When Mr. Big Food ventures off the Farm for more than a day or two, those of us who remain behind worry that we will starve to death in his absence.
Not really-- we all know our way around the kitchen, and Lord knows we have the raw materials. But it's a pretty good running Family Joke.
When left to our own devises, we improvise. To whit:
Monday
Salad & Pizza.
Miss M & her Friend, Michael, picked some things up in Starkvegas-- including two portions of pizza dough from Venice, a Pizza restaurant. The dough cost $5. For those who don't do math, that's two dollars and fifty cents per pizza. They loaded each pizza-- vegan & carnivore-- with a healthy dose of freshly picked true Greek Oregano. I can only speak to the deliciousness of the carnivore version (although I did have a taste of the delicious vegan version) -- Pepperoni. Salami. Feta.
And they picked a salad from the garden and tossed it with oil & vinegar.
Tuesday
Salad & Baked Potato.
The freshly picked salad was much the same, except that it included leftover pizza options. So I scattered some diced pepperoni and salami on mine.
Miss M baked the potatoes in the oven.
Good Lord. Butter. Sour Cream. Still more leftover cut up onions &c. Food Coma.
Wednesday
A hard day. Miss M put her Friend on a Plane. Miss M went to MEM and then spent an hour at Whole Foods. Mr Big Food & I Skyped.
I had a sandwich for supper. I chopped up some radishes, and some garden cress and mixed it with some tuna and mayonnaise and buttered a piece of bread and sliced some Camembert cheese that Miss M had purchased at Whole Foods, and topped my paper plate with some Lays Potato Chips.
Simply Delicious!
