It’s always good to rotate your stocks. Rice and beans store really well but it’s still a good idea to use some of it and replace.
 
Went to an Indian/Pakistani restaurant today. Tried just about everything. It’s amazing how some of that stuff dosen’t taste hot at all for about the first thirty seconds and then the burn starts kicking in…. The chapati flatbread they cook fresh right there was amazing. It’s slightly buttery and garlicky and great for sopping up everything. Was interesting to see them cook it too. There is a round verticals cooker and they press the dough on its sides to cook it. How it dosen’t just slide off into the fire I have no idea but it was worth the trip all on its own. I love trying new foods.
 
I sliced up two chicken breasts and stir fried them. Then I stir fried a bag of frozen vegetables along with seasonings and I added a slightly spicy cheese sauce into the whole mix. Awesome lunch. And will be my main meal for the next couple days now.
 
I decided to treat my beautiful wife to dinner for her birthday. After the response I got of preparing her the 10 year old MRE of her choice, I quickly changed plans and took her out to eat at Dragos.

I had leftovers for supper today, from our church thanksgiving dinner last night. It was really good. I even ate some pie last night at the dinner but I didn't bring any home with me. Too much temptation to get me back in the habit of eating sugar.

I'm unable to open the recipe, but if it contains vodka its got to be good.

My thoughts exactly. Its a vodka tomato sauce, can be used with pasta and pizza, and whatever else - supposedly super delicious.

My idiot daughter in law says you must not say Peking, You must say "Bay Jing."

Peking is Cantonese, Beijing is Mandarin. Guangdong Province is called Canton in Cantonese.
We had a lot of Cantonese in this country at one time that came over to work on the railroads, and the Chinatowns were mostly Cantonese, so a lot of Cantonese words were familiar to Americans before Mandarin words were.

The discouragement to use Cantonese words is all the CCP's doing. Hong Kong speaks Cantonese. Google Translate does not even list Cantonese as an option now. (CCP's doing)

So your daughter in law is obeying the CCP.
 
I made a few things for meal preps for the week. I'm on call so I want to have stuff ready if I don't have time to cook (and I don't want to be grabbing Whataburger or Chick-Fil-A either lol). I ate a "little" of each to test of course 😆. I made split pea soup with a side of brown rice, a kale salad with mixed berries, carrots, pistachios, and a homemade balsamic vinaigrette and whole pan of hard boiled eggs (a great quick protein snack!). While cooking, of course I had a couple glasses of wine ;).
