Remember, remember the fifth of November….
^Movie reference anyone?
Spoiler alert: it’s from V for Vendetta….which, if you haven’t seen that movie, I recommend you drop every single thing you’ve got going on this very second, and figure out how to get it on your TV set. It’s one of my all-time favorite movies. Natalie Portman? ON POINT in that movie!
Moving right along.
What are you up to this weekend? Other than watching V for Vendetta and preparing those super steazy Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls with Coconut Milk Glaze I showed you yesterday? I haven’t formulated plans yet, people. The weather is chilly…yet sunny…yet there’s snow on the tippy tops of the mountains…perhaps some low-elevation mountain biking? Perhaps some hipster coffee shop time? Who knows…maybe something I haven’t even heard of.
For your faces this week?! Ugh…goodness upon goodness. We have fajita taquitos, acorn squash tacos, beet and kale rice bowls with PESTO, chili-stuffed spaghetti squash bowls (<- I’m itching, jonesing, dying, so anxious to make these myself), and loaded baked sweet potatoes. Lots of flavor, lots of squash carb…just the way all good meals should be.
Go get ’em!
