For Thursday, I had some thawed chicken tenders in the fridge so on my way home I picked up some asparagus (on sale) and some tiny Yukon gold potatoes. I made a sheet pan dinner. I tossed the asparagus and potatoes in olive oil and roasted them at 425. I tossed the tenders in some of my honey mustard dressing and added them to the pan for another ten minutes. It was all perfect - I just added a little S&P for serving. I have dinner for the next couple of nights.

I will have to bake some bread on Sunday and also start resuscitating the sourdough starter.

Navlys - you can freeze the raviolis and then take out how ever many you want to cook. That's what Will and I do with the large bags of Rana when they are on sale.

Tonight I have Stouffer's Swedish meatballs with a shredded carrot salad. I just got home from Chicago and that's all I had in the house.

Len, I really enjoyed your city and had a great time with Will. It's great to see him in his element.

I had some ravioli from the freezer with a no-cook pasta sauce made with chopped cherry tomatoes, garlic, butter, lemon zest, Italian herbs, S&P and Parmesan. I realized after that olive oil would be better than butter - I'll try it next time

I cooked up the mushrooms and spinach I had in the fridge with an onion and had some with a chicken sausage. Trying to use up everything before I go the Chicago. I have enough of the veges for tomorrow night.

I get it - so are onClouds. I also have custom orthotics for them. But they are comfortable. I'm actually waiting for another pair, so I don't go through them so fast, but considering I don't spend money on lots of shoes, it probably evens out.

Thank you BA and Joan. I'm going to see Will - haven't seen him since he moved in January - he's very happy now so it will be fun. They say as a paren you are only as happy as your least happy child - it's nice to have them both happy!

As to shoes BA, I currently live in my OnClouds (per my foot doctor) and flip flops (barefoot still preferred) I have some "dress-up" flats and that's about it - I was never a shoe person😁

After work, I went to Harris teeter to pick up something frozen - they had 4 Stouffers for $10 so I now have a small stash in my freezer.

The reason for this is that I went to my foot doctor today as my right foot was very sore and I was having trouble walking. I'm also supposed to leave for Chicago on Thursday - I hope this storm is gone by then. Turns out I have a stress fracture - so I have this lovely designer (not) shoe to wear for at least the next two weeks. My doctor said it would help with getting through the airport and such and I must say it does keep my foot from hurting too much.

So for dinner I had stouffer's Mac and cheese with frozen peas - lots of carbs but definitely comfort food

I had chicken salad, the rest of the zucchini and an English muffin. It was hot today - fall has yet to arrive on the coast of Georgia

I made chicken salad from the rotisserie chicken I got yesterday. I sautéed shredded zucchini for my vegetable

Last night I had English muffins with cheese and a mandarin orange. Tonight I brought home a blackened piece of salmon that I needed to finish cooking - it was perfect! I had it on a salad with honey mustard dressing from a recipe from Real Simple - the balance in the dressing is perfect. It was published as a honey mustard sauce made with mayo (also good) but it had a variation with olive oil which is what I make.

I made chicken piccata meatballs with brown rice and green beans. As BA says, I have planned overs for the next few nights.i adapted a recipe from Southern Living. I baked the meatballs instead of sautéing/frying them. While they were in the oven I made the sauce, to which I added the meatballs q when they came out of the oven. Last time the meatballs were perfect, this time overcooked - not sure why. But I wonder if the ground chicken I used last time had more fat. Might have to look into that.

I made tuna salad with a green salad and tortilla chips

Happy Birthday, Mike! I hope you had a great day!

Calabrian peppers are known to be hot - they're actually an Italian chili pepper. I tend to steer away from them
