I LOVE French onion soup. I used to make it but nobody in the house likes
it and it's too much work for one bowl. I also haven't seen it listed at
any of the restaurants we dine at. So I was happy to find some at Safeway
in the frozen section. Two servings per box. It comes formed in a shape
that is meant for a proper baked soup bowl which I do not have. So I put it
in a big coffee mug. I heated it in the microwave but it said if you do
this the cheese would all melt into the soup. Not a problem because the way
I used to make mine was like this. I didn't heat it in the oven. It did
say you could put some more cheese on top which I did. I used Asiago
because I had no Gruyere. It's very good! Very rich.

Also picked up a little package of steamed baby beets. I cut them up and
mixed them with Feta, walnuts and black pepper. Nobody else in the house
like beets either!

Also had a few bites of leftover baked beans. Yum!

a bit too much cheese for one meal but man it sure sounds good, Lee

There wasn't a lot of cheese in it. Just a few scrapes of a peeler for the
Asiago and about 2 Tablespoons of Feta, if that.

i might be able to handle that, i have to monitor cheese closely or its a
migraine, otherwise it really sounds good to me, Lee

Whenever Julie posts about a meal that she REALLY liked, it makes me happy.

Ohhhhhh. Luckily cheese doesn't have that effect on me. I tend to get
migraines at that time of the month. Or if I take GERD meds.

I saw a little snip on a science show the other day about botox and
migranes, seemed it helped prevent them didn't take much notice of it at
the time. Might be worth a google :-)

I'm thinking an omelet with ham and mushroom. I spent 5 hours at a
hospital with my son's girlfriend, sitting in a hard chair and not a
scrap of food since 7 am until 3pm. Interesting to hear the
conversations from the different cubicles. It seems you don't ask anyone
if they have voided or used their bowels anymore. Its "can you wee in
this container for me?" or "have you done a poo today?" I heard more
poo, wee stories today than I have since my kids were babies. The old
dear in the next cubicle obviously had dementia. About every 3 minutes
she would call out "yoohoo! nurse! I need to wee, dear". The nurse would
go in and say you have a catheter in and it is working nicely... The
fun began when the nurse went on lunch break and two other women who
didn't even look like nurses took over. The little voice called out
"nurse! I need a pan dear!" One nurse decided she couldn't get the pan
under her (while my son's GF and myself were wondering when she would
realise the woman was catheterised..) so she calls for help and they
drag in a commode chair. Then came the moment of enlightenment I
think the old lady had a lucid moment at one point because after calling
out to the nurse because she needed to wee (and not getting an immediate
answer) she called out that she needed to vomit Three nurses and a
little old lady chuckle later.... Oh, and out of one cubicle I heard
a nurse say to the guy in there, "can you tell me why you are breathing
so fast?". I thought ok, isn't that the medical staff's job to find that
out? He had swollen feet, chest pains and a funny cough. I suppose self
diagnosis was always on the cards. So, that's why I don't want to cook
tonight.... Actually a can of baked beans is looking good. I arrived
home at 3 just as one son was heading out the door to work and I found 5
empty tuna cans on the bench so I'm guessing I am not having tuna.

Angela had an omelet earlier today. It was actually a frozen one. I have
to buy them like that because she can't eat a dozen eggs before they go bad.
Plus she won't cook eggs herself. This one had cheese in it. She has
another one with ham.

Speaking of frozen. I just went looking for a tide me over until dinner
and found one last flavoured low carb yoghurt in the back of the fridge.
But it was frozen... I stuck it in the micro at 30% for 2 minutes and it
was still frozen so I put it in for 1 minute on 50% and it turned to
liquid, very disappointing The whole food thing is turning out bad
this afternoon, lol. I planned to give the boys the last of the pork
chops (only enough for two). Jasmine with her low muscle tone and
tendency to gag can't eat meats like steak or pork only chicken, minced
meats etc. So I knew had a few cocktail franks in the fridge and that
made me happy that dinner was sorted and I would be having the omelet.
When I came home I not only saw the empty tuna cans but my 16 year old
son and my ex husband happily munching on the franks! So now I have to
pull a rabbit out of the hat for her dinner

At this rate it looks likes something on toast But that's ok, she did
cooking at school today and they usually cook a main meal for that.

No yogurt here either. I found three in the fridge that expired on June 22.
Also a container of artichoke dip and a package of bologna which all oddly
expired on that same date.

julie that yougurt is fine, as long as the package isn't opened i swear
yogurt will last forever, Lee

I was happy to find in the frozen section at Safeway. Two servings per box. It became a form of which is intended to correct is baked with a bowl of soup that I did not. So I put in a great cup of coffee. I warmed in the microwave, but said that if you do so that the cheese would melt all the cooking. Not a problem, because the way I used to do that was mine. I do not heat in oven. He said he could not put more cheese on top of what I did. I used Asiago because I had Gruyere. It very good! Very rich.
