What's For Dinner? - 2022

[iPappy]

I went to get my little guy's ashes today, and on the way home I swung through a food joint and grabbed a sandwich and shake. I'm really getting bad about that convenience thing. But he loved snacks, and I figure if his last car ride home included a bag of carry out food, I'm OK with that.
I had stopped to buy dog and cat food and they didn't have the size of frozen food I wanted for Livie, so I bought a big bag. No big deal, it will keep. I was trying to make space in my freezer. 2 breadsticks are in this box, so wrap them up and get rid of the box. I can cram 2 hamburger patties in this tiny little spot. Why is there an empty box here? I'd better eat two of these ice cream bars to make more room (LOL). I removed and re-arranged some more. I found myself getting the theme to Tetris stuck in my head (and I still can't get it out). Eventually I made a spot for the food. Yay!
I turned around and realized there was some chicken thighs on the counter I had set aside, and had no room for, so into the fridge they went to thaw and tomorrow I'm going to say "I don't care if you want Panera, shut up and eat this." I will probably mix it with either a sweet potato (yum) with butter and honey (double yum!) or some broccoli and mixed veggies.

Sorry I missed your Bean Soup.

the last of some macaroni and cheese with broccoli, and a bit of (extra from making stuffed peppers this afternoon, filling which i baked in a mini loaf pan...meatloaf style) ground beef/rice/etc. dessert will be a slice of banana bread and maybe a few red seedless grapes, later this evening.

Mamanyt1953 what are dinosaur potatoes?

remember when I was eating itty nuggets with smiling potatoes? Those were mashed potatoes formed into smiley faces, then given a thin coating of something that became a little crispy when heated. NOW, they've changed the smiley faces to dinosaurs. There are brontosauruses and t. rexes and stegosauruses. Yes, I eat like a kid. Sometimes.

Tonight's lunch was cheeseburger macaroni. Dinner will be either a chimichanga or taquitoes. Either is a good excuse for sour cream!

Pepperoni pizza. I just haven't decided if it's Digiorno or homemade. A few weeks ago, I tried a focaccia-type pizza from Cook's Country. The crust was excellent and, since it was a no-knead dough, it was so easy to make. It's been calling to me.
Since Dear Richard bowls tonight, though, it may be a Digiorno pizza. Easier yet.

Sorry I missed your Bean Soup.

Me too!

Leftover soup from last night...I have a small amount of homemade noodles that need a home,so I think they'll go in the soup and I'll make a small pan of sour cream cornbread just for something different.

It's too bad we live so far apart as I would enjoy sampling some your cuisine.

For the first time in weeks I had lunch today. I made a sandwich, chips and had an ice cream bar. And thought about a second
Dinner was chicken and potatoes, simple but good comfort food. I was too stuffed for dessert. I've yet to try those cookies I bought last Friday.

 

[catapault]

Hamburgers on toasted buns with slice of American cheese and squirt of ketchup. Home fries. Carrots and peas.

Himself had a chocolate chip cookie for dessert, I had some ice cream. Weather is getting chilly for ice cream, better enjoy it while I can.

 

[Winchester]

It should be FryDay (Friday)

Fried ham with fried potatoes and fried eggs. With the leftover coleslaw. And toast. Because I just love toast.
I can't tell you when the last time was that I actually fried something.

Can you treat yourself to a favorite take out meal once or twice via contact-free Door Dash? (It's crazy expensive here, but maybe just as a way to break up the boring-ness or the same thing every day?) I hope this period of time goes quickly for you and gf!
