MONDAY I ATE

Lunch: Leftover turkey pot pie
Afternoon snack: Leftover peppermint brownies eaten out at the end of the Bay Bridge. Tessa’s first time doing that ride all by herself.
Dinner: Tacos. We were in the checkout line when we realized we forgot the taco seasoning. So we turned to that classic tome of Mexican cuisine: The Joy of Cooking. The taco recipe includes a can of tomato sauce, which seemed weird. At the end of the day, with the addition of a little extra chili powder, they were fantastic.
Dessert:  Flourarrangements lemon bars. The photo edition.

SUNDAY I ATE

Breakfast: Pancakes with syrup and applesauce
Morning Snack: Pancake sandwiches with penuche frosting and chocolate chips. This was a spur-of-the-moment decision as there were some leftover pancakes just sitting there at the same time Suzanne decided that a batch of frosting wasn’t properly spreadable and decided to make another. These were fantastic.

Lunch: Leftover pizza rolls
Afternoon snack: Hot cocoa. Coke zero.
Dinner: Burger stuffed with gorgonzolla, topped with saute’d onions and in a bun made from the pizza roll recipe. I tried something I’ve wanted to do for a while: cook the stuffed burgers sous vide. It was a successful experiment, but I should have charred them more at the end.
I also added some mozarella to try to bind the blue cheese, and that was wholly successful.

FRIDAY I ATE

Breakfast: Oatmeal with brown sugar
Lunch: Leftover Mac&Cheese
Afternoon snack: Coke zero, plus some double stuff Oreos. Damn, but those are good!
Dinner: Experimental pizza rolls. Very, very tasty. A lot like the cheese zombies.
Dessert: None. Can you believe it? Of course, the day isn’t over yet.

WEDNESDAY I ATE

Breakfast: Grapenuts, cranberry juice
Lunch: Turkey sandwich with cranberry
Afternoon snack: 2 milky way dark, coke zero
Dinner: Stuffed spinach and mushroom pizza from Zacchry’s
Dessert: Experimental persimmon cake (for Suzanne’s dad). It was way better than I was expecting… more like a carrot cake (which I also don’t love). So I’d never order it for my birthday, but I started with the smallest sliver I could cut and ended up going back for more.
