Mom was getting after me yesterday saying i should eat more salads.
i like salad, but i also do like some variety once in a while so i suggested a carrot salad or a brocolli salad or cole slaw instead.
so the question is, what have you made differently than normal lately?
aside from salads we had some ham roll-ups the other day and those were well received. taco salad was also yummy, but i've now finished that off. today is baked beans, which are common enough here i don't consider that something different.
last week Mom made some Dominoe Bars, which are chocolate graham cracker crust with lemon filling and then topped with a thin layer of dark chocolate. she rarely makes just one of something so i'm sure a few are stuck in the freezer or perhaps she gave them away, but the one pan that was in the fridge is long-gone.
a few weeks ago we made tapioca pudding which was different, but Mom decided that she doesn't like making that so i get to make the next batch.
hmm, trying to think about what else we've done that is out of the ordinary.
for others i'm sure that tart dried cherries and peanut butter in oatmeal would be out of the ordinary, but that has been part of the morning routine here once or twice a week for the past month or two. i like how the tart and sweet combines with the peanut butter, but the peanut butter is just to give the oatmeal more energy and staying power to get me through until later in the day. of course, i do like peanuts and peanut butter so it all is good. i'm avoiding adding extra sugar to this so i skip the brown sugar.
hmm... i guess i talked myself into making breakfast at last...
