I’m less whiny tonight.  Just put a pasta dish in the oven that should feed me for a couple of weeks.  I have lots of little plastic containers and split it into servings and freeze most of it.  I can take some for lunch a couple days a week, have it for dinner a day or so. Break up the monotony of salads and sandwiches (my usual easy go-to meal).  I splurged and bought “fancy” parmesan cheese.  Hell, I can’t really tell if it tastes much better than the ol’ Kraft cheese in the green can, but it looks nice.  I thought about following a suggestion I read in a cookbook and buying a block of parmesan and grating my own. “It’s cheaper and tastes better,” the book said.

Not at my store, it isn’t. Little tiny block of cheese that costs double per ounce the other options. Maybe I just shop at the wrong store.

I see you, worried that this is turning into a food blog.  Aw hell no.  I’m just hungry and waiting for the cheese to bubble so it’s on my mind.

Back to work in the morning after taking off Presidents’ Day.

The picture is what I cooked tonight, btw.
