Dinner last night was a treat from our friends, so we got to enjoy a nice evening out with friends for free. We went to a restaurant with plenty of vegetarian and vegan offerings, along with other healthy meat-based entrees, so there was plenty to choose from for all of us.

Dinner tonight was pizza along with some fresh produce, and since the oven's already hot DD and I made some chocolate chip cookies too (they're in the oven as I type).

Tomorrow night is soup and some baked potatoes. I'm trying to use up fresh things before we go out of town for the holiday. I wonder if I could make oven fries and then freeze them. I bet I could, and I'll have an extra potato or two to deal with.

I made a trip to the bread thrift store today. For about $15, I got...

2 loaves of Milton's bread
8 whole wheat hamburger buns
8 egg hamburger buns
2 bags of Bob's Red Mill veggie soup mix
1 bag Bob's Red Mill 5 grain cereal
1 bag Bob's Red Mill polenta
1 Entenmann's butter loaf cake
4 blueberry mini-loaves
1 package of fig newton-type cookies

Three of the items were free (loyalty card plus spending at least $10) and all of the Bob's products are 10% off this month. A good haul when all is said and done.
