I ate the remnants of a pecan pie when I came home from work. Damned
leftovers.

Open-faced turkey sandwiches, and a salad made of cooked/chilled green
beans, bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, scallions, celery, and a
balsamic vinaigrette.

Dinner will be bean-and-rice burritos made with adzuki beans and green
rice (recipe follows). I am finally on my new glorious schedule that
gives me time to stay home and cook, and I'm so happy I could burst.
Walked down to the thrift store to drop off some donations, stopped at
the coffeeshop to write for an hour or so while sipping English
Breakfast tea (with milk and sugar), and now I'm home finishing my
latest story (today I'm writing an essay on death and a ******* porn
story -- what a life!) and catching up on Usenet. I feel like the
luckiest person ever.

Green Rice

1 cup raw brown rice
2 T olive oil, divided
1 small onion, chopped
2 bell peppers, chopped
3 scallions, chopped
1 bunch parsley, minced

Saute the rice in 1 T of the oil until it starts to barely brown. Add
2 cups water. Bring to a boil, then cover and cook on the lowest heat
for 50 minutes. Take off the heat and leave covered for another 5-10
minutes.

While the rice is cooking, saute the onion in the rest of the oil and
a little bit of salt until the onion starts to turn translucent. Then
add the peppers and saute another few minutes, until the peppers are
softened. Remove from the heat, add the parsley and scallions, stir
until well combined, then set aside. When the rice is done, mix it
together with the green stuff and serve.

How would you like another spouse? :-)

Bob

Another half-cup of leftover chocolate fondue, along with a whole half
pint of blackberries. And some cookie dough and cold pizza. Ditto for
dinner, minus the blackberries.

I am not going anywhere near the scale...

Heh. I suppose that would depend on the spouse. I like the three I
have pretty well. :-)

Mrs. T's label notwithstanding, pierogi is the plural. One pierog, two
pierogi. Where;s Bubba Vic!!??

Lunch sounds pretty good. What kind of pierogi?

They were the potato-and-onion ones.

That's pretty funny (to me, only, no doubt). Those are about the
easiest ones to make -- and the ones I rarely get around to making. The
Fifth Annual Pirohy Marathon is coming up (or should be; the date hasn't
yet been set) and we make sauerkraut because they are most popular and,
IMNSHO, the worst to make; we do cottage cheese-filled, too, because
they're also popular. Brother Dan's cottage cheese filling sucks so I
make it.

Chris is leaving going back to Tucson on Friday; I might make a batch of
pirohy for us for supper tomorrow. You've got me thinking about it and
I've got plenty of spuds.

Went to Costco where I saw Annie's mac n cheese for the first
time (from the cheese straw thread). Funny how that happens.

Afterward went to lunch at my old haunt, haven't been there
in forever. Place is looking pretty good, and it was fun to see
some of the old specials. Got the crab meltaways, they were
really good (french bread with crab and jack cheddar melted
on it). Lunch comes with a cup of soup, for the hell of it I got
the southwestern chicken, that was good too. Got Mr. Lee's
sesame chicken with broccoli. Was very good, the broc was
really fresh, just steamed.

The chicken will make a nice lunch for tomorrow, too.
