Winning in the Kitchen

Despite the lack of kitchen space in our lovely hobbit hole, we still manage to get creative and enjoy finding and trying new recipes.  Right now, it doesn't matter that our shelves are at maximum capacity, and that the top of the fridge, above the cabinets, underneath the bed, and all manner of nooks and crannies have become storage centers for dishware and dry goods.  We're learning to live with that, and know that more space will come soon enough.  Luckily we are both organized and borderline anal-retentive, so we manage to fit everything into the tiny spaces like a puzzle.

The other night, I made sweet potato and black bean tacos.  It was my second time making it, and now I've confirmed that it's a recipe that will be used over and over again.  It's easy, it's healthy, it's delicious, and - you get to eat a burrito (or several) for dinner.  Could there be any other result besides absolute enjoyment when dinner includes tortillas and guacamole?

Small Wins

A couple weeks ago we were visited by a film crew in our little hobbit hole.  No, there was no nearby robbery, neighborhood fire, or transportation delay that needed locals to spew their commentary.  The camera crew arrived due to, none other, than my brussels sprouts video!
Earlier last month Misfts had a promotion on Instagram that encouraged customers to share with the company why they subscribed to Ugly Produce.  Once you shared your thoughts, you would be placed in a raffle to win a free veggie box.  That sounded like a good deal to me, and I hoped my brussels sprouts video would give me an edge in the raffle!  
Two or three weeks went by, and I completely forgot about submitting my brussels adventure for the raffle.  It was quite a surprise when I opened my inbox and found an email from the Misfits Head of Marketing.  She told was going to be featured on a Reuters report, and asked if I would like to be a part of it. 
Two days later we had a reporter and cameraman at our door.  I think they were slightly taken aback by the size of the tiny home, but we made it work.  A lot of footage was taken and many questions were asked for a very short sound byte, but the time spent was fun and interesting.  We also ended up getting a free veggie box, as they sent one over for the shoot.  I may not have won it in a raffle, but the end result was just the same!
