Wednesday

When I first entered the kitchen, hungry, weary from the road and ready to crash... I did soup:
I had pour-over coffee while I waited for the soup to heat.
Good ol' Amy's low-sodium vegetable chunky on the ready for a quick fix.
I opened a bag of emergency organic popcorn while I waited for the soup to heat.
threw some croutons on the soup and ate the whole thing. I napped all afternoon.
Dinner
After a long day nap... another quickie:
blue tortillas heated in olive oil with leftover seasoned (canned) black beans and swiss cheese.
organic coconut milk for beverage....
