      I had more chicken salad, leftover roasted vegetable with and a nice bowl of mixed berries for desert along with my ounce of dark chocolate.

        Last night I made a sheet pan dinner. I've adapted the marinade from the Lemon Greek Potatoes to use on all kinds of things. I used Penzey's Greek seasoning instead of just oregano a minced garlic instead of grated; the rest is lemon zest, lemon juice, chicken broth, olive oil, S&P. I halved the marinade over chicken tenders and a combination of broccoli, cauliflower and a sweet potato - the broccoli/cauliflower was a bag of Green Giant precut florets as I still can't manage whole heads.

        Tonight was leftovers and tomorrow chicken salad.

          TBA - I placed an order before my surgery and was directed to the iHerb site with the same offer - they offer free shipping over $30 (instead of $50) but no using multiple coupons which is a bummer.

            I made a taco salad with ground chicken instead of beef. I found a Tex-mex salad dressing where I substituted Greek yogurt for the sour cream and it was nice and light - I used a salad mix, some red onion, tomatoes and avocados with grated cheddar and crushed Fritos - I have leftovers!

              Sorry to hear about your loss Joan. This is a nice rain and a good one for a pimento cheese sandwich. I had leftover chicken sausage, green beans and lemon potatoes

                Len, it's been there a long time - it started out small and just kept growing. We have a lot of snowbirds from the city and northern suburbs and they all seem to go there. When Will was in statuary last year, they would deliver all over the city. It's quite an operation - I got to see it last year when I was there.

                  So Len, where do you buy your vegetable plants? Just curious - my son works at Gesthemane

                    I made a sheet pan dinner with Greek Lemon potatoes, green beans tossed in the same marinade and chicken sausage. It was delicious and I have leftovers

                    Your tart looks beautiful, Kimbob.

                      Tonight I made a pasta dish that my friend said she and her husband eat on repeat. I'm glad I only made half the recipe as I found it rather bland. That may have been because I used mild Italian sausage instead of spicy, but I'll finish what I made and won't make it again.

                        Joan, I just checked the wildfire update on First Coast News - it was at 3:20 this afternoon - they got 1.5"of rain which helped a little, but they're still at 64% containment - I gather they are doing things like moving merchantible timber and breaking up berms to create firebreaks. It sounds like it's going to take a while - those poor people.

                        I had chicken salad and broccoli for dinner

                          We were so thankful for the rain today, Joan, not only for the drought but for the Brantley wildfire. We have a lot of team members who live in Brantley and the wildfire got close enough to the Glynn County line that there were voluntary and mandatory evacuations near the border. As of today it is 64% contained thankfully.

                          My friend left on Thursday, so I have my house back, but my physical therapist says I am fine in the house alone, still don't have full use of my right arm but it is improving - I should be able to drive by the end of next week. So I am eating leftovers that my friend made this week and I have easy food in the freezer.

                            Started rehab yesterday - mostly stretching and isometrics -still have to keep upper arm close to body - of course tired today.

                            Debby made a recipe from NYT that I had been eyeing - Broccoli White bean Caesar salad - definitely a keeper, but add an additional crow of broccoli - minor adaptations on prep (make dressing in processor instead of in bowl). To make for me, I would halve the recipe except for the broccoli

                                BA - I had my 2 week follow up today - the staples were removed and no more sling - I'm supposed to just be carefully using and stretching my right arm - PT starts on Monday. I had stopped the pain meds last Tuesday as I was not in pain - Tylenol is enough - I am still exhausted -as my doc pointed out this morning I did have major surgery! He lifted my right arm to where I could barely reach before the surgery and it didn't hurt the way it did 2 weeks ago - modern medicine is amazing - I can drive when I can reach the top of the steering wheel without pain. Will leaves tomorrow - I will miss him -and my friend Debby arrives for 2 weeks to help with rehab.
