Menu Monday

Well, I think I owe everyone an apology, I have been a lazy bum and have not been making my menus. This leads to dining chaos in our house. We can't decide what we want to eat, so dinner is late and generally full of random unhealthiness. And there is never enough for leftovers (aka-lunch)! So, that being said, I will TRY to make a conscious effort to not suck. Many apologies.

Mon: BLT's
Tues: Dinner & a Movie with C, E&F and Hubs
Wed: Grilled Chicken Salads
Thurs: Penne a la Vodka with meatballs (make extra and freeze 'em!)
Fri: OUT
Sat: OUT
Sun: OUT or leftovers

Dessert: Homemade frozen yogurt :-)

Subway Pulled Pork

Subway, Eat Fresh?

Today, due to our bare fridge, I went to Subway for lunch. I have been looking forward to their Pulled Pork Sub for weeks. I was hoping for something reminiscent of a Cuban or something of the like. What I got was a wet, mushy, pile of lukewarm fibrous matter. Drowned in yellow mustard and bbq.

It did NOT look like this, it might be it's drunk third cousin once removed....but nothing more.

Not only did they sabotage my lunch (all $10 of it), but the girl at the counter emptied the trash and then man-handled my sandwich WITH THE SAME GLOVES! After all the years I spent in food service, they harped on the importance of NOT cross contaminating and changing your gloves after you do ANYTHING. That is a HUGE NO NO! EWWW! Needless to say, I will NOT be giving my patronage to that Subway again.

Dinner Success!

Hello All (er...both of you?),

Last night's dinner was delicious (at least I thought so). I think the beef recipe might be making it into our regular rotation. The menu was as follows:

French dip sandwiches on crusty bread 
Oven Fries
Corn
Green beans
and no dessert (my apologies to all, I ran out of time)

I love recipes like the french dip because the leftover beef is available for yet another full meal. I think I may make Friday dinner, beef tacos.

Happy Cooking!

Friday Breakast

Today's breakfast is brought you by my NEW fridge!

The old one decided 66 was the new 44. SO not cool. I lost all my fresh produce, milk, creamer, cheese and some leftovers. Boo! But our maintenance guy brought over a new fridge within 2 hours of making the request. Have a great weekend!
