Decided to take care of some needed docs so traveled to the main post office in the Bronx. Across the street is a nice Italian restaurant so decided to order some takeout. Big mistake. The pork chops were over cooked and the sauce had all the necessary ingredients but was not cooked together. Threw the chops away and fixing the sauce for another day. Picking at the spaghetti marinara that comes as a side but really not hungry so guess I’ll stick it in the fridge awaiting DGD’s return.
The fridge is essentially empty, DGD returns Saturday morning so I need to stop dithering about.

Going for a one pot simple dinner tonight. Recipe below. Somewhat healthier version of a cheesy beef Mac. I use ground turkey and whole wheat pasta. Will throw together a salad as well.

We really liked the bang bang shrimp on a bed of sautéed lettuce & green onions, so we're making that again tonight. This time we're doubling the recipe, so we can have enough for lunch a couple of days.

Pancakes with a mango topping. Really good stuff.

Hot, hot, hot out again today so no cooking! DH bbq'd hot dogs and we had them with deli potato salad and watermelon, after a refreshing starter course of popsicles. DH and DS are away tomorrow night so if this weather holds it'll just be me and the popsicles.

Chicken fried rice. Baked the chicken first thing this morning and made the rice about an hour ahead of time. Yummy stuff!

Gai Pad Prik King. It was sooo delicious! I didn't use the optional salted duck egg (not a fan). The only differences were I used chicken breast instead of thighs, and string beans, which I blanched and dried well prior to stir frying. I tend to blanch my veggies (at least broccoli and green beans) with Pailin's recipes--for me it just works better.
