I must be the first one up MMP

Especially something as pathetic as Progresso :). (Says the woman who’s taking a can of Campbell’s Chunky clam chowder to work as lunch.)

I believe I may ask some folks in addition to Swampy to spoiler their menus. :dubious:

I’m actually quite enjoying reading them.

Off to tailgate. maybe somebody else shows up ,too.

Something’s wrong! I wanted some Ting Wong for dinner but now I’ll have to come up with something else. Should I go buy something to cook (where I can give an extensive ingredient list & preparation steps) or go out? Hmmm.

For lunch I had some white pizza; the standard pizza crust, cheese, oil & spices. I used a couple of napkins to blot the excess oil before consuming it; washed down with a blackberry iced tea.

Tonight, I am eating garlic grilled white meat chicken with penne pasta and creamy mozzarella cheese in a tomato basil sauce.

It’s perfectly seasoned grilled white meat chicken married with al dente penne pasta and mozzarella cheese in a robust tomato basil sauce that is sure to become a favorite in my dining room

I remember realizing that I could read when I could translate the labels on containers of food when I was very young.

Since Spidey asked for the excruciating details of what we are havin’ for dindin, I present you the excruciating details of Hamburger Helper Stroganoff. Don’t judge! Scroll down to read all the excruciating details.

For breakfast this morning, I had a scrambled egg with provolone and some Tapatias hot sauce on a toasted multi-grain sandwich thin. A cup of Honduran light roast coffee with stevia and 2% milk kept me caffeinated.

Lunch was a lovely garden salad made from carefully torn romaine lettuce, red grape tomatoes, diced orange bell pepper, baby Portobello mushrooms and half a slice of pan grilled pork tenderloin and dressed with a nice balsamic vinaigrette. Baby carrots served as an appetizer and some tropical fruit CarbMaster™ yogurt and a red pear was dessert. Fair Trade light roast coffee (made in the Keurig at irk) and doctored with Splenda™ and 2% milk (gotta get the calcium in some way) was the beverage.

I haven’t decided where to go for supper, but maybe Thai or Indian? :smiley:

So, our A/C stopped working on Monday, turned out to be a coolant leak. The maintenance guy decided that instead of trying to fix it, he’s just going to have replaced. Even better, the new unit is a 2.5 ton, the old one was 2 tons.
[/QUOTE]

Bigger is not necessarily better for AC, unless the old unit was undersized. If the house becomes cool and clammy, it’s too big. :eek: But 2.5 from 2 is probably OK. I’ve seen people do the Tim the Toolman thing and put something like a 4 ton unit in a house that should have a 2 or 2.5, and then wonder why they feel damp.

DH is home and recovering from the first of six rounds of medically-supervised poisoning. No problems at this point, just piles of fatigue, which was expected. I’m just glad his care team is on top of everything. His regular daily meds have been sliced and diced, replacing meds that are incompatible with chemo with better alternates and using all of the anti-nausea, anti-infection, etc meds available. OTOH, not found of having to give him an injection every night for the next month.

ETA: Forgot to say that Mountain Mike will probably be cooking dinner for us tonight. He’s been craving pepperoni pizza all week.

Lunch was a Chicken Bake from Costco, followed by some warm cinnamon bread for afternoon snack.

gotti yay for DH bein’ home and good for you for bein’ his caretaker. May he continue to have no problems.

Time to retire to the boudoir to watch teevee and other stuff until sleepy time.

Nitey Nite Y’all!

I think originally it was just dinner but I never was one to be stingy when it comes to picking on Flytrap. :slight_smile:

Speaking of dinner -------- I did go with leftovers of a sort. I had some smoked pork from this summer in the freezer so I shredded it slightly and heated it slowly bathed in a light BBQ sauce with just a hint of extra garlic and some Cajun seasoning. I got some buns from a local store (Giant Eagle) that are very airy inside but with a good firm crust that could stand up to the moisture from the sauce. This way we could have it as a sandwich or more open-faced and dinner-like. The OW went that route while I did the basic sandwich. With it we both had milk because milk does a body good; at least the advertising campaign said so.

I wonder what kind of food he’ll be having at the tailgate? :wink:

If you do eat out, be sure to give a detailed review. I do drive through your area now and then and could benefit from it. :wink:

That may be one of the most riveting nutritional panels I’ve ever read. I would have never guessed the iron content was 4%! :smiley:

We had donkey offal and elephant tripe for dinner.

dammit.

Folks who eat really gross stuff should spoiler their menus as a public service.
:dubious:

Home at last! We stopped at Rip’s for supper (Spidey, Tugig, BBBobbio, and I lunched there once.) Between the traffic from the airport, the time at the restaurant, and the traffic from there home, we spent way too much time enroute. But we’re here now, enjoying lemon meringue pie and chilling.

Laterz! MWAH!!

Ended up with homemade steak sammichs. On Amoroso’s rolls. Cheese choices were American or sharp provolone, along with the option to make it a pepperoni cheesesteak.
Thank you all for you detailed dinners (& lunches & breakfasts, too). It means so much to me that we can collectively band together, one-for-all & all-for-one-style…

…just to piss off flytrap! :smiley: :cool: :slight_smile:

I’m sure this will have Flytrap’s head spinning

For lunch I had four mini reece’s cups, then for pre-dinner I had Larry’s mashed potatoes with cheddar cheese, fresh from the freezer and nuked for 4.5 minutes.
For dinner I had an apple and a pack of toast chee crackers with reduced fat peanut butter, 6 grams of protein.
Now I am having Nissin cup noodles, beef flavor. Enough sodium in one serving to last a week. I eat part of it and then add extra water.

One last meal.

I went for comfort food, where the waitresses (no, they don’t like to be called servers there) are old enough (or nearly so) to be my mom, feed me like she did, call me honey or sweetie and tell me to have a blessed day when they bring the handwritten check. Supper was nicely fried catfish and hushpuppies, pinto beans with sidemeat and turnip greens with pepper vinegar.

There’s a reason that I eat salads for lunch all week.
