Our cheese pizza last night was excellent; we really liked the great brown and chewy crust from the cast iron pan. I have another dough ball left and will make a foccacia out of that and I think I'll do that in the pan, too. I took a container of pasta sauce out of the freezer last night for spaghetti and meatballs. Dessert? Rick has asked for an apple dumpling, also from the freezer. He will have his with French vanilla ice cream; mine will be plain.
late night snack; sharp American cheese on Italian bread
Dinner last night was 2 PBJ, I've been craving them lately
earlier I had egg salad, one Pink Lady apple and a Granny Smith
Not sure about tonight.
EDIT: Nicole just called. She's sending down homemade bean soup and cornbread, yum!

I can't speak for the others, but yes, I still eat dairy and eggs, so am lacto-ovo-vegetarian. Or, simply vegetarian, as by definition vegetarians don't eat meat, chicken or fish, aka products or by-products of slaughter, which dairy and eggs are not.
There's more info here: What is a Vegetarian | The Vegetarian Society

I found Cosmic Crisp apples at the independent market 
They cost less too than at the supermarket, $1.98 vs $2.99. I bought two to try.
There were also Autumn and Sweetie apples which I had never heard of before:
Tonight is some leftovers from the freezer, enough for tomorrow's dinner too. Tuesday I get the prepared meal kit
I'm not sure how I'm going to get a shopping bag with all the boxes and the pizza home by public transportation. I might have to request a Lyft ride.Interesting
I probably mentioned this before but I used to work with someone who claimed to be a strict vegetarian but ate dairy (regular ice cream, cheese, etc) and eggs and even calamari 
I don't know, maybe it's trendy for people in her age group to claim to be on certain diets but not actually follow it

$1.98 p/lb is a good price for the Cosmic Crisp - please let me know how they taste when you try one.
Ha!!! Back in the 90s, I worked with someone who did the same thing!! She would tell anyone who would listen about her vegetarianism. Well, one day I came back from lunch and brought half of my Courthouse burger with me. It was a huge cheeseburger with fries and coleslaw on it, soo good. She walked by my cubicle and said, "Oh that smells really good." I told her it was a CH burger and it was so huge I couldn't eat it all. She was looking at me and at it, so I said "Do you want it?" She whispered, "Please don;t tell anyone."Interesting
She took it back to her cube and came by about an hour later and thanked me again. A few months later I saw her in the cafeteria eating one of those small sized Chef-Boyardee raviolis. I teased her about it and said my lips are sealed. I don't why she felt she had to
hide it but she was very young about 21-22.

Me too! I don't have much dairy, use almond milk or coconut milk, and don't eat eggs often but unless you omit them from your diet completely you are a lacto-ovo-vegetarian as

your coworker is not a strict vegetarian because calamari comes from squid.
Thanks for the recipes. That is just what I wanted.I hope notThey probably got bruised from rough shipping. I try not to buy produce from the supermarket anyways. The produce is never good quality, if there are any on display
Did you try Googling for recipes? I found these:

This one has more ingredients but you can use short-cut methods like buying store-prepared chopped onions and sliced fresh mushrooms and a jar of minced garlic :

Yes, I did google but I could not find any that I wanted.

That person claimed that calamari wasn't real meat, it was just cartilage. Um, sure
Calamari is just another name for squid and squid is an animal, one that lives in the ocean so it's seafood. This person should know better especially since she volunteers at the local aquarium.But back to the topic of dinner now....
Let us know if you try any of those recipes
I think mushroom soup would be nice with some crusty bread to sop up the liquid 
That sounds good. A nice pizza with just sauce and cheese.
I try but not always. How are you feeling?
Yes, I am a lactro-ovo-vegetarian. I was vegan for 22 years but gave it up because I missed my pizza.
By the way I am a vegetarian because I don't believe in killing animals. Not because of my health.
I am not feeling much better. Yesterday I threw up all day. I go for another test on Tuesday. I have not found out anything yet. It is taking forever.
We’ve had a few rough days here and I’m too exhausted to cook. I’m waiting for pizza delivery.

It was bitter cold out but we didn't want to sit in the house so went to the movies and stopped at an independent grocery store on the way home. I picked up Spanish rice and will have it with two garbanzo cakes for dinner. Blueberries were on sale for a great price so that will be my dessert.
Spaghetti with marinara sauce, garlic bread and fresh pineapple for desert
Were they a year old?
For lunch I had the most amazing sandwich! I usually only use one of these, but I used all 3 on the same sandwich- 2 TB hummus, 2 TB Cashews, 1 TB Sunflower Seeds. Then Tomato, raw Spinach, Swiss Cheese. All on a huge toasted egg bagel.
OMG it tasted so healthy & fresh! Beans, nuts, and seeds taste wonderful all together.
For dinner I had an Amy's Burrito cooked in the oven this time, I finished up my bottle of salsa brava hot taco sauce.
That sandwich sounds delicious!
