What are you cooking/eating right now?
RE: What are you cooking/eating right now?
Threw together a batch of lentil soup:

- Sauté one minced onion, one stalk of chopped celery and two sliced carrots in olive oil.

- Add broth of choice (I used a 1-litre carton of beef broth).

- Add 1 cup of green lentils.

- Season. I used a bit of celery salt, a lot of black pepper, a bit of kosher salt, dried parsley, and oregano.

- Simmer till lentils are cooked.

Had Digiorno pizza for dinner. Macerating some candied and dried fruit in dark rum for another fruitcake.

For dinner I just had: a quarter pound of tri tip steak sautéed in olive oil = 161 calories; 100 g of tiny new potatoes rolled in olive oil & baked = 125 calories;  steamed asparagus = 20 calories; 3 fl oz of red wine = 73 calories; on piece of Mikawaya Mochi Mango Ice Cream dessert = 100 calories .. for a grand total of 479 calories.  That completes my consumption of calories for the day with an overall total of 1853 calories if the 1910 I'm allotted if I hope to lose two pounds this week.  (I do.)

Good luck, Whatevs. Oddly enough, I thawed a nice tri-tip roast overnight, and I'll be grilling it tomorrow evening -- marinate it in beer and Worcestershire, black pepper and garlic powder.

Right now, I'm making breakfast: toasted muffin sandwiches of bacon, egg, cheese, and grilled chicken, to be washed down with coffee and milk.

Eating malt.

Is malt healthy? Cos I dunno. Google won't confirm either way for me.

Made fried rice tonight. Added an entire bunch of green onions, the meat from 4 chicken thighs, half a bag of shrimp, and a pork tenderloin.

Digesting pepperoni pizza and a cinnamon "pull apart" from Papa Johns. 

Looking at hot buttered rum recipes.

A hot toddy sounds like a very good idea right now. I don't think I've fully warmed up since I left the office at 4 this afternoon.

My recipe for a hot drink involves a couple of spoonfuls of brown sugar plus cinnamon, cloves and other spices, and about a tablespoon of butter if using it (often I don't bother), blended in a mug with boiling water. I then add the alcohol, give it a taste, and adjust the sweetener if necessary.
