Here in New England we’re awaiting the arrival of what’s being called an epic snowstorm. A might coating of white will cover the land soon enough. Maybe that’s why I’m drawn to the warm oranges and reds of the moro or blood orange. Given the amount of digging I’ll be doing over the next few days, I’ll need all the Vitamin C I can get. Wherever you are in the world, be well. 😉

Not sure this nasturtium leaf is emerald, Pantone’s Color of the Year for 2013, but I think it is a lovely shade of green just the same. And it is very tasty, in fact peppery, sprinkled on top of salads. 😉
i must confess …

… it was an impulse buy. I had traveled to my local grocery store with a specific list of items to purchase. Prickly pears were not on that list. And yet as I passed by that basket of fruit …
… I guess the overhead lights struck the skin in such a way that I was reminded of iridescent glass. How could I resist such a display?
And yes, if I look close enough, I still see stars in a night sky. Perhaps an aurora. 😉

Three Ways to Use One Red Pepper in One Night
1. Finely chop one-third of the red pepper. Sprinkle over one avocado that has been sliced and arranged on a plate. Drizzle whole affair with olive oil and lime juice, and add just a dash of black pepper.
2. Coarsely chop one-third of the red pepper. Toss into chicken broth liberally flavored with garlic and a bit of smoked bacon. Add coarsely chopped oyster mushrooms, scallions and fresh ginger. A few chopped shrimp and some basil added just before the soup was dished up didn’t hurt either.
3. Chop remaining third of the red pepper. Saute in sesame chili oil with a chopped baby zucchini. Serve over white rice.
The End 😉

A colorful snack pulled together, well, for its color more so than potential taste. Luckily, with a drizzle of olive oil and basil-infused basalmic vinegar, the flavor measured up to the visuals. 😉

At first I wanted to title this image, “Cuddling,” but I thought that might be too sassy a title for my simple breakfast. Wherever you are in the world, have a good day, folks. 😉
