I had KFC delivered today and it's good.

I have overordered ingredients this week (from the farmers market and a meal kit) so I made brussels sprouts with chorizo and potato soup for dinner. They were both good!

Y'all, my coworker said something today "from the internet" that I just read on tumblr. Let me never tell her I am also on tumblr.

I made butternut squash Alfredo sauce yesterday and had the leftovers on fettuccine for dinner tonight. Making it yesterday was a bit fussy, but today it was just reheat and pour on pasta.

Ended up with tuna melts.

I made honey mustard frozen-to-cooked salmon in the oven, and we ate it over salad. Easiest prep clean-up in a while, man. It was pretty good, too. The fish doesn't come out the prettiest ever, but the point is, I forgot to thaw it, so...

I did go with grilled cheese (gouda and provolone) with that Autumnal Harvest soup, which is REALLY good.

We had the rest of our sandwiches from last night, and I make a quick pink sauce to go with a little bit of pasta on the side.

I just put smoked gouda on my grocery list, so I can make these sandwiches, which sound amazing.

I've had some roasted cauliflower sandwiches and they are, indeed, delicious.

I've become a bit dependent on Whole Foods to augment my cooking rotation, since everybody eats something different.

They have these marinated salmon steaks that are smallish, and I get the lemon dill one at least once a week for JZ. I season it up a little and run it under the broiler and then serve it on greens and she's very happy about that.

And I've also been getting things like their Beet/Kale salad and using that as a side on various dishes.

Matilda usually gets either something with pasta (just red sauce and parm) or rice (chicken curry, or black beans). And there's usually enough to give her leftovers the next day for lunch.

Having a couple of prepared sides around (JZ also likes Dolma) and a few easy protein hits (egg or tuna salad) that I can offer up helps assemble plates.

As for myself, probably half of my diet in a week is from either eggs, or skinless chicken thighs (which I've learned to tart up in a variety of ways). Highly recommend TJs Shawarma Chicken Thighs because 12 minutes under a broiler and they are done and delicious.

I had apricot-glazed salmon, butternut squash & cabbage, and pearl couscous for dinner. And I'm about to have some chocolate cake.
