risotto cakes

I went back to Mukilteo last week. It was just for a hot minute though. My parents and I drove down the Oregon coast, ate lots of seafood, saw lots of nature, you know...Pacific Northwest stuff.  I actually didn't do any driving, mostly just stretched out and ate puff Cheetos and pepperoni sticks in the back seat. Somethings never change. 

I also kind of forgot that I had a food blog, which is a little sad and weird, but then I remembered I have lots of food to share from my trip. Kinda sucks that you can't actually eat any of it, huh?

 

This is just a little peek--risotto cakes and poached eggs, with roasted butternut squash and potatoes. The vegetables were alright, the poached eggs were a teeny bit overcooked, but the risotto cakes were perfect. But how could they not be? What a good idea.
