You too, can stick it to the man ("the man" being "the overpriced Rio All-Suites Hotel & Casino) and fill your mini-fridge with food from Trader Joe's for less than $40. Go budget! Choose budget!

I have perfected the "lazy omlette"-- sauteed some mushrooms in butter, pour in 2 eggs whisked with a tablespoon or so of milk, turn heat to low, sprinkle top with green onions and grated romano, once it is almost cooked through pop it under the broiler for 1 minute. Voila! No flipping.

This is a crappy shot of a wonderful sandwich (the steam fogged up the lens). It was seared zucchini and sauteed mushrooms with green olives, homemade marinara sauce, and broiled romano cheese. Delish!

Tonight's dinner was soba noodles with sesame oil, garlic, lime, soy sauce, and hot pepper flakes... and toppe with this conglomeration of carrots, mushrooms, radishes, scallions, and cilantro. Delish!

A little hand-carved owlie that my mom sent me for my birthday. In typical Mom-fashion, she said "this was hand-carved by the Cherokee Indian tribe (well, probably not the entire tribe)." Hee!

Don't judge me. I've been doing 90 minutes of 105-degree yoga practically every day in the last 2 weeks (11 classes in 13 days) and all I have been craving is carbs and salt-- thus invented: MAC & CHEEZZA. Don't worry, it's all vegetarian and organic. ;)

This was an .... interesting .... attempt at a carbonara-type sauce, sans the meat, with cauliflower, zucchini, and sweet potatoes. It was OK, but I needed 1 less flavour going on in there.
