Crazy Weekend, but good food

The weekend for work was a bit disjointed (all kinds of crazy hours, at crazy times), but my hubby didn't let me down in the food department.

Friday night fare was a gourmet sandwich (delicious) with chips, ho ho's, milk, and chocolate milk. There was also a good salad with kalmetta olives and goat cheese. Yum yum. Yes, I know,it sounds like a 12 year olds lunch with a twist, but hey, sometimes you just have to be 12 again.

Saturday night I was home. We had some yummy porkchops that were grilled perfectly.

Sunday night was an extra special treat. I had worked Sunday afternoon at our Grad party and then had to come back to work my regular shift that night. Yep, made for a long day. Anyway, it ended up being extra nice because Bill brought the girls down to deliver dinner. Everyone got to see them while they just hung out wide eyed at all the fuss.

Another fabulous weekend brought to you by my hubby.

Almost illegal?

Ok, the almost illegal part of my dinner was a creme brulee which he actually sent the torch with so that I could carmelize the top just prior to eating. Since I didn't get to leave my bedside for the second part of my meal I couldn't use it, but it was sweet none the less.

He also sent me with Halloween pez.

Yummy and interesting but so far not illegal

Tonight I was forewarned that my dinner was very bizarre and possibly illegal which got me to wondering, but hey, it's all good.

I usually eat my dinner in two phases (hey, I'm here for 12 hours people), the first part is the hot food with the milk, and the second phase (about 3:00 to 4:00 in the morning is the cold phase.) Anyway, tonight the warm phase consisted of what I would describe as a roast cut like a steak. Whatever it's really called, it was delicious. Nice and tender and juicy. It was served over spaetzle noodles. So far nothing illegal. I guess I'll have to wait for the cold food to start breaking the law.

Long over due kudos to hubby

Last weekend I'm sad to say I don't remember everything that was in my dinner, but I do know there was some homemade stroganoff. Delicious stuff. The only criticism if I had to make one, is that it needed a tad more sauce. Yum, yum, yum.

Last night dinner featured fish, pasta, salad, and the dessert of 12 year olds (oreos and chocolate milk.) The fish was marvalously prepared, however much to the chagrin of the chef the fish itself was flavorless. The only way to avoid this would be to breed it himself I guess. I never got to eat the salad because I was sent on transport, but that's where the cookies and milk came in handy. I had them in the ambulance on the way to pick up the little peanut, followed by a quick nap.

Tonights fare was comprised of stuffed pasta shells (delicious, but a few too many - two would be about right), salad, a plum, chocolate and regular milk, but sadly no oreos.

What will tomorrows dinner bring? Hmmmmm.

Labor day weekend or the Spanish Revolution?

Apparently we've had a revolution tonight. Dinner was soft tacos with chips, salsa, and guacamole. However, just to prove we can do it however we like, there was a very American berry pie thrown in for good measure. Different type of meal that I never suspected I would get in my lunch box, but surprisingly it really worked.

On another note, the creative use of the foil divider in the lunch box (bottom half with ice and cold food, top half with heat pack and hot food) is really working. I like it.

Thanks again for the fabuloso el dinnero. That would be Spanish Billese for "Thanks for the great dinner."
