We got back home around 10:30 last night. I slept until 930 this morning. Have done an Aldi run for milk, produce, etc. Tonight I'm making ham and cheese sliders and roasted green beans and fruit. Tomorrow Bill is working so I'll do hamburgers, macaroni salad and maybe French fries for the kids and I. Other than that I have no plans.

We grilled some nice petite sirloin steaks on Friday, and I planned to use the leftovers in quesadillas later this week, but the leftover steak mysteriously disappeared. Our final grading happens Tuesday, at which point we can get occupancy for the new place, and the move will happen incrementally--until movers come for the furniture. And, as far as that when that will happen, I have no idea, as I can't schedule them until we have our occupancy permit. All this to say, I have no idea what I will be preparing for meals beyond tonight! I'm sure baked salmon, meatloaf, baked chicken and pasta with ground beef will find their was on to our plates, as those are things I have in the freezer! Enjoy your long weekend!Meg B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09871105973774159424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6173509801114364154.post-2776638098685634672022-07-03T09:44:04.157-05:002022-07-03T09:44:04.157-05:00We have tons of food right now.

I have some deli roast beef i need to freeze for a future quick meal. I’m not cooking a thing til that gets eaten down. I was off Saturday and Sunday but work the 4th. Double time and half and we’ll be dead, so that’s fine with me tbh. Not sure what we’re doing today. There’s a cute arts festival nearby, but daughter also asked me to go fishing with her ( she fishes, we bask in the sun and eat snacks) but husband just asked if we wanted to go into the city, which would be fun since it’s Anthrocon. Something Pittsburgh is pretty unique for-Furries! People who dress up in fur suit have their convention here yearly but this is the first since Covid. They wear their costumes all over town and for whatever reason, Pittsburgh just embraces them. So many options!

I consider lake trips to be the best vacations ever! Yes, we have the Gulf and it is beautiful, but the beach can be kind of stark, and I get sunburned easily. Give me lake shaded trees any day!

I will cook a sheet pan of vegetables to eat for several days. On Monday, I will have hamburgers, slaw and homemade baked beans. <br />I do have the sparklers, our big $1 splurge on fireworks. The fireworks started on Saturday night but were only soft booms in the distance. Practical Parsimonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08419071209412207674noreply@blogger.com
