Sausage

Saw these bras at the Cheese Shop, while I was still in recovery mode. So I avoided buying them, until I thought, hey I can handle a cased sausage now. These were quite good and am happy I bought them.

Taco Salad

Extra beans, for more fiber. Good things.

Kimchi and Ham Steak Fried Rice

Part of me though, hey I should pull a ham out of the freezer, the other part thought, that is a lot of commitment to ham right now. So I picked up some ham steaks and went from there. Made it before, will make it again.

Thai-Style Chicken and Sweet Potato Curry

Vaguely followed the recipe, wanted to add more curry paste, but didn’t have it. I did add sambal olek to mine, which was a nice flavor booster.

Glazed Salmon

Put off from a bit before, defrosted the salmon, cooked it and went forward. Good meal. Served with a salad.

Baked Macaroni and Cheese with Sausage and Peppers

While we had planned to stay at the Matta’s which means we usually run behind on the weekend, and Shannon has to take off time way in advance. So I used the extra time on the Monday to take the time to make this meal, as it would normally be a weekend meal. But it came together well. I would’ve cooked the noodles a bit less, since they were a wee bit over cooked in the dish (maybe 9 minutes instead of 10). Still good and a nice mixture.

I ordered my new office chair (Steelcase Series 2) and it had been sitting in a box upstairs because I assumed it would be challenging to put together (since June 6th). This past Monday, I ended up unpacking it and we moved the pieces downstairs and put it together.

It was shockingly easy to put together. So much so that I thought I had messed it up. I’ve been using it this week and it’s been a bit of an adjustment as I’ve been sitting on my current chair for at least a 14 years or so. I’ve never been a big fan of the adjustable arms rests, I kind of like them fixed, but so far it’s working out. I’ve been sitting up a bit straighter. So far so good

I went to the Downtown Farmers Market for the first time this year. It was nice to get up early, walk around and see how things are going down there. There has been quite a bit of turnover. I did get an arepa, which I had been missing quite a bit along with some other breakfast things. I brought some veggies to bring home along with some tarts and hand pies for lunch. I showed off my scar a bit, but didn’t repeat the story.
