Haha! Guess who's been AWOL lately? Yup, me! I'll take another stab at this. I know I sort of just dumped food concoctions here in the past (and I'll probably do it still to some extent), but I'll stick some more meaningful stuff here as well.

I'd like to just outright cross-dump from my blog, but since I'm writing my posts (in MarsEdit) in HTML, I don't think estrip will like that very much when it comes to parsing this text-box out. I should probably adopt estrip more-so for a mobile-blogging platform. Didn't (e:paul) make an Android app or something for this?

Anyhoo, so I'm plotting out weekly agendas for dinner. This has epically failed every time in the past, but I'm trying to go easier on myself this time. I'm also making it a goal to cook out of The Silver Spoon at least once a month. Finally, I'm trying to use this as a way to better learn to scale recipes for one (while I'm still single, as my roommate doesn't partake in my dishes too often). Anyhoo, here's a list of what I'm planning for the week so far:

Tuesday: Crockpot ranch turkey tossed with green peas and rotini, and an Indian sweet dish of sorts (It is some sort of sweet carrot and cashew dish that Siva, our current rotation student in the laboratory, described and encouraged me to try. I am going to tweak the dish a little bit and add in some shredded coconut at the end to add even more deliciousness to it!).
Wednesday: Cream of garbanzo bean au gratin, followed by pork chops with blueberry sauce (this should intrigue (e:janelle) I would imagine, if she sees this).
Thursday: Homemade pizza, predominantly onion, tomato, and mushrooms. Maybe some meat if I have leftovers from either of the above two dinners.
Friday: My awesomesauce spaghetti (hah! punny!), with broiled garlic cheese bread or sage and rosemary bread.

I'll sneak some photos in as they come to be!
