👩🏻‍🍳 COOKING FOR SANDY DAY
3 days a week, I cook meals for a neighbor who had a stroke last year and has limited mobility. We often share a meal kit or something similar and spend some time together since neither of us go out too much 😁 Today is one of her days. I’m enjoying having someone to cook for again.

For the month of July, she has a friend staying and I am cooking for them both. 😊

Today she wanted a Thai Stle Peanut Crusted Salmon kit we got from Home Chef. They really enjoyed it!

NOTES:
I have made the potato roses before without using the bacon but using these purple yams, they could have used it. They didn’t hold together well without it. 😁

🍱 DINNER 🍱
I had lunch, worked with my lawn guys, cooked for Sandy and spent some time with her and then needed to go to Kroger before their weekly ad changed for a few things. They were looking pretty rough – they are still understaffed and many of the things I went to get were not there. I’ll have to make another trip in next week.

While I was in town, I noticed our local Chinese Buffet I used to go to for seafood nights had finally been able to reopen. No seafood, but it was nice to see them.

I forgot how salty everything was…. Whew! I ended up leaving the beef, part of the beans and a piece of broccoli but the girls are fast and cleared my plate before I could take a picture… 🤣
