Pizza craving satisfied! Bought a couple of slices(you get 2 decent slices out of one slice for $11) from my local “gourmet” chain.
Right side had pepperoni, bacon and mushrooms.
Top left had Sausage, rapini and chili flakes(the used to make this with fresh jalapeño and it was fire!)
had to gussy them up a bit with some of my roasted peppers on the sausage one and they both got drizzled with garlic oil and showered with real Parm Regg, not that fake crap they have on the counter cause I’m boujee like dat

Supermarket rotisserie chicken,
A rift on Schwarties Potatoes / funeral potatoes. I took a pan of previously roasted potatoes, added milk and sour cream , topped with shredded havarti/ Gouda blend from Farm Boy, baked until golden.
Mushrooms sautéed with garlic butter, thyme, pepper, and a splash of balsamic near the end.
Pear and apple Waldorf with walnuts, dried cherries and currants.

Mexican shrimp cocktail and fresh fried flour tortilla chips to accompany cocktails and final Season 14 of the old TV series DALLAS. A few episodes to go and I will be SO glad when it’s over with. Maybe a leftover cheeseburger later on.

Kind of a weird dinner. Jamaican-style spicy beef hand pie from the posh deli/butcher/bakery + crunchy vegs with blue cheese dip that I obviously started on while the hand pie was still in the oven. That hand pie is so good that when I see it I always get one for now and one for the freezer. The pastry is delicious and stains everything yellow - annatto I think but maybe turmeric? And the filling is shredded beef, potatoes and peas and very spicy.

Today the fabulous Mrs. P turned ‘sexty’ five 
Like a fine wine, she gets better with age 
We celebrated with a feast at our favorite Sichuan restaurant, Chengdu 1 Palace. We have some more fancy dinners planned for this weekend. We enjoyed hot and spicy lobster and prawns, three pepper chicken, garlic eggplant, stir fry lamb, ants climbing a tree, and spicy baby wontons in chili oil. It all went great with an excellent zinfandel. There were plenty of leftovers for another dinner tomorrow night and possibly another night next week.

Zucchini pizza with homemade basil pesto and three cheeses. Chopped garden salad with cukes, tomatoes, shallots, and bell peppers – the vinaigrette was spiked with Penzey’s Greek Seasoning.
Probably the last of either dish for the season. Fall is here and I’m outta cukes.

I don’t care how weird your dinners are.
As long as you keep using paper plates, you keep doing weird.

Just looking at that spread requires omeprazole, Pepcid Complete and a swig or two of Mylanta later on. Happy #65 Mrs. P!

Thanks! Well we did take Pepcid before the meal, and I have been drinking seltzer, and had a few ginger chews to settle my stomach
