What did you eat today?

["couldbecousin"]

Egg white omelet with mushrooms, spinach and diced tomatoes, oatmeal and fresh fruit.  Fit Fare Omelet from Denneys.

 That actually sounds delicious as well as healthy! 



 Except for the oatmeal.

Haven't eaten that much today (yet) but ate a slice of a bread with cheese, half an orange, 2 walnuts and 2 'lange vingers'/cookie with a cup of tea. Thinking about what to eat a little later now.

 I love the idea of bread and cheese as a lunch, it sounds so simple and rustic!
 It reminds me of what the goatherd ate in Heidi --- bread, cheese and goat's milk!

It's very common here for folks to eat a slice of bread (or sandwich) with some slices of cheese on it. Tadski butter between it usually. Well, 'we' eat a lot of cheese in Holland. Most of us dutchies eat it for breakfast or lunch that way.

.. and I, love cheese too.

 I love it too, I think cheese belongs in its very own food group!

Pastrami and Havarti cheese with French's mustard on a bagel for breakfast.

[Queen Victoria]

2 eggs over easy, 3 slices of bacon, 2 slices of rye toast.

Made a ratatouille like dish.

Was nice, but, not half as good as the last time I made it.

 What did you do differently this time? 

['andersom']

I think I was more hasty in the beginning, taking less time. Never a good idea, to hurry when making a meal.
Also, now I made it for the three of us. Last week I made it for just me.
This time, all the vegetables were freshly cut, last week, I made it from the leftover vegetables from Christmas "gourmetting" The slices courgette and aubergine had dried out a bit.

Still was good, just not that good. I had enough for two last week, and had to eat it all, because it was so awesome.

[Callaway]

Spaghetti with tomato and basil sauce.

Due to me getting invited to have christmas dinner at my sister's last year I ice-saved the scallops I bought and thought I'd eat for supper that evening. This morning I took them out of the fridge and thought to make a nice dinner with the six I had.. but a big deception I got when I popped them in the pan. The smell that entered my nose when they met the hot surface of the pan.. was awful. Nasty.

Thrown the fuckers away and replaced them with some (cold) slices of ham and ate, what I already prepared, some mashed potatoes and some green beans.

I hate that awful ammonia fishy smell of seafood that has gone bad.

I'm glad that you had something else ready to eat instead.

[lutra]

^ Ja, that's a bad odour for real.

Um, made a mental note today to always eat the seafood I buy the very same day. Never to deep fry any of it again.. to use later on. No no.

Such a shame it was though.. for they can be awesome. Plus, shame-wise, I made a nice 'roux' or sauce, with butter/flour/cream/white wine/shallots and a carrot made tiny/salt/pepper, for them too. In vain. Thus.

But hey, saved my system/body some (serious) trouble, I think.. throwing them away.

[Callaway]

The white sauce sounds like it would have tasted great.
