We All Have to Eat
For quite some time now I have been looking for an excuse to blog the coolest thing I've discovered recently: this rice cooker. I shouldn't need an excuse; my love for you should be reason enough.
In the time it takes me to cook brown rice, I can simultaneously cook meat and/or vegetables in the stainless steel tray. 5 minutes of prep (after the forethought of thawing the chicken), 40 minutes of cooking, stir in spices, and ... voila! --we have dinner! I have NEVER had the rice burn, or even stick, although I see on Amazon's reviews that others have.
My husband assures me he could eat this nearly every night. Next up: using it outside in the summer, to keep the kitchen cool.
So why am I dressed up as Betty Crocker?
- This is the silk skirt I bought for $1 last week. I can't wait to wear it with my silver t-shirt for holiday.
- My taupe crew-neck t-shirt would have been boring without the necklace my sister made for me.
- Still loving the wedges.
- The apron is just the first one that I pulled out of the drawer in the church kitchen.
I consider appliances servants. My rice cooker Works For Me.

I love aprons! My neighbor, who was Korean and ate rice multiple times per day, swore by her rice cooker, too. Thanks for sharing!
Cute apron. I love vintage aprons. I don't think we wear aprons nearly enough these days. I know I don't.
I keep coming back to this post. Aprons are interesting, and also practical. The problem is that they look awful with jeans. I like the idea of layering decorative aprons with skirts.
Functional aprons also interest me. Heavy leather at the waist supports pockets and protects the clothing of those who work at a table.
The food sounds lovely! You make me all homesick for home cooking. Though I made lasagna yesterday, a rarely complex dish for me.
Hope you're enjoying your summer!
