What's for Dinner, Wed., April 1, 2015
I think I'll stop by TJs and pick up some more butternut squash tortellini and knock off the rest of my pumpkin soup tonight.
I'll also make a spinach salad, as I was able to get some more of that super-fresh spinach from the Chinese market on my break between classes.
<<<had Yoplait strawberry yogurt for supper.
<<<as was sort of hungry, piggishly had two of them, 6-ounce containers.

1. Cornish Pasties
An old family recipe handed down for the last couple of hundred years. My (now deceased) grandmother showed my wife how to make them thirty years ago. No written recipe, just handed down by demonstration over the years.

3. Corn chips and humus
And a brownie.
<<<saw humus in plastic bags piled on wooden pallets outside of the hardware store in town today, with all the other gardening stuff on display.
<<<wasn't aware humus is edible; thought it was just fertilizer.

4. Baked chicken
with some steamed broccoli. I was thinking about some sort of rice dish, but still not sure what I'm in the mood for as of yet.

7. Chicken fried rice.
Well, chicken flavoured rice, really. No chicken in it, just some broth.
Took my Dad to the grocery today, and he was astonished to see big bags of kale. He grew up on a farm, and was used to eating kale, but had no idea it had become so trendy that it was being sold in pre-wrapped bags like salad mixes are these days.

Tonight was a mix of wild rice, brown rice, corn, green beans and carrots all in their own microwaveable bag. Our dog really loves her vegetables.

I wonder if the DUmmies with pets make them eat the scraps.

I never considered ranking foods by their explosive potential in the gut.
I have heard of a gut bomb.
But if there is a gut firecracker, surely that would rank at the low end of the explosive scale.
Then you could have...
Gut M-80
Gut blasting cap
Gut grenade
Then maybe gut bomb ?

I wonder if all DUmmie kale eating enjoyment is a result of learned behavior or genetics.

13. i half-assed dinner tonight
chicken cutlets just seasoned with garlic powder and salt and just dropped in a pan with a bit of olive oil. instant mashed potatoes. i did make a hoisin and sriracha dipping sauce for it. it wasn't bad, just nothing special.
work is still kicking my ass, but we have have broken the budget ordering in and it's time for me to get my act back together. i pulled some bone in, skin on thighs and a pork roast from the freezer and will get my cooking on this weekend.
