After a pretty rough night, I felt pretty crusty today. Tired. Low. All of those less desirable feelings. And do you know what sucks about feeling that way? Your family still has to eat! 🙄 I know. Ridiculous. And on a day where I just would’ve preferred to be a slacker.
Ok so I still was a slacker. Totally. But a slacker who still made sure everyone ate supper. Hear me out, though, it ended up being good!
Someone brought over some groceries for us the other day. Just as a gift. Just because of love. Which is crazy, by the way. Included in the groceries was a bag of these HUGE kaiser buns, all soft and fresh and bonkers delicious. We ate some on Saturday, and I grabbed the rest for supper today. Also from these same people, I cracked out a few packs of sandwich meat as well. I went to slice cheese but had some that I had shredded for a meal recently that was leftover. That worked. Plus basic sandwich stuff. Mayo, mustard, etc. So. Sandwiches.
We had tacos a couple of days ago and there were lots of veggies left. So, some lettuce for sandwiches and the rest in a big bowl with everything else. Boom. Salad.
Aaaaand a cantaloupe that I was hiding in the fridge because it was ready before I was. The whole fridge smelled amazing. It was time. Today was the day.
So my crappy slacker meal turned into a delicious meal of yummy summertime camping food. It wasn’t the perfect day for it, I suppose, considering that meal really should be eaten in the sun and today was overcast. But I am not nitpicking. It worked out. Everyone got lots of delicious good food, and I barely had to do any work.
Win. All around. I can’t wait to eat so many more meals like this around a campfire. 🔥
