What's for dinner?→[More:]Me: Egg-white omelette with mushrooms, cheese, and bell peppers plus avocado on toast
That sounds very healthy, unsurprising. My dinner was some very unhealthy sesame beef from the local Chinese take-out. Now I am debating whether to eat cake or popcorn whilst watching the last disk of BSG 2.5.
True Confession: Suppertime came upon us suddenly, finding us exhausted after a long day, and wandering the aisles of the only supermarket open past 9 PM. We had a lovely organic-type pizza picked out, but an imp seized me, and we ended up having...pigs in blankets. With Hebrew National dogs and crescent roll dough.
Big lunch led to a dinner of chips and salsa; which I do consider the 5th food group. Not a big soda drinker, but I did all but finish off a 2 litre of Coke.
Sugary goodness prevails!
spontaneous meetup with friends (and wrangling of 3 babies) led to delicious escarole for dinner, and we were supposed to have pizza afterwards, but the evening devolved into whisky and wine.
Dinner was a sudden decision occurring after a miscommunication: I thought The Fella was bringing home take out, he thought I was excited to test out a new recipe. Oops.
Since the fridge was nearly cleaned out, I threw together a few things quickly from the pantry and vegetable bin: eggs in black beans, roasted vegetables, and beer bread. It was great.
I had a really fun dinner! A bunch of friends got together and ordered a giant amount of food from a really good Thai place in Queens and two of them went to pick it up and bring it back to one house for a big thai feast. I got green papaya salad and drunken noodles with tofu, which were great and very spicy.
I also tried some fried watercress which was new to me and kind of interesting but mostly I just tasted "fry"
There was also a lot of beer.
