SATURDAY I ATE

Breakfast: Pancakes. Thanks, Eliza (but clean up the kitchen next time, ‘K?)

Morning Snack: Chocolate chip cookie… you know, just so I had an excuse to sit in a coffee house and work.

LunchHot dog at Costco

Dinner:  Stuffed pork chops. Kato-Reillys and Patrick visiting. Sadly, I once again overcooked them. These are one of my favorite recipes, but the thin meat on each side of the stuffing is really hard to cook just right. Next time, I’ll try sous vide.

Dessert: experimental sweet potato pie with homemade marshmallows… still needs some flavor tweaking

SUNDAY I ATE

Breakfast: Doughnuts from All Star. The usual: custard-filled chocolate bomb

Morning Snack: Apple and red cheese

LunchChicken sandwich

Afternoon snack: Kettle corn at the pumpkins patch. Didn’t get any pumpkins, though, because they wanted $20 for a basketball-sized one. I wish them well, but that’s a lot to pay for a gourd that’s just going to rot on the front steps 

Dinner:  Leftover beef tenderloin.

Dessert: Leftover lime-pineapple cake. Still delicious
