PRgal October 14, 2019 Share October 14, 2019 Yesterday: A cheese omelette and salad for brunch and since it's Thanksgiving weekend in Canada, roast turkey, sweet potato mash, wild rice and bacon stuffing, cranberry sauce, etc... for dinner (didn't cook most of it. I DID make roast vegetables and cranberry sauce though). We didn't have pumpkin pie. We were SUPPOSED to have a pumpkin cake (since we're a few days away from my son's first birthday) but the bakery messed up our order and we got vanilla. Oh well. Today (holiday Monday): Salad for lunch/brunch and we're going to have leftovers for dinner.

Anela October 17, 2019 Share October 17, 2019 Last week, I made pomegranate chicken tacos, and ate them for dinner all week. Just one large one, thrown together in a huge tortilla. That kept me going for hours. This week, I had planned to make a lot of different soups, and put them in the freezer (what I wasn't going to eat this week), but I've had trouble sleeping, and am tired/up all night, so I haven't been cooking much. Dad bought a rotisserie chicken on Sunday, and we've had sandwiches from that all week. I've also had a salad mix, with a couple of boiled eggs, feta, and a salad dressing made from tahini, and a few other things.

Bastet October 27, 2019 Share October 27, 2019 It would be quite the understatement to say I wouldn't be happy in a cold climate. It's in the mid 70s here, after being in the 90s all week, but clear skies, so it's a beautiful sunny day. I detest being outdoors in anything below 60 degrees. I'm having my usual Sunday morning Bloody Marys, and mentally cataloging my fridge and freezer contents to figure out dinner. The last several meals have been seafood - crab cakes, linguine with scallops and brown butter, and shrimp tacos - so I think I'll shift from surf to turf and broil some lamb chops. Now I need to back up and figure out what to have for lunch. I'm craving a BLT as the tomato plants start to peter out, but don't have any bread. Boo.
