Self Indulgent Whining

Aug 16, 2011 13:40

I'm soooo broke, and so hungry.  I have food, but it's.... um... I'm getting down to the dregs of the cabinet.  I'm creative, but my creativity is running out.  I get paid tomorrow, so you'd better believe as soon as my check is direct deposited I am going out for breakfast.

I knew it was gonna be tight this week, so I'm glad I did stock up on food.  I'm not starving, but... ugh.   I bought fish because it's good for you, but I always go to the beef or chicken first, then the pork, then beans... so I was left with fish this week.  I've never wanted a freakin' steak so bad in my life!   I have eggs, but I hate eggs.  They're mostly in my fridge so when I have a recipe that calls for them, I have them.  So today it's shrimp fried rice, because I have those ingredients.  I do like eggs in that, and normally I'd be excited, but this is like, the third time this week.  I'm over pasta and egg noodles, too.

If anyone has any brilliant ideas for half a zucchini, instant coffee, frozen shrimp, peas, green beans, a half a red onion, various canned beans, left over brown rice, an egg, a little bit of peanut butter, and probably over a dozen assorted condiments, feel free to let me know.    I'm thinking it's gonna be black beans and rice for dinner.   That's the best I can do.

I'm seriously considering walking tomorrow morning to the greek breakfast place where they give you like, 3 plates of food for $7.   Diet be damned, that corned beef hash skillet with the side of pancakes is calling my name.  Loudly.

food, whining, money
