I was hungry, so went into the kitchen for a salad

an hour and a half later, there was a big pot of split pea soup on the stove, and creamed chicken w/Italian seasoning and grated parmesan cheese to go over egg noodles or rice later.

So it's going to be hard to justify spending $20 to have Mexican food delivered, eh?

I went to the kitchen to make a bowl of oatmeal & ended up with pizza dough rolled out into 8 mini-pizzas, a pot of minestrone soup, & potato salad.

I would still order the Mexican food, though.

Been making lots and lots of Mexican food and am, at this very second, enjoying a Mexican pastry whose name I forget.

2 tex-mex cheese enchiladas, beans, rice, a taco, quacamole, chicken flautas, and lots of salsa & queso.

Even better, it was enough for 2 meals.
