We had a large lunch at TGI Fridays with my fiance's best woman, so we weren't hungry for dinner. We snacked on a few healthy things, but now I'm having some ice cream and hot chocolate for dessert.
We were going to go out for pizza but since the weather got nasty and started snowing we made grilled cheese sandwiches instead w/fries. Fresh blackberries for dessert.
We had planned on grilling some rib-eye steaks because it was such a lovely warm spring day.
But we went for a long drive (2/10 ths short of 100 m) Went to Baskett Slough NWR and saw tons of Canadian Geese and all manners of ducks. Drove up to Silverton and my DH showed me all the fields of Christmas trees that he's planted...some that are ready for harvest this year.
Then we stopped for dinner at a lovely little place called McCleay Inn. I had a Big Rueben and DH had a Malibu Chicken Sandwich, both served with their famous macaroni salad.
Am in the process of making a pot of Chicken Vegetable soup, with bowtie pasta. I will have some of that, and maybe make up a batch of biscuits to go with it. And for dessert some more Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream. With the yucky weather we are having again here today nice hot soup is just what the doctor ordered.
Actually, there's a bit of pork -- the unpretty ends of the tenderloin I used the other night -- that I'll use in a stirfry with lots of veggies in a peanut sauce, and likely Jasmine Rice. Dessert? Who knows!
I took some chicken breasts out of the freezer before I left so I'll have them with honey soy marinade and some sides - maybe garlic bread and coleslaw?
Ummm...the pork we were going to have last night. When it came time to cook, I realized that what I really wanted was Shish'n'Fips, so that's what we had, but I really do need to use the pork tonigiht.
