Two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun.

OK, so now try to get that outta your head for the rest of the day......

Hahahahahahaha




(you sang it in your head as you read it, didn't you?)

Yes, I absolutely sang it.  Funny story about that song.  Some years ago I went to a local restaurant for a reuben sandwich.  I asked if their rye bread had caraway in it. "No".  I said that if it is caraway, I will not eat it. Sandiwch came, and I could see the caraway right away.  And, I could smell it.  I told the server.  She said, she'd take it back to "the chef".  She came back, and said "The chef says that it's sesame".  So, I started singing Two all beef etc. and suggested the chef should go down the street to McD's and check out what sesame looks like.  That was a REALLY experienced chef, right????

Pork & Sauerkraut with spaetzle!

Jeanie and her sister stopped by to let us know her house sold after 9 days on the market ~ so they got invited to supper and everyone enjoyed the meal.

Years ago I had a student who was from the east coast. She was telling me about silver floss. I had never heard of it before. A few months later I got a box and in it....4 cans of silver floss.  It’s not usually available in Arizona but it was good.

She paid $7.99 a Lb of ground round....80 / 20 . It was delicious, and she added leftover rigatoni macaroni to the sauce.

She only used 1/2 the meat for the meatballs, and so I mixed the other 1/2 into Italian fried meatballs. Actually, I baked them in the oven. I'm munching on them now as finger food. hahahahaha

Absolutely gorgeous weather this week end: in the 70's, with low humidity. It is so nice out. The windows are open! Finally!

I will probably go sit outside for a while. And perhaps a walk or two..

I am not going anywhere today. I really do not travel on holidays. Also, with Covid, my city has one of the highest rates of 12%, in the state. It is kind of frightening.
The beach should have been closed all summer. That is why the rates are so high.

Many people I know are going about their business.. regular shopping, at any time, going out to eat,... I am a lot more cautious.. early morning, only for groceries... and no growing in regular stores.. although I really miss going to The Christmas Tree Shop, Walmart, Bed Bath & Beyond, Kohls.. I am ordering up a storm.. I prefer to get things prepacked in plastic, instead of something which someone man handled... sigh..

Am I being overly cautious??  am I being paranoid?  I do not know... but... just venting..

I am going to splurge this week end. Yesterday, I went to the butchers. I picked up a really nice sirloin strip steak. Yum... expensive, but so good. It is an Angus steak.. that is all the butcher sells, along with Bell and Evans chicken.

Going to cook the steak on my tiny tabletop George Foreman Grill. Just plain... nothing added. Do not want to detract from the meatiness of the beef. Of course, Salt and Pepper. I have a spaghetti squash which needs to be cooked. That will go in the oven... probably toaster/convection one, if it fits.

I will have this for 2 days. And a salad the other day of the weekend.

I will wait till Tuesday to dump it and keep it frozen till then. Nothing worse than ripe chicken in the trash. I didn't have trouble with anything except the ginger. They say it is good for stomachs but not mine - it feels like it is on fire. I did make some Hawaiian rice with pineapple, ham, coconut, green onions that was good. No more sale chicken for me unless I know the brand.
It is 8pm and still 93 outside. I tried to use the pool but had to leave because there were too many bees around looking for water. I am allergic to bee stings. We have the thermostat set at 79 but it isn't getting any cooler than 80 inside so it has been going most of the day and probably will be on all night. We can't sleep when it is too hot. It was even in the 90's at the beach. They had news footage. No one was wearing masks nor were they social distancing. It was impossible.

OMG....Break out the pepto bismol! You poor things.
I would suggest make a pot of chicken soup to clean you poor things out.
