Wednesday is Thursday this Week...

We are hosting a river cruise tomorrow night for TBG's best clients, so no dinner at home.  That is OK, I used left-overs to make dinner tonight and it's just like it would be if it were Thursday.  I had stock from last week, and a jar of marinara from last night.  TBG left a half a pepper in the fridge from his chicken wrap at lunch.  Add in half a zucchini,  pearl barley & red quinoa, onion, celery, the tail-end of a bag of cabbage/carrot slaw, and diced chicken breast from Monday, and you have a thick soup made with summer veggies.

 We had the end of a loaf of bread.  I made three batches of pizza dough last week and baked the final batch into bread on Friday to bring to camp.  We didn't eat it then, but we enjoyed it with pasta last  night.  Tonight I chopped it and tossed it with oil and spices, then baked it until crispy.

The soup and "croutons" were delicious.  I still have chicken and veggies to use on Friday -- but we might just have food left from what we'll serve tomorrow night -- which we are getting from a deli.  I still have bones and a couple of corn cobs to make into stock tomorrow.

I made today my last day of work. Everything was done and I saw no point in going in to waste 6 hours.  Truthfully, I am glad to be done.  Apparently only the boss knew I was going and it was a surprise to everyone else.  It ends up like that a lot when I leave a job.  I never said anything  negative to anyone so it might have been a surprise -- unless they were paying attention to the dynamics of what was going on and then they might have realized that I was frustrated and confused a lot of the time (but not with them).  It was a truly strange situation that I am disappointed over, but glad to move on from.  Especially since now I will have time to make consistently yummy, frugal and health meals.  That's "Souper!"
