Sometimes You Need Color.

 Sometimes my body wants a particular color food

and I must oblige.

 Today's meal is brought to you by the colors ...

 ...  orange ...

and ...

 ... green.

Tuna, kale, sweet potatoes.

 Mr. Hawthorne baked a few sweet potatoes for me,

which was nice since he's not eating them.

Not on the diet.

 I mashed up the potatoes

with a little butter and salt.

 Spread evenly into ramekins.

Now here's where it gets good -

the toppings.

 Some brown sugar.

 Some orange juice.

 Marshmallows.

 Coconut.

 Pecans.

 Dot the tops with butter.

Bake in a 350 degree oven until heated through

and coconut is toasted.

 Meanwhile, Mr. Hawthorne

cooked down some kale from the garden.

I luvs me some greens.

 And here's my dinner.

Orange and green.

A little malt vinegar on my greens.

And a sprig of catnip since Dogwood's here
and I always like messing with Dogwood.

This is ambrosial.

Greenalicious goodness.

Sweet potatoes -

they're not just for Thanksgiving.
