I Fought The Slaw And The Slaw Won

Winter Is Coming

Asian Broccoli Slaw - Get your slaw on, y'all!

There I said it. That nasty "W" word. Many of you dread it like nobody's beeswax; the bleakness, dreary greys, dirty whites, the unrelenting cold and chill, the shovel after shovel of snow, the ice, the chapped lips and fingers. You get the picture? Forget for a second that in Houston, we see about 2 weeks of winter per year, usually in January. You're probably stuffing your pie hole with tons of comfort food and the slow cooker just may have become a family institution?

Chile Lime Coleslaw - Perfect for Memorial Day

The "Boys" - Kevin, Buddy, Tony, Schylling, Zippy,
their little dog WeeWee and WeeWee's baby, Skeeter
protesting Chile Lime Coleslaw in "Occupy OakLane".

Chile Lime Coleslaw...It's Low Carb, It's Paleo Friendly...but still isn't Sock Monkey Approved.

This is a true story…

It’s a story of terror. Of heat. Hot Texas nights and cold sweats.

Many of you will take one look at the ingredients listed here and say, “Oh no she ‘itn’t! No way! I’m not loco! Pshhhaw!”

I know. Many of you might be right.

The ‘boys’, you remember our sock monkey boys: Buddy, Tony, Kevin, Schylling, Zippy, and their little toy dog WeeWee, and WeeWee’s baby Skeeter, all think I’m nuts.

I think they may have a touch of PTSSD (post traumatic simian stress disorder), cuz they say, “Mom, you’re not makin’ that insane salad crap are you?”

And I see them quake just a tiny bit.
