Greenhouse Tavern

Last Tuesday after a full day at a clinic near Cleveland, Jason and I headed out to one of his favorite restaurants in Cleveland that he thought I would really like.  I most definitely did really like it.  


Greenhouse Tavern was so good!


We had some spicy green dish for an appetizer that neither one of us could get enough of. I even asked the waiter what was in it so we could make it on our own.  So spicy and delicious.  It was one of the best foods I've eaten in awhile!


Then for my meal I had a bean dish.  I don't even know how to describe it, except so creative and delicious!  There were things that looked like popcorn on top (and since we were asking what all the ingredients in our dishes were anyway) our waiter told me the "popcorn" was actually beans.  I have no idea how, but loved the creativity.  


That chef is awesome!


Jason and I left with very full stomachs and big smiles.  We literally couldn't stop talking about the spicy greens.  


It's also super creatively decorated and the decorations change.  Last week there were vintage bikes!  Could it be more perfectly decorated for me?  No.  They were hanging all over the restaurant:  from the ceiling, on the wall.  Wonderful!


I love locally sourced restaurants and I love what they stand for.  It's so nice to have food that you know is fresh and that the restaurant is making a commitment to reduce carbon emissions, etc.
(another one coming at you tomorrow)

Spring!

Yes, I know it is not spring yet.   Today's the meteorological beginning of spring or something, isn't it? I definitely suffered some winter blues last month (yeah, it's March!). Check out these tulip fields for your Friday! Normann Szkop  took awesome photos while flying over Dutch  tulip fields . ( via ) p.s. Two days later I'm still feeling amazing after my juice cleanse .  Yes, it's possible that's not what it's from, but considering nothing else has really changed (except starting a new month, which I am so excited about), it's getting the credit. HAPPY FRIDAY & HAPPY MARCH!
I have a few things to update on today =) Oh I just finished the best meal I've had since I arrived and it was oh sooooo good! I'm so full and happy right now! It was a mexican meal so at least i know i'm going to the right country. yesterday Tere asked me to lead a little yoga class. automatically i said yes because that's how i am, but on the walk from the classroom to outside i started to get nervous. the only person i ever lead in yoga was karen & she laughed the majority of the time (it doesn't really count). i just took deep breaths and i did it. it actually was great. once we started i was able to integrate some favorite posses of the people in the class it was great towards the end when marcelle (who is rather soft spoken, but i love her) lead a few poses as well. i was actually happy with myself. namaste i love our group. everyone is similar that we all have this interest to do missionary work, but we are all very unique and different at the s

Kitchen Safety

We moved!  We're in our new place and we just got wifi.  Wahoo! I definitely broke in the kitchen quickly.  I was making a panini type sandwich for a potluck get together so I preheated the oven.  The next thing I knew the fire alarm was going off.  Let me tell you they did not skimp on a very loud fire alarm.  Ahhhhhhhh I opened the oven, which I know you're not supposed to do.  In the moment, I think I needed to see what I was dealing with.  There were definite flames.  Ahhhhhhhh So I called Mike while trying to google what to do.  He was super calm the entire call while I freaked out (it probably helped that he couldn't see the smoke billowing out of the oven).   He said to throw baking soda on it.  I did.  It seemed to fizzle but came back. I searched the apartment for a fire extinguisher (maybe I should have looked for one before this moment). This is while I kept trying to silence the fire alarm (to no avail) and open windows to let out smoke. Then Mike
