What Have You Been Eating?

To go along with the last movie, telly show, song threads I thought it might be amusing to poke my nosy nose into your dinner.

This evening we had two veggie burgers on two slices of plain bread toasted covered in baked beans (lazy day, lazy meal).

Just toasted half a cinnamon raisin bagel.  Might get some green grapes.

I ate a mandarin and pretzels, because I couldn't find anything to eat.

"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you’ll be able to project it on a 20’ by 40’ screen with perfect quality. I think it’s the director’s prerogative, not the studio’s to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

Pancakes.  In 20 minutes, the answer will be a salad.

I gotta vent.

My wife is an excellent cook. She's constantly mastering new skills and 99% of what she makes is delicious.

But sometimes I just want a sandwich. Two slices of whitebread, bologna, and individiaully wrapped yellow cheese slice.

Not only do we not have these ingridients, when she makes a sandwhich it's on freshbaked bread, with sliced turkey, a homemade aloe spread and heirloom tomatoes. Delicious, appreciated, but sometimes a dude just wants a whitebread sandwich.

Case in point, I'm sick so she asks me what I want for dinner. I ask for tomato soup and a grilled cheese... comfort food from my youth.

I get home from work and she serves up a focacia-bread cheese-spread fingersandwich thing, and a tomato/beet bisque substance. All wonderful and delicious, but just not the same.

Ive never said nothing, because how does one address the problem "honey, you work too hard and are to exceptional at your household duty." And she's so (rightfully) proud of her work, I don't want to hurt her feelings.

Boost, I don't feel that sorry for you.  Do you ever cook things on your own?  That may be your only hope.

But, yeah, I get ya.  Sometimes a dudes got to have a white bread sandwich.

Just had a footlong oven roasted chicken sandwich on Italian herbs & cheese bread with the works from Subway, along with a fresh pot of Godiva coffee. As Bill & Ted would say, "Excellent."

Every 27th customer will get a ball-peen hammer, free!

 I cook breakfast on weekends, but dinner is the wife's job (and she hands out the jobs).

The only option is to have my wife cook dinner, then go make my own... which would also result in sleeping on the couch.

And I don't expect to be felt sorry for. That's the problem: that the problem is so unproblematic, I have no skills to deal with it .

And to the OP:
Just had a bowl of leftover herb mashed potatoes and spinach and a cup of green tea.

I had some vegetable soup and some white bread.  Couldn't be bothered to cook a proper meal.  Besides, I sometimes like having a light dinner and snacking later on.

I remember when I was an avid bodybuilder and ate six or seven meals a day.

Looking back with nostalgia it was great.

In reality I seem to recall loathing steamed fish and poached chicken breast (my staples at the time) and hating having to pee constantly from drinking 124 oz of water a day.

I eat pizza and drink soda much more than I should.

Fortunately, I have a hyper-metabolism so I am rather thin and never put on any significant amount of weight at all.  Secretly I fear that when I'm old it may finally catch up with me and I'll become a diabetic tub, but so far there's no sign of that.

Last night it was Lasagna and I'm currently mixing Pizza dough.

About to go down to the fantastic Mexican place a block away and get a couple of Super Tacos (yes, they're called Super Tacos on the menu).  Fuck yeah.

After all that preparation I put the Pizzas uncooked in the freezer for later and had four crackers instead.

Stir fried vegetables, rice and peas.

A lot of prep, a dramatic flurry of cooking and a modest bowl of niceness.

Fake bologna sandwich sammich.

Note that the sammich was real, it was the bologna that was fake.
