I hope you only have to have the excessive food restrictions for a short time, askye! If you tolerated the rotisserie chicken ok and you can eat cabbage (drinking cabbage juice is … not right) maybe try roasting a chicken on cabbage? It is shockingly delicious and super easy. Deb Perelman uses butter in her recipe but, if you can’t handle butter at the moment, you can use olive oil.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Roasting bone-in chicken thighs on whatever veggies you can eat (carrots?) also would be very tasty. I do that basically once a week in cooler months. You can add dried herbs for more flavor if that would work for you.
I might steal some of those suggestions for myself...
Today's Strands taught me that Ukiah (a town in N Calif) is haiku backwards. I wonder if that has any historical significance
A favorite meal when I was growing up was pork chops cooked with cabbage and potatoes and sometimes apples. I think you can get lean pork chops, I might try substituting turnips or parsnips or yucca or something for the potatoes, see how that comes out...IIRC it was basically browning the pork chops a bit, nestling the potatoes or whatever in amongst them so they could brown up nicely in the rendered fat and quarters or eighths of cabbage on top of everything to steam and cook down
Ooh, I might try both of those cabbagey, roasty things.
Chat with recruiter went well, and she's forwarding me as a candidate. We'll see. No matter what, though, it was something in a big ol' sea of nothing much, so that's pleasant, anyway.
I went to throw sheets in the dryer, pressed start, was baffled why it didn't start, then realized the door was still open. I closed the door, pressed start, was baffled why it didn't start, then realized I didn't set the timer. (Wonder of wonders, the dryer started once I both closed the door AND set the timer.) I feel like today should maybe be over, or at least the part of the day where I have to use my brain should be over.
Glad for the something, Jen! Good luck with the next steps
You figured out how to start the dryer, Tep, you've done enough. Hit the showers.
