4 months old, very talkative when I initiate interactions, loves sleeping next to legs, chasing lasers and strings, and licking and kneading my fingers. 😻

She purrs if I just sit down beside her, but really loves her chin and ears rubbed.

Truffle loves laying down on the dryer after it finishes and she rolls around and meows. 😻

Hi, I'm looking for dinner recipes that use dried marjoram. It's my "spice of the month", and I've already made these AMAZING lamb meatballs and ham croissants with dijon/marjoram/mayo sauce. We usually like ground beef, ground lamb, steak, chicken breast but also like tofu and any veggie. I love the sweet, similar-to-oregano taste of marjoram but struggling to find other good recipes with it. Any advice? :) Thank you.

Ingredients Meatballs: • 1 lb Gound Lamb (or mixed with beef/pork) • 1 tsp dried marjoram • 1/2 cup Panko • 1 Egg • 1 tsp smooth Dijon mustard • 1/4 tsp garlic powder • Salt and Pepper Mustard Sauce: • 1 tbsp Butter • 1 tbsp Shallot, finely sliced • 1 cup Beef Broth • 3 tbsp coarse Dijon mustard • 1/3 cup Heavy Cream • Optional: Fresh parsley for garnish Instructions

1. Prepare Meatballs: In a large bowl, combine the lamb, marjoram, breadcrumbs, egg, mustard, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined and shape into 1-inch balls.
2. Sear: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the meatballs on all sides, then remove them from the pan.
3. Make Sauce: In the same pan, melt butter and sauté the shallot until softened. Whisk in the broth, mustard, and heavy cream. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly.
4. Finish: Return the meatballs to the pan, cover, and cook for 5-10 minutes until cooked through.
