Bacon and an Over Easy 'Oops' Fried Egg - I need to work on my egg turning skills!

Quick, late lunch at Sawa Mediterranean Restaurant and Grill in Houston's Clear Lake Area Chicken Shawarma with Garlic Sauce for my husband, Gyro for me (there were onions and tomatoes tucked in there with lots of tzatziki sauce), and a small piece of housemade Baklava to share.

Beef Taco Nachos

Last slice, reheated in the toaster oven.

I was having a similar issue, but now I just add the gasket to the dishes in the dishwasher and no more odors.

Taco Night!

Stopped for take out on my way home. House Special Fried Rice - Chicken, Beef and Shrimp.

Sunday Dinner out at a local Malaysian restaurant called Malay Malay in League City. This was our first visit and we really enjoyed everything we tasted. The view of the bar area from our table. Appetizers: Roti Canai (Indian Style Pancake) with a Curry Chicken and Potato Dipping Sauce and Mixed Satay (Chicken and Beef) with a Peanut Dipping Sauce Sizzling Black Pepper Shrimp and Vegetables (came with white rice) Beef Rendang with Green Beans and Cucumber (came with Coconut Rice)

Smothered Pork Butt Steak

I love Houston's Spinach and Artichoke Dip!

Wasn't real hungry, so skipped the eggs and just had the bacon and my tea.

Some of the leftover Teriyaki Flank Steak, from last night, with smashed steamed potatoes topped with butter and sour cream.

Sous Vide Teriyaki Flank Steak with Onions, Basmati Rice and Broccoli.

Teriyaki Flank Steak - the Flank steak was marinated in a teriyaki sauce for 24 hours, removed from the marinade, patted dry, rebagged and cooked at 129F for about 2 hours, then seared on the grill.

My freezer is not looking so bare! I made a grocery stop while running errands yesterday and restocked the pot pies, veggies, ice cream, etc. and also added some chicken tenders, a flat iron steak, a couple lbs. of ground chuck, and a pot roast to the meat drawer. Our nearby neighborhood little Walmart had lost power during H. Harvey, so they had to toss all the meat, dairy, frozen products and most of the produce, etc. The store has now been mostly restocked.

Pan-fried Panko and Parmesan Crusted Chicken Tenders with a Creamy Parmesan Garlic Sauce, Buttered Green Peas and Crash Hot Potatoes with Rosemary

Good morning! Toasted English Muffin with Cream Cheese and a cup of Irish Breakfast Tea

I was craving seafood! I forgot to take the photo until after I started eating! So good! Grilled Shrimp and Catfish at Floyd's Cajun Seafood in Webster ~ And a Side Salad with Honey-Mustard Dressing

Meat Sauce and Rotini with Parmesan (I have my stove back! Yay!)

We did not actually lose much due to lack of power to the freezer - mostly some veggies and pot pies that got soggy. We did not lose any of our frozen meats, which were stored in the bottom drawer and packed with ice. Since we were on generator power for five days I did not buy any more meat, instead, using this as an opportunity to see what I could do with what we had on hand.

Thanks to lack of power due to Hurricane Harvey, I think I have met the challenge! Time to restock!

Friday Night Out ~ We Have A New Favorite Burger Joint! ~ TJ Reed's Better Burgers & Shakes in Dickinson ~ The restaurant got over two feet of water from Hurricane Harvey, but they were able to get in on Wednesday to clean up and reopened yesterday.
