A Home Cooked Meal

 Today was the first day I had cooked since Tuesday! I don't even remember what we ate but I know that two days we had pizza that Vince picked up and brought home. The day we went to the doctor - Wednesday, we ate at Panda Express. Friday we went to the ER and got breakfast out. The rest of the time I think Vince ate leftover pizza. I ate toast and jam one night, turkey and pepperoni and cheese one night. I've tried to eat enough yogurt since I'm taking two antibiotics. 

Yesterday, I guess Vince was getting tired of fast food, and he asked if I could find a jar of canned beans and sausage. Oh, yes, I could find that. He said he would help me cook but I knew I could do it if he would help with clean up.

I made a pot of rice.


I ground wheat and cornmeal to make cornbread.


Here it is with the grains ground.


Then I made coleslaw!

The jar of beans and sausage was opened, heated up and dinner was served!


I feel like I'm almost back to normal . . just being very protective of a sore finger. My plan for tomorrow is to can more beans, make whole wheat tortillas, fix chicken tacos with corn relish, open a jar of black beans - a very quick meal with minimal mess to clean up.

When I'm not cooking much, I do miss it but I'm very thankful Vince was ok with me not cooking for a few days.
