What's for Dinner #123 - the Start of the End of the Year Edition - November 2025

I was dragging a bit this AM after last night’s shananana-nanigans, NGL! :woozy_face:

Had to make a 30 min drive to see an endocrinologist who was super-young, super-nice, and kinda surprised to see me there, as he didn’t think my numbers warranted a visit :thinking:

30 min later & $30 poorer we got a coupla fantabulous smashburgers for lunch, and on the place’s last open day of the season at that. Must be my lucky week! :upside_down_face::woman_dancing:

Did a lil more driving in the afternoon, then picked up fixins for tonight’s delovely egg-“fried” rice — with properly aged rice, none of that fresh nonsense… but it still turned out more like, umm, SE Asian risotto :confused: Think I’ll leave the rice frying to the purfeshnels from now on (or get TJ’s frozen veg fried rice, which makes for a nice base, and the texture is better than what I can accomplish myself).

Here’s a PIC of tonight’s mise aka TPSTOG,G&TBP.

Bok choy, carrots & peas joined the wok party, as did the two lonely lemongrass snossidges in the fridge, plus a handful of mid-sized shrimp for extra protein.

Finished as usual with Viet kumquat hot sauce, and the last of the Sinatra leaves on top.

Looking forward to a quiet night with my doodz. Hosting a game again tomorrow!
