What's for Dinner?

[Harp]

I realized last night that I'd probably need to go grocery shopping today, and I. REALLY. DIDN'T. WANT. TO. After making sure I had coffee for a couple days, I decided to see what I could throw together.. ..

I am similarly afflicted. The frig needs to be stocked but laziness precludes said and I will either make a pub pit stop tonite or hit the deli enroute home.

Subway sandwich, Doritos, and a Full Throttle to wash it down. Not only did I not feel like shopping, I didn't want to cook.

I hear you there.

Meatloaf, buttered rotini, spinach.

Home made crock pot vegetable soup. Rutabaga, carrot, parsnip, onion, celery, smoked sausage in tomato broth seasoned with salt pepper worcestershire sauce . Very tasty, the best soup I have made in quite a while.

Courtbullion... Cajun fish stew...over rice.

Center cut boneless pork chops seared in salted butter, loaded baked potatoes, asparagus.

Tamale pie. Think Mexican lasagna: enchilada sauce, taco seasoning, beef, olives, tomatoes layered with corn tortillas and Mexican cheese blend, then baked. Served with cream agria and avocado.

What I think is that I wish I'd been at your house for dinner. I had a pbj and a can of chicken soup.

Ha! Same here, Babydoll except I did a stove top version.

I share your sentiment as I had a peanut butter and marshmallow fluff sandwich (well, two) last night but no soup.

Babydoll seems to live in a much more adult world than I do.

I'm "the Mama". I set the weekly menu, grocery shop for ingredients, and cook every night. My joy in the process (which isn't always fun - especially when work is rough, like yesterday) is coming home to my "normal" life, plugging in to my family by making them a delicious meal, and helping Lily grow up to be an awesome human that has a wide variety of foods she loves.

Yum! Hubby came to "quality control" while I was assembling the layers. He snagged a tortilla, dipped it in the saucy meat, gobbled it down like a starving man, and said "that'll do". Silly man!

Last nite picked up a pak of windmill cookies-without almonds, and two bottles of craft cream soda; then returned home to an empty frig
and a sink full of dishes. Scarfed down both cookies and soda, read the New York Times, and completely forgot about the Notre Dame-Pitt game.
Irish edged Pitt.

 

[Babydoll]

Basil-parmesan pork patties, rice pilaf, broccoli, zucchini, and a small bowl of cottage cheese and fresh pineapple for dessert.

And just another day in the story of the adult world ⇧ of Babydoll's wonderful meals versus the Fading Fasts' sad world ⇩

Pasta with butter and pepper - that's it, other than a few store-bought gingersnap cookies for dessert.

Prior to super girlfriend and other than the dirty dishes (I was cleaning dishes as soon as I could reach the sink as a kid and have never left a dirty dish in a sink - was just pounded into my head growing up), you described a not uncommon night of mine as a single guy especially if you ate standing up over the sink or kitchen counter (clean up is much easier that way).

We eat butter noodles, too.

And, I must admit this is my own fault; about as disciplined as a teenager.
