![]() Found a really nice boneless leg of lamb at Costco today, decent price. Made a nice rosemary/garlic rub, salt, pepper etc. It's cooking now, and smells wonderful. I will have a large salad with it. Mmmmmmm, I love lamb. DH doesn't like it, so will be able to use it up in many different ways for myself and my dog. My dog is salivating too, on high alert. :-) Cheri |

So normally I would just drop her off. But being that it is the first week of the year and things change, I want to be there tonight. So I have made a sandwich on honey whole wheat bread from Costco. Kirkland brand turkey on it with some Smart Balance Light, a thinly sliced plum tomato and some bits of lettuce that I pulled from Angela's salad bowl. She is having some leftover chicken, a sweet potato and a green salad. I offered to make something for husband but he declined. So he will be on his own. There is a sandwich in there, plenty of raw fruits and veg, hummus, yogurt, cheese, a bit of leftover fried rice and 3 little Chimichangas. Not sure what we will have tomorrow. We'll be going to Winco. The past few weeks we have found super good deals on pre-made sandwiches that were going to expire the following day. So I might just pick up sandwiches for Angela and husband. Depends on how the dance classes go really. There is some confusion about one class and if things go the way they say they will (I still need to talk to the teacher), then Angela will be dropping that class. If she does, we will go shopping then come home and eat. If she takes the class, we won't get out of there until 6:30. In that case we will likely go out to eat before we shop. Otherwise we will just be too hungry and that won't be good. I plan to make a big pot of chili for myself after my husband leaves. He will actually eat my chili and I don't want him to because it would be bad for his gout. Angela used to like chili but then she just went off of it and now won't touch the stuff. Angela's favorite meal right now is chicken and a sweet potato. So I plan to just buy a lot of that for her, cook it up and have her eat the leftovers. Then if she wants something else she can have a sandwich. Then I'll figure something else out for the next week. My goal for the time being is to eat as cheaply as possible. This is working for me but not really for the other two. Of course I guess if I wanted to go really cheap it would be Ramen but I hope it never comes to that. Beans and veg will do quite well. |

The only thing I don't like about TJ's is...there's so much to look through, and so much I want to buy, that I have to stop myself from buying some of the goodies. :-) Cheri |

They were putting what appeared to be a huge one into the mall there. They were still in the "putting in" phase when we left. I have never lived near one. We have a little one in Lynnwood and another little one in Everett but I don't buy enough there to warrant going that distance. |

Angela does like this very expensive soup imported from Italy. I did some research, bought all of the ingredients and was very proud of myself for recreating the soup. Tastes just like the jarred soup. Well... Guess who wouldn't eat it? Yep. Said it was yucky. Once in a great while I can get her to eat some plain tomato soup. I have not tried to make tomato soup. I know she would not like it. I used to make tomato and barley soup. I love it but it used to raise my BG too high. I recently bought some barley to try again. But I'm sure she won't like it. I like to clean out the fridge and make soup. But I'm the only one who likes it. ![]() |
