I wasn’t going to post today, but I really really really had to share a recipe I found the other day. I made these jerk turkey burgers on Sunday night, and I made them again Monday night. Wow – just freakin’ wow.
Okay, I didn’t exactly follow the recipe. I omitted the slaw topping. I also accidentally omitted the grated apple. Yeah, I totally forgot about it even though I bought one at the store. Lastly, I used a half oats and half breadcrumbs, as opposed to 100% breadcrumbs.
While the grill was hot, Kevin and I threw on some corn, and we had some there on the side. I have to admit, I usually omit scallions from recipes (cheap & lazy), but they really added to the meal. Touché Scallions.
As long as I’m linking up, I may as well share a new workout I tried last week. I tried one of Christina’s HIIT workouts with treadmill sprints and other fun stuff. I enjoyed it, but my lats were surprisingly sore the next day. I guess those decline pushups were harder than anticipated!
Sorry for the random cat pics. We had a little photo session Sunday. I need to figure out this dang camera already!
- Got a DSLR? If so – how’d you learn to use it???
- Tried a good workout lately? If so – link up!

I love putting the whole husk of corn on the grill, comes out perfect – easy!
Jerk anything is amazing, and addicting.

I have had a DSLR since December and am still learning! I’ve tried reading, but most of it has come from trial and error!

Sorry I hit send. Anyway, I took a photography class through a groupon and that went through a lot of the basics which was great. Plate to pixels is a great book like the other reader suggested.

I love seeing these What I ate Wednesday posts. Great clean vegetarian diet! I eat a hard boiled egg just about everyday! Your cats remind me of mine…the long hair looks like my Clove and then we have a gray cat, Stan. We love them
