First of all... if you can stand Chef John at Foodwishes.com? This recipe for Chinese barbecue pork is so good. Not as good as some of the better restaurants I've had it at, but certainly better than many of the lesser places. I made it in the oven. Make sure the meat is of equal thickness, we had some bits that were overdone, but still, excellent. Made for a nice dinner with rice and veggies, and good with raman the next day! It'll show up one more time in fried rice on Tuesday.

Monday: chili cheese dogs with lo chili, roasted zucchini.


Tuesday: fried rice with leftover pork.


Wednesday: roasted chicken breast, potatoes, Brussels sprouts.


Thursday: roast beef sandwiches with salad.


Friday: chicken piccata, egg noodles, roasted broccoli.


Saturday: turkey meatball heroes (made those this week too. Linnea really liked!)


Sunday: polenta with fried egg and garlicky spinach.



In other boring news, like every year, February allergies are kicking my sorry ass. Despite pollen counts that are "low" it happens every year at about this time. I suspect Western Red Cedar. Thanks to camelsamba, I have drops that help with the eye itchies, but ugh on the scratchy throat, running nose, and sneezies. Gah, February!
