YOU are Worth Melting For

Thank you for being a part of Zensible Mama through the years. Happy Thanksgiving!

Meatless, Exotic Thanksgiving

Turkey is a major part of Thanksgiving but the same traditional menu every year is monotonous, boring, unexcitable and usually not vegetarian-friendly. Imagine yourself a vegetarian who have to bring your own food so you have something to eat at a dinner party you were invited to. Tragic isn't it? But vegetarian or not, there is no law that says you can't avert from tradition. This year, we're upholding the vegetarians and sparing the Turkeys (which is in shortage FYI) by going meatless and adding exotic dishes to spice up the menu. This is not your Grandma's traditional Thanksgiving menu!

Potato Pierogi - This is a traditional Polish dish. My husband is part-Polish. What better way to celebrate than to incorporate this dish to give our daughter a glimpse into his heritage. It's also his favorite so it's a win!

WHY it's TGIF!
TGIF was conceived while I was in the potty. I. know. Eww as it may sound, it's the only place where I can really THINK...in peace. You know this! Having kids can be... a little too chaotic. Hiding in the potty is sometimes the best sanctuary. So, yes the idea came to me while *insert your guesses here* and pondering about Thanksgiving and voila!  It's Friday. And each Friday, I kept saying TGIF. Why not give TGIF a new meaning? As you can see, I did!
