THURSDAY I ATE

Breakfast: Granola, cranberry juice
Morning Snack:  Blackberry pie
Lunch: Roast beef sandwich with blue cheese

Dinner: Ate at Revival in Berkeley. Meatball appetizer was delicious, but they were more spherical sausages than meatballs… the Kale “Ceasar” was also good, but nothing about it was at all Ceasar-like. The sea bass was delious
Dessert: Chocolate tart with peanut butter ice cream was fantastic

SATURDAY I ATE

Breakfast: Hot tea

SATURDAY I ATE

Breakfast: Doughnuts. Split a custard bomb with Tessa. Orange juice
Lunch: Sandwich of leftover chicken saltimbocca with cheddar cheese
Afternoon snack: Soft serve ice cream dipped in chocolate. Hello, 4th grade, I missed you. At Lake Anza. Shared with Tessa, and a lot of it dripped on my leg.
Dinner: A serious stroke of brilliance, though this experiment still needs some work. Chicken saltimbocca pizza. Caramelized an onion, with white wine and some lemon juice towards the end. Used that as the base of the pizza, then added the last of the leftover chicken, along with some prosciutto. Topped with grueyere cheese and sage. We ate it with a kale salad with a dressing of lemon juice, lemon zest, and olive oil. While we were eating, we decided that the kale salad was just what the pizza needed on top. Might experiment with this, or might add the kale before baking.
Dessert: Tessa and Suzanne made mint chocolate cupcakes with mint frosting. Awesome! I had two.
