Yep, I caved and went to the grocery store this afternoon.
I couldn’t take it any longer. My fridge was starting to look very sad.
awww… much better. 🙂
Truth is, I was bored and grocery shopping is one of my favorite activities in the world. Why wait one more day when i could have all the fun tonight?
A full fridge makes me happy. 🙂
For a week that flew by, this afternoon seemed to move at snails pace. I was starting to believe the clock was never going to hit 5:00! Why are Friday afternoons so slow?
I had some Fritos and Salsa to help pass the time around 3:00.
I returned from the grocery store after work full of ideas for dinner. Coconut Shrimp? Buffalo Tempeh? Salad? Lasagna? I now had the ingredients to make it all! 🙂
In the end I decided on grilled italian chicken sausages with rutabaga fries.
The italian sausage was served on a piece of pumpernickel toast with spinach, saurkraut, ketchup and spicy mustard.
The pumpernickel was a nice addition to the sausage and saurkraut. The combination was very reuben-esque. 🙂
Rutabaga fries. Nom nom nom
Pickle 🙂
It was a dinner Derek was happy to enjoy as well. I think he appreciated the fully stocked fridge when he walked in the the door. 🙂
After dinner…
Me: “I’m going to bake some cookies.”
Derek: “Which kind?”
Me: “Chocolate Chip”
Derek: “No, I mean which brand?”
Me: “They don’t come from a brand silly, I want to make these from scratch.”
Derek: “Cookies from scratch? Really?”
HA! I guess someone didn’t grow up with homemade cookies? 😉
I was tweeting for a good cookie recipe the other day and Lindsay’s Chocolate Cafe Chocolate Chip Cookies struck me as a ‘must try.’ Rarely do I feel the urge to bake, but tonight I had that urge!
Instead of chocolate chips I broke up this little beauty that had been hiding in my cabinet for far too long.
I also opted for walnuts instead of pecans.
Fresh out of the oven.
The cookies were delicious. They were oaty, chewy and perfect with a scoop of ice cream. 🙂
Hello weekend!
While I was making cookies Derek was finishing off an entire bottle of wine by himself. Can you say bad week? I’m off to comfort him.
Happy Weekend Everyone!
Good Night!
