I’m pretty protective of my cats keeping them indoors since there are a lot of dangers around here like foxes, rattle snacks, black widows, neighbors that can’t drive, and large, psycho dogs. So they take what little excitement they can get from the outdoors. This morning it was having a meowing standoff with a neighbor’s cat in our backyard.
Must be a cat’s version of arguing in a forum, so I get this, I’ve been there.
Well it’s WTF Thursday here meaning I’ve depleted most of the fresh produce in the house and am too drained from this week to grocery shop. The pickings were slim for a fresh salad – carrots, red pepper, two types of fresh sprouts, and a sad looking avocado.
And how about this WTF look on my face when hubby decided to surprise me and grab the camera to snap some action shots? Such a charming wife, right?
Yeah, I can thank a loooong, hectic day at work and running on a slight lack of sleep for this. But the salad wasn’t too shabby for being sans greens, carrot ribbons work as filler.
But the star was the dressing I threw together of tahini, soy sauce, lemon juice, garlic powder, and a little water – what a combo!
And I ghetto-steamed some edamame in the microwave for a protein boast.
Making a pretty decent dinner for no planning and light enough to not interfere with a post-dinner run.
But wow, I need to make the dressing again.
Tomorrow being Friday means relaxing and time to grocery shop is near!

I was just on a site where she made F my Life brownies. And you’re rocking the WTF salad.
Whole lotta f’ing going on. And that is music to my ears. Just call me a truck driver. Or a sailor. Hah!
The salad does look awesome. The spouts, edamame, and carrot ribbons…yes, all great and the dressing too!
I think the pic your hubs took is nice :) An honest shot for what life is really like!
And oh yes, if you ever do want to replace your camera, the one I got, you’d love it. So keep trying to ‘wear it out’ per your comment reply to me!
