SO...I got a can of Campbell's Cream of Bacon soup the other day...not that I have any interest in Cream of Bacon soup, but it sounded like something I could play with a bit. Last night, I made biscuits, and diluted the soup with JUST enough water to make it a gravy consistency. Tasted a tiny bit, thought, "WOW! Not bad, but SALTY!" Imagine my surprise when I found it not quite salty enough when served over the biscuits! The bread just "ate up" the salt flavor! But again, not bad. Certainly not homemade good, but not bad. I'll be having the rest of it for my lunch, but served over toast. I'll also be getting a can of it to use when I make my VERY old-fashioned, original green bean casserole, replacing the Cream of Mushroom soup with the Bacon. I do love bacon with green beans! And it will play well with the French's onions!

Dinner will be God knows what. I have no clue.

Today was an end of summer garden meal... we had whole wheat pasta with tomatoes and last of the basil from the garden. Some garlic cloves thrown into the olive oil. Super light and fresh - no cheese needed. I will miss this taste of summer!

Yesterday it was a TJ Butternut squash Mac & Cheese and a slice of chocolate pound cake from the bakery.

Tonight, since the hot water is shut off, I will have a chicken salad sandwich.. Using paper plates, plastic utensils all day.. sigh. They are doing some work on the water heater.. The shut down began at 7 AM. Was up early to make sure my dishes are washed and my shower is done.

sigh-- I could use another cup of coffee.. Oh, I have disposable hot cups!! Yay!
So good to be a "semi-prepper".. so prepared!
