An orange in an apple orchard
Don’t think I’ve ever had yellowfin tuna before, but the combination of sales and coupon clipping made me decide to experiment. It was definitely a success.
Along with the fish, a Knorr side of Mexican rice and sauteed peppers, onions, chickpeas, and mushrooms probably aren’t a normal combination: so much as what I was in the mood for, lol.
Operation taco was a bit simple: given the lack of fresh lettuce or leftover sour cream.
Willow was greatly displeased that I made something with fish but didn’t share any.
When I made extra onigiri, I had planned to save some rather than eating them all. Instead it became a rather large lunch.
Here Are The Meals That Best Represent Each State In America, According To Locals
For the places I’ve called home and neighboring states, I’d say this sounds about right. For the rest it sounds like reasons to gain a few pounds 😂.

That reminds me: don’t think I’ve ever actually tasted Tang, nor have I ever really felt the need drink that stuff.
Over the years though, I’ve generally come to the conclusion that astronauts don’t get the gift of good food. I’d like to think that life for the ISS crew sucks less than shuttle and Apollo crews suffered in terms of food stuffs but I’m pretty sure the day when space food is really great food rather than just the best we can do, is still quite far off.
The 20th century kind of brought a lot of advancements to storing, packing, and preserving food. But some problems remain unsolved, lol.
Recurring problems: when your brain tells you not to make coffee after dark.
Is there such a thing as too much coffee? I doubt it.
There are weekends where my coffee consumption approximates my weekday consumption, and there are weekends where I hardly down a drop of coffee. :/.
Explaining to dogs that refried beans are not for them is bound to never go well. Ending with “If I gave you this: you would fart, and we would all die”, is probably not the best idea either.
I refuse to disclose how many cheese doodles the dogs conned me out of.
Thus I came up with an alternative that works when I do dishes after dinner rather than before 😀.
You can bet that more than a few tatters found their way down the treat hole of some hungry doggos.
