So, today when I went to pick MastaG up after school, he was getting in the car singing (literally) the praise of leftover night.
His plan for dinner:
“First a waffle. Then I’m thinking some pizza. And then, after that, I’m going to hit the hamburger helper.”
I can understand some of his enthusiasm. Both the lady and I know our way around the kitchen, and after my king hell sick last weekend, I had an abnormally large desire to cook and eat delicious foods.
That, and, well, we’re broke this week, so no eating out.
Anyway, the choices are
- Hamburger helper - Cheesy Macaroni or something. We had this Sunday, so its a little long in the tooth, but he doesn’t seem to care. Its good for the immune system.
- Pizza - Monday’s the 5 dollar pizza night. I had some hardcore craving for pizza.
- Fried Chicken - Tuesday, on top of getting the badass bed (which is like sleeping on God’s feather pillow), I made the tastiest fried chicken I’d ever made. Could have been the extra egg, could have been the frozen flour and cornmeal, could have been the graham crackers. Point is, damn, damn, damn, it was tasty.
- Spaghetti - A perpetual favorite in the AT household. We make it good, and we make it plentiful. I had some for lunch today.
- Waffles- Almost forgot that one, it was Sunday’s breakfast, and my first “back to life” food. Bullet got me a bitchin Belgian waffle grill for Christmas, and we had to take it for a test run. Yum.
So, yeah. Now that I think about it, I’m kinda psyched for leftover night too…

We had leftover bean soup from Monday, not quite ripened enough to be good for the immune system, but none the less tasty. Lienenkugel Berrywiess was a nice addition (you can pick it up at the market on georgia and tennessee). They surprisingly have some quality beer in there, but not all that diverse. I’ve been missing the selection at Sam’s Party store in Knoxville… but then again, Sam’s party store didn’t have the extremely round little pink dog. I went in there this past summer and it was eating ice cream right out of the half pint package. Good stuff.

TheNoisyOne (my Mom) has subscribed to an online menu service because she is sick of making decisions all the time about food. Last night we had a cassarole that was supposed to emulate a nacho bowl (the kind with the chilli and cheese and green onions) but failed miserably. It had too much pureed black beans and tasted like paper.
Tonight we chucked the menu out the window and had fish and broccoli in a cheese sauce. Yum!

Wow…if any of you guys feel like sending me some food sometime, I won’t complain. Last night I had a turkey sandwich and some vanilla yoghurt. Tonight? turkey sandwich and vanilla yoghurt.

Online menu service, huh? That sounds Canadian.

jenwright, if you want the address of the menu service, I can have TheNoisyOne send it to you. Its actually from the States, not Canada.
