Change of plans. Hamburgers on the grill. I eat red meat about twice a month, but when I do it is usually steak, and maybe 4 ounces. If I have to only eat a little of something I enjoy, it's generally not going to be ground beef. Ah, well, today isn't that day. Looks like we have an English cucumber and a couple heads of romaine lettuce up for slaughter before they go bad. The wife went with me to the store, but managed to miss out on buying a tomato for the burgers. I'm not disappointed; I can't even eat them anyway. We bought buns, which I will also likely forgo.

I too am indifferent about meat. I will eat it but not as often as friend wife seems to select for dinner.
I am big on vegetables, mostly raw salads for most of them. When not on a veggie kick, fruits and nuts are the go to choice.

My downfall is bread, staff of life some say.  I want French, Italian, Turkish types. American soft white bread has not been in my house for years. I cannot always find good crusty breads in the markets, so I bake my own.  Took me a while to learn some of the tricks about bread making. Bread baking is as much art as it is science. I understand some of the science but the art part, I have yet to perfect.

I bought some t-bone steaks at a local store today. They looked pretty good, and were reasonably priced. I bought mushrooms and asparagus at CostCo yesterday. Grilled the steaks, sauteed the mushrooms, and the wife cooked the asparagus. Best dinner in a while! Yummay!

when i worked a tabe in the big city farmers market, there was an artisan bakery next door. they cosed at 5 but had to keep the shelves full or people would sto p buying the bread
so at the end of the day i would get one or two of those thirty dozen egg boxes full of fresh european french, sourdough, itaian,  and getman style breads. great stuff. i would take it to meeting the next day.


plus i would get the last pizzas from the other lace and either eat tjem or give tjem to the homeless people

What's for dinner is a fistful of dollars and nothing worth buying.

Main course today will be bacon-wrapped scallops. Will have to make some serious vegetation to counter that saturated fat overload. I'm thinking broccoli. Broccoli good!
