Na, these aren’t made from lions. I wish. I wonder what lion tastes like. OMG I’m kidding all you endangered species advocates. I won’t eat a lion. Unless I go somewhere that I can. Just being honest. These are pretty much asian meatballs. Just go with it.
I bought jeans this past week. Yep, I did it. I don’t know how I feel about them. They are a bit high in the waist. I think that look is in. I think that because Sergio said it. Yep, HE said it. I’m just not very hip. And my ass is huge so making it look longer is a terrible idea. Straight up, terrible. So I ended up wearing them in California and decided I kind of hate them. Probably because they are jeans. And make me look like a rhino. F*ckin rhinos. I’m going to find jeans though. Yes I am. Next time I’m going to spend 4 hours there instead of 2. YOUARESTUPIDJEANS.IHATEYOU.
I ate 1 too many caramel bars today. Being honest. Again. And yes, I will be posting the recipe. Stop freakin.
Ah f*ck. I just remembered something…I joined a kickball league. Yeah. I joined a league that is a ball sport. That was a dumb idea. My friend Tommy talked me into it. Really, I’m just hoping there are hot guys in it. There probably won’t be. No single ones at least. That’s probably better though. I am going to fully embarrass myself trying to kick a ball. I will most likely miss the ball, full on fall onto my ass. then maybe pee myself. I’ve been known to do that. That’s gonna get me a guy. A girl with bigger shoulders than a dude, with wet pants, and a car that smells like dirty children aka spoiled milk. Yep, I’ll catch myself a real winner soon.
I want to write a cookbook. But I don’t know where to start. Or what to do. How cool would that be though?! So cool.

OK. So I stubled across your life last week.
I now have a nighlty ritual of laughing my head off before bed everynight.
Love it. Love your food. Love your honesty.
Thanks so much Lyndsi!
Made these this morning along with some roasted cauliflower. I don’t think I need to at anything else ever again. Wow. Spicy-curry-coconut-tastic!
Glad you liked it Amber!
These were soooooooooo good, thanks for another great recipe!
Glad you liked them Elizabeth!
Maybe I just misread, but I couldn’t figure out where the curry goes. Is it in the meatballs or the sauce? (I didn’t realize the problem till the last minute so I put it in the sauce … also used red curry instead of yellow but not sure if it matters or not?) Anyway, this still came out great. You rock. Thanks for your awesome blog. I totally look forward to dinner. And leftovers.
Into the coconut milk, but who cares!! If it tastes good, that’s all that matters!!
Yummy! Very different from anything we have ever tasted but oh so delicious! We will make it much spicier next time just because we love to burn our mouths off 🙂 Thanks for such a great recipe!
Glad you guys liked it!!
This was delicious, we’ll definitely add this to our file. I’ve had so much fun trying out a lot of your recipes, I enjoy cooking again!
Yay Sara! Glad you’re liking them!

You totally should have said hello Charelene!! Thanks so much for trying my recipe!!
Holy cats these were AAAHMAZING! So good, I had them with the 2x baked sweet potato…wow…had to take a moment to reflect on the geniosity that these recipes are! Thank you for your recipes and blog, you kinda make me feel normal! I love that you incorporate so many veggies in the recipes that are not in salad form (salads=boring after a while), I even ate a sweet potato for the first time in my life a couple of weeks ago because of you, wow I have been missing out! I have tired a few of your recipes and they are always amazing! Thanks for representing the strong ladies so well!
Thanks so much Rochelle, glad you liked the recipe!
ok…first off these were AMAZING but they did not stay in balls while in the skillet…so I just drained the skillet before adding the coconut milk. still tastes great but any trick for getting those little suckers to stay together?
Thank you!!! LOVE your blog!!!
Loved it
