Some summer fails

Post the goods with the bads, right? I made these paleo muffins. Why, I don’t know. I don’t care for paleo baking, as I’ve mentioned over and over again. But the photos in The Paleo Kitchen are soooo purty. The kindergartener was looking through the book and first asked if we could make chocolate cayenne brownies from the book. I said no. Then she showed me the Lemon Raspberry Muffins and I said maybe.

These didn’t swirl so well. And, oh yeah, they are paleo so they are a bit eggy. Right out of the oven they were pretty okay. The next day, only edible when smeared with freezer jam. And, yikes, they do not look all that pretty:

WYSIWYG

Fail 2: Not a huge fail, but sorta. The kindergartener and I make vegetable kebabs for the husband to grill. We kinda did it wrong, I suspect. Too much space between the pieces of vegetables, maybe a little too small pieces. Maybe shoulda used whole mushrooms. So, he tried, but they kinda just fell apart. Better luck next time…

Sorta veggie grill. Sorta cooked on one side, sorta not on the other. Plus, there’s a little pineapple in there. Not a veggie. Still, pretty tasty. That grill is fun.
