Crab Sushi Bowl #SundayFunday

I love sushi, but I think all that rolling and making it look gorgeous is a lot of work.  So I tend to make sushi bowls at home and enjoy the art when dining out.  All the same great flavors without all the work.

Suffering disappointment, Looking on the Bright Side and Creating the Weekly Menu......

We were supposed to leave this morning for a trip to Cabo San Lucas.  Mother Nature had other plans.  Three large Category 5 storms are in the Pacific, heading towards land, right where we were supposed to vacation.

We are, of course, very disappointed.  We also consider ourselves lucky that we got full refunds and can reschedule the trip for another time.

White Bean and Grilled Octopus Salad #MoviesandMunchies

Our Movies and Munchies selection for this month is Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, hosted by Camilla of Culinary Cam.  The movie has a sequel, and we can choose which one to watch.  Or we could watch both.  I had never watched either of them, nor had I read the book they were based on, so I chose the original movie.

Banana Daiquiri #SundayFunday

 We are still enjoying warm weather here in Michigan, and we are heading to Cabo in a few days, so I am dreaming of cocktails poolside.  This Banana Daiquiri is the perfect Indian Summer cocktail.

These delicious, tender muffins are perfect for breakfast at home, as a grab-and-go meal on your way out the door, or as a snack in your lunchbox.  Studded with fresh apples and covered in a cinnamon crumble, you might want to grab two.
