Ya done good. As long as there aren’t 59 more pings before the sun rises in the AM, all will be well.

Tonight, I made hand-crafted mac and cheese with chicken and tomato. I didn’t use a recipe, I just made it. Good food has been scarce, and I’ve got 20 lbs to gain quickly.

Tonight was stir fry chicken. Cheated a bit and used Birds Eye frozen Stir fry vegetables, chicken breasts. As the sauce in those frozen packages have not been the best tasting (learned from experience) Made the Sweet and Sour sauce from scratch.

Did the one here a bit differently in that all was mixed well in a small bowl and then added to the stir fry to cook in the final few minutes of steaming the vegetables to tender. It wasn’t intimidating and used common ingredients that would normally be found in the pantry. Very tasty, and completely gone she said as I pat myself on the back. :)

I’ve found that cornbread, and particularly Jiffy Corn Muffins, are quite fattening. I like to stuff little cooked sausage balls or bacon and cheese cubes in before baking, topped with pickled jalapeno and too much butter :)

A good fattening drink is double-strength hot chocolate with a little Blue Bell on top.

A quick, fattening dessert is mix up chocolate fudge instant cake mix with water just until you can stir it freely, add a bunch of peanut butter, chocolate chips, microwave for 90 seconds, more Blue Bell on top.
