What's for Dinner, Sat., Sept. 13, 2025

Cheez Doodles and Water.

Three-quarters of a chocolate pie for dessert.

I am joking, but I will have to go out for something tonight because I worked outside all day and came in to find the workaround my plumber did to get us water last night had broken. Once again the corner of my living room was being drenched with water--this time hot, scalding water. Steamed up the entire living room.

I shut off the water. The plumber is on his way to fix it and a neighbor came to help me with the mess, so at least it's all cleaned up.

As far as dinner goes, I'll either go out to one of the new salad takeout places or make myself a tuna fish salad. It will probably be the former since I have no water to wash dishes.

We’re going to an old dive hamburger place nearby. He loves their cheeseburgers, fries (yes, they are served in a basket lined with paper) and their cold beer on tap. Cheap date night for me since it’s my treat.

That’s more than your share of water catastrophes. 🙀

The cheese doodles made me laugh, though, because I just scolded myself for noshing a third of a bag of these…

Steam-fried in evoo and veggie broth: chopped onion, green bell pepper, sliced carrots, cauliflower florets, mushrooms, minced garlic and ginger. When done I added crispy tofu cubes and Patak’s curry sauce. Served over organic brown basmati rice. Cheers!🥂
