Food Digest

Late lunch — 2:45pm. Two slices bologna, one slice salami, two slices American cheese, toasted on wheat bread with a smear of Ranch dressing. Definitely was missing a key ingredient that could have made it, I don’t know, less boring. Maybe mustard? Could it be that simple? Very possibly.

Back to the work grind, back to the lunch grind. Two slices of salami, one slice of bologna, one slice of American cheese on wheat bread with mayo, and a side of carrots and red grapes. A perfectly fine way to celebrate a Monday afternoon. Besides, you know, working for a living…

Chicken tenders, seasoned fries and a little cup of buffalo sauce. I’m done skiing for the weekend and I didn’t need to be airlifted to a hospital. This all adds up to a win.

Lunch at Alpine Valley! Four trips down the slopes in my first time ever skiing and no falls. Miraculous. Stopped to grab lunch with the rest of our group. Had a serviceable southwest chicken wrap and seasoned fries in the lodge lounge, by the fire. Getting ready to suit up and head back out.

Bee Bim Bop is the Friday special at Evanston Grill ($6.45), and I was lucky enough to be just down the street at the lunch hour to capitalize. Used an ample amount of the spicy sauce before mashing it all together and eating it with a spoon. When it’s been a while, I crave this dish. And even though I don’t come in here often, the Korean family that runs the place always remember me. (And their son is always incredibly grumpy.)

A turkey sandwich and the last of the leftover pasta-and-sausage. Just doing my part to help clean out the refrigerator.
