna say you roasted that cauliflower, which is, in my humble opinion, the very best way to cook the stuff. Caramelization = teh win.

roasted after tossing in a bit of sesame and tamari and huge chunks of sea salt (because i like the big chunky crunchies)

I’m a new reader, spent my whole psych class going through your archives. And I can’t get over Murray. He reminds me too much of the cat I’ve got at home (her latest “trick” is opening Rockets rolls. she’s got a thing for candy).

I originally mis-read Jamie’s comment as “my whole psych class is going through your archives,” as if mihow.com was a class project or something.

“Class Assignment, Psychology 201, Fall Semester 2007: go through the archives of mihow.com and figure what is wrong with that woman. Submit your findings to the Department Chair by the end of the semester.”

How cool would that be?

or maybe not….

So cute… and very familiar. Last week, Eleanor licked the almost empty tupper ware previously filled with curried lentils. hopefully not the cause but now she has an upset stomach so she and Nona ( my other cat) have been eating rice and chicken. They love the chicken. They stare at the fridge. They stare at me. maybe that was her plan all along.

mashed cauliflower is delicious, and a great substitute for potatoes. jeff’s dad made this last christmas and it was a huge hit. boil the cauliflower until tender. mash it up as you would with potatoes, add sour cream (lo fat if need be), some parmesan, salt and pepper, and you’ll be in cauliflower heaven!

Not too bad sauteed in a little lemon juice, olive oil and garlic (salt and pepper to taste) either. Same goes for broccoli. It’s a great alternative when you are trying to avoid butter (which is what I assume you meant by: “If you’re not going the fat route, you need an acid”). But as others have suggested, mashed cauliflower is to die for as well….but doesn’t taste nearly as good unless it is slathered in butter and cheese of some sort…mmmmm. Dieting is hard. My heart goes out to you!

it makes me happy when cats do bad things…

i once had to answer my phone and i returned to find my pork chop missing. my 16-year old cat had made off with it. she had never done anything like that before.

she died of cancer one year later, so i’m glad she ate my pork chop.

sass: I hear ya. We lost our 15-year-old cat to cancer this year. He stole numerous baked goods over the years. I would give every piece of banana bread, every cupcake, every piece of pie crust just to see him again.

I’m happy he got those baked goods. :]
