Sunday 6.4
Tonight I hosted a graduation party for my Cambodian godson Sotheara who recently got his MBS from UMass Lowell. I had him, his two brothers, his mom and Michael over for dinner. Before they got there I had an Italian sandwich and while I was cooking I ate some Sugarbush Farm Cheddar that I picked up when I was in Vermont.
For dinner I mad smoked chicken and Pig Rock bratwurst. I also baked salmon, which I think they liked much better than the bbq. To go with it we had asparagus two ways, one roasted the other dressed with mustard vinaigrette, and mashed potatoes which is him mom’s favorite. Finally for dessert we had my wife’s famous rum cake. There were a couple of things today that are competing early for best thing I ate this week.
Monday 6.5
Not a very interesting food day. I stoped at Shaw’s and got a chicken sandwich. It was good last time, this time it was just ok. For dinner I had left over BBQ. I ate it cold. I did salvage the day with a final piece of rum cake.
Tuesday 6.6
Late night at work and a very busy day all around. I stopped at Il Massimo for a late lunch/early dinner. I got carpaccio and brussels sprouts. I also ate the free bread because I was starving and it is delicious. When I got home, I had celebratory cupcakes with my wife and son. They were from Concord Market and we all agreed not that great.
Wednesday 6.7
I was home today and so made myself a sandwich for lunch. It was fried salami with cheese and a runny egg. I also ate some pretzels with it. For dinner, I made chicken stir fry which turned out very good. Then for dessert I heated up the last of the banana bread my wife made on Sunday. Good day of food.
Thursday 6.1
We had a work party today and the food wasn’t too exciting. I had gone to DeNo’s for a steak and cheese for lunch. i like mine with extra cheese and peppers and onions. DeNo’s has been good lately, but this was just ok. I doused it with Frank’s RedHot which made it much better. So back to the party, the food wasn’t too great so I ended up eating some steak and cheese calzone. Not as good as DeNo’s and my Frank’s was back in my office. Oh well.
Kelly and I went to Karma once we got home. We got the Thai Spare Ribs which we had had once before but not for a while and a place of sushi. Their yellowtail is the best. It’s my favorite sushi fish and theirs is always so so good. After that we went to Bedford Farms for dessert. We all split a small oreo. I got jimmies on it cause that’s what Kelly and Thomas like.
Friday 6.9
My summer work schedule has started but Kelly’s has not. I held off on lunch thinking we might go out to get a drink after work. On my way home she let me know she wasn’t going to be able to so I stopped at Crosby’s and got a grocery store burger. They aren’t as bad as they should be. I also got a bag of Lays Salt and Vinegar Chips. I’ll be snacking on those for the next few days.
For dinner I cleaned out the fridge. I made the last of the chicken, some potatoes, some green beans (for me) and some broccoli (for Kelly). It was a nice dinner. For dessert we split the very last (I think) of Thomas’s Easter candy. I had the ears and the left foot, Thomas had the face and the right foot, and Kelly had the body. By the way the chocolate bunny was filled with peanut butter. i figure that’s an important detail.
Saturday 6.10
Our friends invited us out for brunch at The Farmer’s Daughter. (Trying a new thing with this link). We had a great time. I got the traditional eggs benedict, which was very good. The ham was particularly delicious. Kelly got the chicken and waffles benedict and we split a blueberry buckle. I finished the end of her dish too.
For dinner I had a turkey and cheese sandwich with some chips. I figured I ate more than enough this morning.
Top Three
Like most weeks, the top three is giving me fits. I’m hungry as I’m writing this so I’m thinking if I could have three things from the week to eat right now what would they be? Here are the three best things I ate:
3. Lemon-Herb Baked Salmon (Sunday)
2. Rum Cake (Sunday and Monday)
1. Fried Salami, Egg, and Cheese Sandwich (Wednesday)
