A small bottle of Bolthouse Farms' Perfectly Protein (Vanilla Chai Tea with Soy Protein).

I'm hooked!

The sausage kale soup I made for dinner. I had been craving it for days, and things kept getting in the way of my making it - but today I finally made it, and it was GOOD.

Yesterday: homemade mac & cheese w/ sharp cheddar and fontina - first time I've made it myself and WOW!

Today: tall americano w/ half&half (from Starbucks, but far better than the office coffee swill, and far better than Starbucks' own drip coffee)

Yesterday: corn niblets tossed in the skillet with butter, onions, and finished with lime juice. A very simple yet tasty combination.

Today: a Starbuck's coffee, so far. It can only get better! :hmmm:

And they were oysters two.

Two oysters met two oysters

And they were oysters too.

Four oysters met a pint of milk

And they were oyster stew.

Be honest, when you're starving, stressed, & haven't had a chance to get

anything - at least the very first bite tastes WONDERFUL. Then

you chew, swallow, and later wonder "What was I thinking? That tasted

GOOD??" (Spoken by someone who deals with junior high students all day).

I made a metric shit-ton of curried butternut squash soup....it was good....especially with my french rolls that had just come out of the oven. Although....I had a few cheetos that were pretty dammed good also.

today:

All day rehearsals for county honors band. I managed to work in a position with the other slackers from my distrcit which involved watching the rehsearsal room while everyone else 'enjoyed' a school cafeteria lunch, then going out for lunch ourselves in town afterwards.

Anyway, they had a place in mind, someplace called the 'Steamed Bean' or 'Hot Bean' or something along those lines, this coffee shop which serves minimal fare on top of coffee. Upon discovering they served sandwhiches, soups, and salads, but had no kitchen, I decided a Turkey Club salad was the safest bet. In actuality, it was pretty good, the turkey was cold cuts, the bacon not quite warm, but the veggies were fresh and the blue cheese dressing (although there was not enough of it it fully coat the salad) was tasty. It hit the spot at the time while they enjoyed their cold cut sandwhiches and likely reconstituted canned soups.

Shitake mushrooms, onions, garlic, herbs, tomatoes, olive oil and butter (all mellowed out), on linguine. With COLD sparkling water (tingly bubbles). And Ben&Jerry's Heath crunch ice cream for dessert.

I rescind my earlier taste of the day.

Bacon. :wub:

It is all about respect; for the ingredient, for the process, for each other, for the profession.
