FOOD SLIDE:
I am just the opposite. I find that the older I get the more I like the meat. However, it does have to be extra tender now. And I’m liking the stir fry a lot — so the few veggies are crisp tender.
But meat and potatoes is by far the most desirable thing by far.
Although I will admit that one of my most favorite meals was always pinto Beans, fried taters, fresh maters, and cornbread smothered with butter-real butter. Still is, but the Dr. advises against it — too many carbs. Ha.
FOOD SLIDE:
You sound like my husband. He eats meat all the time. He also plans his eating annoyingly by the clock, and even the day of the week, but I digress. Suffice it to say we only partake of the same meal together maybe 1 or max 2 times a week. I don’t cook, but for many of the meat dishes, there is an excellent restaurant supply place nearby that sells big frozen bulk packages of uncooked entrees (see, these restaurants may be cheating, too! lol). So we cook them up, divide them into portions, and freeze in containers for two. We then thaw them out as needed, a day before in the fridge.
Here’s a typical Friday or Saturday conversation re. meals:
Mr 17s: Do you want Salisbury Steak and mashed potatoes on Sunday?
Me: We just had spaghetti and meatballs on Thursday. (thinking: ‘yet again’....)
Mr 17s: So? What does that have to do with anything?
Me: I don’t know if I could take another meat meal only 3 days after the last one.
Mr 17s: (Sighs audibly, and gives me a totally non-comprehending stare.)
