Potatoes, Hummus and Rooms...

Disjointed topic, but that's what we're covering today...

Well, Tony and I made the plunge, after almost 17 years of being married, we just purchased our second set of bedroom furniture. UGH, I want to throw up! Sometimes, being an adult really stinks. I know I could have found a better way to spend the money. I researched EVERYWHERE and we finally decided on the one we wanted that was in our price range (truth be told, I would have liked to have gone lower). I swear, nothing is ever really simple. We ended up having to get our mattress from another place so now that's 2 delivery charges. Score! Why make it one when you can get two. Luckily, the mattress was a little cheaper from the other place, so it was kind of an even swap...kind of. We will have the set on Saturday, so hopefully we will be back to a more normal sleep space. In the end it is worth it. Jay really deserved a great room of his own. I remember when my room changed over to being more me and put together when I was a kid. It kind of makes you feel more grown up. I'm glad to have him in a room he loves now and feels like him.

So, with all the running around yesterday, we kept our food super simple with omelets and hummus that I had made the other day. In my opinion, potatoes are an underrated food. I think being a good source of vitamin B6 (essential for making new cells), potassium (muscle contraction), vitamin C (protecting our body), magnesium (bones) and fiber (gut) makes these pretty top notch in my book. Also, when slathered with hummus and covered with nutritional yeast they are delicious!


I had the baked potato with a hummus filled omelet and those tiny sweet peppers from Costco. Side note, those suckers are addictive! As for the hummus, I didn't have any lemon juice so I tried something different. Apple cider vinegar! I put that stuff on any and everything now due to the health benefits. So, I figured I would sneak a little into the boys too! They loved it!



Hummus
(makes 3 1/2 cups)

4 cups chickpeas
3 cloves of garlic
2 TBSP cumin
2 TBSP apple cider vinegar
2 pinches turmeric
1 tsp salt
pepper

When did you change your room over to being more of a big kid room? I was in 7th grade, when we moved to Georgia. I had a very Asian theme going on from stuff my grandmother brought back from Japan when they lived there. I loved it along with the River Phoenix posters I had all over the back of my door.

  1. Congrats on the new furniture! It's funny how you put stuff like that off for so long.

    Great hummus recipe - I was just saying how I need to incorporate more turmeric into foods. It's so good for you!

  2. I started adding either apple cider or rice wine vinegar to my hummus as well. Gives it a nice little kick of "something." Love the turmeric addition.

    And I know you didn't want to spend a lot on the furniture, but think of how much time you spend in your bed! It'll be worth it once you get it all set up and the room is back to normal.

  3. Yeah, changing your room into YOUR room is such a big thing when you're growing up. I taped a bunch of those "Got Milk" ads on my walls...not sure what kind of look I was going for there, but it definitely marked the room as all mine :-)

  4. Ah yes, River Phoenix. Was so sad when he died. I think I'd love your hummus. Sounds nice and chunky, and yes, potatoes are totally underrated. LOVE THEM. At least the bedroom furniture will last a long time. No need to purchase another set for years and years. At least that's what I keep telling myself after car shopping this weekend. Ouch. ;)

  6. My room changed over when I was about 12...my mom had people come in and do stenciling in 3 rooms in the house (back in like 1990 when that was in style!)...so my room went from being lavender with rainbow comforter to being cream with mauve trim and a stencil border....I loved it!
    I really need to buy new bedroom furniture, but I can't bring myself to yet...
