Day 6

I used the last of my farm-fresh eggs for another eggwich this morning.

Since I was working from home I made a salad and had some of my roommate's homemade "Moroccan Red Lentil" soup from the freezer. It has an odd taste but I like it. I'll probably get and post the recipe eventually. The salad is romaine, tomatoes, cucumber, feta and Kalamata olives with "g/s" dressing. g/s stands for garlic/shallot, and consists of a clove of garlic minced with equal part shallot, 1/4 cup evoo, 1 Tb white wine vinegar, 1 tsp balsamic vinegar, s&p. It's a great quick and easy dressing to make.

For dinner I ate hot dogs, rice pilaf and broccoli. The hot dogs are all natural, uncured beef dogs from Applegate Farms. The rice pilaf is a recipe I make fairly often so I'll post it later, and the broccoli was blanched then sauteed in olive oil with a sprinkle of red pepper flakes.

It occurs to me now that Day 6 is the first day of the year when everything I ate came from my kitchen.
