This was going to be a book review

But then I had a panic with my boiler and my house getting very very cold (all fixed). And then I went out to spend time with my friends as I do every Thursday. So I’ll talk to you later!

 

Recipes Wednesday – Sriracha Bok-Choy

This feature will be more impressive and educational once I can upload pictures to Long-Bones — I’m hoping that will start tomorrow.

A friend of mine asked me for this recipe recently after I made it for book club.

1 or 2 bunches baby bok choy
1/2 tbs sesame oil
1/2 tbs vegetable oil
sriracha to taste
salt

Chop up baby bok choy removing the thick stems from the leaves. Heat both oils in a sautee pan, toss in the thick stems and stir fry until tender. Add thin leaves and once they’re wilted season with sriracha.

You don’t want to put a lot of sriracha in a hot pan because the peppers will steam up and get in your face.

 

Days 2 & 3

I walked to work and back both yesterday and today. Upped my calories a bit because of it – I don’t want to start exercising and forget to eat more and then go into “starvation mode.” I also did a bit of strength training on the Wii Fit today – I say a bit and I mean a very small bit. I am not strong!! That’s okay, I’m going to change that.
