More soup

We have a soup problem, I think.  Back on solid food next time, I promise.
Over the weekend I dragged Chris through Williams-Sonoma because I had a gift certificate and I basically spent it on all food.  The most exciting thing was Sarabeth’s strawberry raspberry preserves, which I have of course been eating on bread like [...]

Lentil soup

I’ve been buying $2 cans of lentil soup at Trader Joe’s to eat for lunch every day.  Yes, I eat the same thing every day.  Well, almost every day.  Sometimes I add a side, usually a piece of bread and some butter, but for the most part, it’s lentil soup for me.  That way I [...]

Second best

Well, I found it.  It’s not quite as good as this, but it’s very creamy and if I had my eyes closed I might think it was regular ice cream:

It’s way, way, way better than any other soy ice cream I’ve ever had, but not quite good enough to make me want to have four [...]

The best time of year

The Office is back!  The Office is back!  The Office is back!
All is right with the world.  And, I saw a guy throw a sandwich in a mail drop box this morning, so that was kind of cool.  It was a bacon, egg and cheese.
Which, conveniently enough, segues nicely into food.  For a “snack” today, [...]

It’s soup weather

Today I have been working at my desktop computer because my laptop power cord melted in a burst of sparks yesterday.  Well, not a burst, exactly, but at least one or two.  Enough to make me scream.  Doesn’t take much.
Has this happened to anyone else’s MacBook?  Because this is the second time it’s happened to [...]

Not so smart

I very intelligently decided to have a can of Trader Joe’s black bean soup for lunch today:

My Teen Degree did not appreciate this decision.
That book is Kim Lyons’ Your Body, Your Life.  You know, she’s the trainer from The Biggest Loser?  I’m not reading it.  But it is rather thick and serves as the perfect [...]

Those buses are tricky

Last night for dinner I had a can of Trader Joe’s vegan black bean soup:

Of course, I then de-veganized it by adding cheese.  But I’m not a vegan, so that’s okay.  I also added some salsa, avocado and a little corn, but honestly, this is good soup.  I was impressed.  It was really filling, too.
Then [...]

The gouda is out to get me

I could not have screwed my dinner up more if I possibly tried. First, I was trying to make a quesadilla. So I grate some cheddar on a tortilla, throw a little gouda on there for kicks, sprinkle on some cumin, chili powder, etc. and toss it in a pan. Then I [...]

Settled!

After waiting around all day, my case finally got settled and we were dismissed, which means I won’t get called again for about eight years. Thank god.
Ironically enough, when I got home there was a summons in the mail for Chris. Ha.
I had a random day of eating. Started with a cup [...]
