Ditto.
Tonight's menu is ham, baked sweet potatoes, and lima beans though I suspect I'll have to make another green vegetable for the other 3 people in my household. Also, homemade oatmeal raisin cookies for dessert.
Squidleybits got schwarma for herself, pepperoni pizza for the kids and and XL donair for me.

Discovered a restaurant near here that has a lunch special of soup and two sushi rolls for $8. Tried it out and it's pretty good sushi, with cheerful and attentive staff. I will definitely be going back.
Thinly sliced flank steak that was so tender that you could cut it with a fork.
Chicken, kale, mushrooms, noodles. Simple meal, but good. Woulda liked the skin to be spicier, but I shoulda thought of that when I was cooking it. This is what finals do to me, they make me forget how I like my food!

Went out for dinner yesterday. Me and my parents. Decided to go back to that BBQ restaurant where I had the best burger of my life.
What we had:
Mozzarella sticks and chipotle mayonnaise.
Seared tuna, oven potato, steamed vegetables and dip.
Pulled pork, coleslaw, corn and bread.
Smoked bacon burger and fries.
Yummy.

Your mozzarella sticks are wrapped in Honolulu Tribune paper. LOL
A really old one, no less. I really hope this is just a theme of the restaurant and they're reprinting old newspaper from around the world.
It's not a real paper. It's just liners restaurants use for baskets and such. I looked it up since that newspaper doesn't exist currently.
TURKEY POT PIE MOTHA FUCKERS! I am gonna make this at least TEN TIMES during this holiday season.
For tonight's dinner I am making a roast chicken seasoned with herbes de provence, a side dish of baked sweet potatoes, and a garden salad.
Spaghetti and Salad from Angelos. Came with garlic bread, so I mades myself a spaghetti sammich!

No pictures, because I so hungry I gobbled it up, but Trader Joe's has something they call a "soft pretzel stick" but it's really more like a pretzel sandwitch roll. Which is exactly what I made from it. Last time I got one I put some sausage on it. This time it was tuna salad with some unripened brie cheese. (Oh, and the tuna was packed in olive oil, which I brushed on the pretzel roll before toasting it in the oven. Yum.) Both were excellent, and I'm so glad I've got one more waiting for whatever I can dream up.
OK, here's what you do... you want put a light coating of water on the pretzel bread, then sprinkle a small amount of salt on it. Then you bake the thing until it's crunchy. I'm told this is how they make pretzels in Bavaria.

Sounds tasty, but I'm not that into crunch pretzels. It got enough crunch to it just toasting it in the oven, and it was already salty enough for my tastes.
I was hoping to make shredded chicken for enchiladas, but I just looked at the time and that's not going to happen. So it'll probably be grilled steaks with corn and salad.
Maybe I was too subtle. I was jokingly suggesting you should turn your deliciously soft bread into a terrible, hard pretzel stick

Here's what I did with my remaining soft pretzel bun:
Teriyaki chicken with unripened brie cheese. The chicken was premade from Trader Joe's, but I made up a quick sauce for it with green onions, garlic, butter, grape seed oil, ginger, red pepper flakes, black pepper, soy sauce, lime juice and honey. Turned out really tasty.
