Trevor and I are big fans of Indian food. Trevor ate it quite a bit on his mission and then he introduced me to all the joys of southeast asian food when we were first married. So Sunday night we decided to make our own little Indian feast.
We made a chicken cashew curry. It doesn't look very good, but it was so delicious. Anyone who likes curry should make this. We added coconut milk instead of yogurt and extra whole cashews to increase the level of goodness.
We also got wild and tried our hand at naan making. They were garlicky and buttery and awesome.
Trevor was the master naan maker.
Even if some of his naans were a little funny shaped, they were still as good as any Indian place.
To counteract all the coconut milk and cashews and butter and carbs from dinner, I decided to try a recipe for "healthy" cupcakes that I found the other day. The recipe claimed they were light, moist, and as delicious as regular old unhealthy cupcakes. They came out looking great.
And then we tasted them. They were moist. They were light. And they were disgusting. We both kept eating bites of them trying to convince ourselves they were ok. And then the nasty aftertaste caught up with us, and we realized that all these cupcakes did was make us want real cupcakes more. We were sad that they weren't a healthy and incredibly delicious treat. We shouldn't have expected much though since garbanzo beans was the main ingredient.
So we made chocolate, almond, and toffee cookies instead. They didn't have garbanzo beans in them, they were in no way healthy, and they were actually good.
And the whole time Thompson just enjoyed his favorite hang out spot in the kitchen, his bouncer.
