Sometimes, I go to the grocery store with the best intentions. “Yeah, I’m going to pick out some stuff that looks great, and cook dinner tonight” even though it was eleventy thousand degrees today, and I’m exhausted. Sometimes I think I’m going to pick up some shortcuts, but still really cook a meal myself. You know what I mean, pre-chopped peppers and onions, pre-cut meat…
And sometimes, I flat out cheat.
Sometimes I go straight to the Whole Foods meat counter, buy pre-made something or other, cook it through, and feast.
Tonight? It was an easy decision. The cute fish guy was putting fresh salmon burgers into the case, and my mind was made up.
Salmon burgers with feta and spinach, atop Ezekiel hamburger buns, with a side of roasted broccoli.
Ok. I guess I cooked a little.
Camper quote of the day: “Wow, you have scary hair!”
I know MamaPea can appreciate that one…
I may or may not have bought some peanut butter chocolate coconut milk ice cream too…
Yep. This post was boring. Sorry

How can this post be considered boring? Nothing is boring coming from you my dear! And if I would have seen those salmon burgers, dinner would have been a no brainer!

Eh…that’s not a cheat meal. Jack in the Box is a cheat meal.

My dinner was stouffers lasagna, caesar salad, and garlic bread. I cheated more. However, the garlic bread and salad were put together myself and not prepackaged that’s something, right?
And the picture is totally worth it. I don’t even LIKE salmon and I want to eat that…

Anything that involves chocolate peanut butter coconut milk ice cream can’t be boring. Although a picture of said delight would have been nice

I tried! I really did! I just couldn’t get a decent shot of it without it looking like, well, poop…

What are you trying to say about my hair?
Actually, Gigi and I did a little deep conditioning tonight, so your comment hit pretty close to home!

I need some deep conditioning, my camp hair is a nightmare!!

Be happy you have a WF prepared food section! My only choice would be Walmart. No thank you.
Haha I can top the hair comment, I had a fourth grader tell me she liked me but was also scared of me because I “move my eyebrows so much”. Oh and do coworkers count – like the four times last fall I was asked if I was pregnant and I was NOT?
Boring? You? Salmon burgers? PB chocolate coconut milk ice cream? No!
Wei-Wei
We all cheat sometimes…or more than just sometimes…don’t apologize, that looks yummy!
