Leftover Sortie

 Keeping dry, y'all?

I didn't have a lick of trouble. Do you know why?

It's not because I've purchased rain gear stalwart enough to withstand monsoon season.

No, folks. 
It's because rain all day means it's my favorite time of day all day long:

SWEATPANTS O'CLOCK!!

No amount of height on your heels will make those sweatpants fancy.

So, did you waste your sweatpants time this Sunday by wearing clothes?

I  didn't.

I had a good ole time staying in my house today.

I made tea.

I read a book. It may have been of the comic variety.

I went about using up all my left-overs. 

P-Cheese Sandwich

It's lunchtime again, y'all.

Or do you call it dinnertime? My relatives in Mississippi would call it that, but they wouldn't touch the lunch I made for myself.

No, sirree.

Whole wheat bread? Yuck.

But I ate it all up, and it was delicious.


.....

So what did I make????

A pimiento cheese sandwich with leftover lentil salad graced my plate this afternoon. I made the sandwich on whole wheat bread. 

(You aren't supposed to do that.)

(But I'm a rule breaker folks.)

Me & this dog are two rebellious peas in a pod.

Admittedly, the sandwich MIGHT have been tastier on honey wheat bread (Newman's own, my Daddy Bob's favorite by the way) or some wonderbread probably.

But y'all. That pimiento cheese sandwich was good. The cheese spread was good. Good enough to eat on 100% whole wheat bread. 

(With seeds in it and everything.)

Do you want to see?

Lazy Late Lunch

It's early evening, y'all.

I lazed around all day, and now it's nearly 5 pm and I haven't gotten lunch in yet. See how filling oats can be?

They really keep you full.

Especially when you don't expend any energy.

Well, I fixed something real rustic and summery for myself this evening. It'll go good with this wine my friend dropped off. She's been in Spain, and was nice enough to bring me back a bottle of red wine. It's called Berberana Cosecha Red.

I think I'll like it with my lentil salad.

I got the recipe from budget bytes, and didn't change the littlest thing. I might substitute something for the parsley next time, I think I'd prefer cilantro or something.

What do you think?

Anyhow, I had worked up an appetite puppysitting and relaxing all day so I rounded out my lunch-that-became-a-supper with some spiral ham and a stuffed eggplant.

Summer creeped up on me & it brought along some produce. Everybody, I love eggplants.

CAUTION

Aubergines you might call them if you live abroad?

I'm not a meat fanatic, but I admit I enjoy a honey glazed spiral ham. It's leftover from my step sister's graduation party, my vegan parents didn't want it.

How am I going to eat it all???????!

I don't know, but I started tonight.
