🍴: Mon – leftover pork tenderloin and Hampton-made baked Rancho Gordos, salad Tues – Twisted Pine with a Seagull castmate. Kady came to Flat 493 to review things with Hampton and took him downtown before I got off work since he (finally) had a production meeting before our rehearsal. She and I then got a…
-
🍴: Mon – rehearsal and dance class were both cancelled due to the threat of ice, so instead of random dinners, we bumped up a meal planned for later in the week. Good thing, bc this crunchy brown butter carrot gratin did take a while. Totally worth it, served with pork tenderloin, mash, and peas.…
-
🍴: Mon – we got home from PA last week to a leaking kitchen faucet (luckily only when turned on; it wasn’t running for three days) and an oven igniter that finally decided to crap all the way out. With him having rehearsal and me not being called for rehearsal, but having dance class, he…

🍴: Mon – rehearsal after dance class = forgettable leftover for a late dinner Tues – Arby’s in the car on the way to PA Wed – Davis family dinner, traditional Thanksgiving style. I did not feel like coming up with something the kids would eat, so decided on this salad to use up sweet…

-
🍴: Mon – grilled calamari and pan-roasted potatoes with leftover miso-pistachio romesco, salad Tues – grilled chicken thighs with roasted sweet potatoes and lemony green beans. This may be my new favorite way to deal with the small potatoes we get from TJ’s. Wed – NY strip, roasted butternut squash with salsa macha and mimolette…

Another two weeks another “where the heck did those two weeks go?”. It’s been a bit of a blur as I dealt with some back and stomach issues. You know, after I tweaked my knee and got the cold from heck not too long ago. I’m starting to believe I’m related to the biblical Samson…
