Well, shucks. I was going to come up with something else to talk about today, but I just couldn’t wait to tell you how much I love my new vegetable steamer, and how wonderful steamed broccoli can be. I don’t know how in the world I managed to do it right the first time, because that never happens with me. Maybe steaming vegetables is foolproof, or maybe I got lucky. Either way, the broccoli was like candy. Only better, of course. Because it’s broccoli and not candy.
The one thing I wanted out of today was to sleep in. I did, but I slept so late that my feeding schedule was thrown off. When you have breakfast at 1:00 in the afternoon, what do you do for lunch? I skipped it, for once, except for an orange and a banana at 4:00. I knew I had big plans for dinner (relatively speaking), so I didn’t think missing one meal would be the worst thing I could do.
The meatless meatloaf that I had tonight was good, but a lot of work. It involved draining tofu, and sautéing celery and onions, and improvising when I discovered I didn’t have any ketchup in the house. (I used chili sauce, and why I had that and no ketchup I don’t know.) I think maybe whether I make it again in the future will depend on how good a meatloaf sandwich I can make out of it for lunch tomorrow. |
