Reminder: Enter our Jessica Seinfeld cookbook giveaway!! Did anyone see her on Rachael Ray yesterday? She is totally adorable and has so many great recipe ideas! Check out her stress-free holiday tips.
Happy Wednesday! How is your week coming along? Mine has been busy, but good. Frank developed a bad ear infection on Monday night, so I spent part of the night with him in the pet ER getting treated. We got home at 2 AM, exhausted! But I am just so glad he is feeling better.
In terms of eats…there was brinner action on Monday night:
Potatoes, onions & bell peppers cooked in a hint of olive oil and topped with Greek seasoning and scrambled eggs/egg whites. Eaten with an un-shown side of yogurt & fruit. Oh and lots of ketchup (note to self: buy organic, high fructose corn syrup free ketchup):
Tuesday night, I met up with Lindsay for dinner at Sesame.
Sesame is a very cool spot in North Charleston that offers tons of tasty options. As their website notes, they have:
- Hormone free, ground in-house beef patties
- House made Condiments
- Over 60 Beer choices
- House roasted meats for sandwiches
- House made salad dressings
- Tons of vegetarian options
I had such a tough time deciding what to get, but went with the black bean burger in a bowl (on top of lettuce) with cheddar, tomato, pineapple & red onion and pineapple vinaigrette on the side:
Lindsay and I tried to take a picture of ourselves three times outside in the wind. The comical results:
Thank you for an awesome dinner Linds!

Sesame is great! I work down the road and it is a frequent lunch spot for my coworkers and I.

i think we need to start our Brinner menu design
I'm glad Frank is feeling better, ear infections are so painful! Such yummy meals, brinner looks especially amazing! (I'm definitely craving it now, lol!)
Those mixed veggies looks great! Heinz is now sold HFC free! It's about time...taste so much better.

Holy hilarious pictures Batman. It was sooo good to see you. <3 You!
Poor Frank, it's the worst when pets aren't feeling well. They can't tell us what's wrong. Glad to hear he is on the road to recovery:)

I also had Brinner last night haha! It's our go-to easy dinner when we don't know what to do.
Glad to hear Frank is ok...
I love that you review restaurants in the area...love it! makes me want to try them all!
I am still confused on this exchange thing. So we would be sending baked goods already made then? or do we just exchange recipes and then each make the other's recipe and blog about it?? Sorry, I am so slow on this...lol
oh that black bean burger looks great!
Poor Frank!!! Glad to hear he's feeling better. Give hime a hug for me, K?

How fun is this baking exchange! What a great idea :)
You two are just too cute in your pics :)
Isn't it gross when you actually look at the ingredients in regular ketchup? Ugh....why do they always need to use corn syrup??
xxoo
Windy pictures! So funny. The burger looks super tasty and hearty.
I'll be sending you an email shortly for the exchange!
Ooh! Sesame looks like such a cool place to dine!

The food you've featured above really looks delicious!
That Sesame place looks awesome! I wish there were places in my area that offered goods like that. Love that have lots of veg options at a burger joint! :)
And...your brinner is looking good, I love your side of veggies. They go so good with eggs!
