Sausage

While I was able to get my Crooked Gap brats this week, not in time for this dinner. Still skinless, which is what my wife prefers, me too, and should be easier to digest, in general. So they were ok.

Beef Burgers

Bit of Momofuku salt, crooked gap beef. Good things.

Taco Salad

So this was a mixed experience. I made things more simple, because of recent events. But even so with the beans and the chips they ended up being…unpleasant later on. Spice as well. So I’m gong to claim I’ve learned my lesson, but somehow I doubt it.

Pizza (sourdough crust, for real this time)

I left the pizza dough out a bit of the down to allow it to grow a bit. and it did, to some extent, but not to the same extent that my yeasted version would go. It made it ok to work with, but I wasn’t as much as I expected. So it was a bit smaller than I would make. To make a concession I used tomato sauce instead of pureeing whole canned tomatoes, to avoid the seeds. And this mostly worked out. However, I added to much sauce and to much cheese, which overloaded everything. Even so it was a good attempt.

Thai Style Chicken and Sweet Potatoes

Delayed a bit.

Spicy Chili Coconut Shrimp Noodles

Less spicy, but easy to eat and digest, not a bad dinner.

I mowed the front and side yards on Friday, and then the backyard on Saturday. Friday I was fine, but tired, Saturday, with a Costco run, I was just exhausted by the end of the day. I fell asleep during the new South Park feature and after “making” dinner (purchased egg salad, where I effectively sliced cheese and setup plates for dinner). After we watched the Bob Marley movie, I just went to bed. I feel a lot better this morning, since sleeping from 9:30p to around 7a. So here we are, knowing I have limitations again, of not only food but the amount of effort I can put into a day.
