I made vanilla Meyer lemonade last night, loosely following a recipe I read on Vanilla Garlic. My Meyer lemons weren’t quite as mild as usual, but the flavor was still really nice and paired quite well with the rich complexity of fresh vanilla bean in the simple syrup. I poured it into an empty Italian soda bottle I’d saved. It’s also delicious mixed with limoncello lemon liquer — sweet, tart, handsome and alcoholicious!

I continued my absolutely delicious trend of getting things cleaned up. Today I cleared all the junk out of my car and put down some much-needed new floor mats:

Awesome. 

what could be simpler than a hello kitty bento? the eyes are nori. the nose is made from fried egg and her bow is a large piece of red pepper.
