vanillafluffyOn the way home from work last night, I stopped by W*M and picked up a few things, including a pound of lean ground beef. Feeling quite pleased by today's achievements, I was inspired to throw together a pot of something chili-ish. One vidalia onion, slightly scorched sauteed to translucence in olive oil, which joined a can of chunky tomato-garlic tomato sauce, two cans of red kidney beans (one dark, one light) while I browned and drained the beef. Threw in some spices---mostly pepper---presto! It's simmering in my Dutch oven, so I'll have heat and eat food for a few days. Go, me!
In my excavations, I reclaimed my giant red insulated mug. I made up some iced tea, and am enjoying a sugar-free alternative to diet cola. (46 pounds of cans? To say nothing of umpteen 2-liter bottles? Frightening!) Maybe I'll start carrying it to work with me, and try to ween myself from caffiene again. =(
I may pick up a pint of milk tomorrow so I can make cornbread to go with the leftover chili. Mmm, cornbread! Meanwhile, I have scads of pasta...shells or corkscrews? Decisions, decisions!
