I’ve used quite a bit of the leftover rice that I made last week…

so far I’ve made a few things with it… combined some of it with shredded Brussels sprouts; mixed it with shrimp and egg for a lovely fried rice; and combined it with meatballs…

but I am getting a little tired of it, particularly as rice isn’t one of my favourites, lol… I would much rather have potatoes…

but I do love rice pudding;-)… so I did some research and then made some…

had some for breakfast… it was delicious…

was talking with someone recently about the difficulty of cooking for one…

cooking for one is definitely different and certainly takes more thought, preparation and effort… really easy to have a bowl of popcorn instead…

my technique is to make enough for two meals and then have leftovers for lunch or supper the next day…

I’ve been trying to think about what I will have in the evening and take whatever I’ve decided on out for supper in the morning before leaving for the office…

the plan for tonight was to cook a couple of herb and garlic sausages and pick up a bun to put one of them in…

stopped at the bakery but they didn’t have a single stick of bread left… great for them, but not so good for me, lol…

then it was off to the grocery store to pick up a few buns… also found a nice steak, some chicken and a bit of hamburger…

came home, cooked the sausages, added Smak Dab mustard, Miracle Whip, grated onion and lettuce to a whole wheat bun… it was delicious…

and I have enough to make another bun for my lunch…

dinner…

for my dinner tonight I had leftover salt and pepper chicken wings, cactus cut potatoes and Caesar salad… it was quite yummy…

they were the remainder of my dinner last night… I went out with a lovely young friend who I hadn’t seen in ages… we had a great visit, got caught up on our families and I got to show her the new baby (car, I’m talking about!)…

when I go out now, I often order enough to have as leftovers the next day… this was particularly good tonight as I always find Friday a night when I really don’t want to have to cook dinner…

fish in the winter condo…

sitting here with only one light on and can’t see the fish in the tank, but earlier I made sure to feed them… there are 13 of them and they are fairly big, so I want to be sure they get enough to eat… there are also a few water hyacinth plants in the tank, but they won’t last for very long in the house… they do best outside in the heat…
