My 2015 Dinner's So Far ...

New Year, Slow Start ... The cooking is coming! Lol


12/31 ... Quality Inn Resort - Clearwater, Florida - Nacho's; a hurried dinner/snack while starting to partake of New Year's Eve adult beverages after a 10 hour drive and the only food in our bellies was a rushed Cracker Barrel breakfast at 9 am somewhere in Georgia. Oh, Don't forget the Starbucks an exit later ... LOL



1/1 ... Crabby Bill's - Clearwater, Florida - Crab & Corn Chowder, Cold Boiled Shrimp, Sweet Potato Fries with BBQ Sauce; a great dinner with great friends. We also had the BEST Bloody Mary's at Jimmy's Iguana Bar for brunch. The Wisconsin Burger was damn good too! But, then, who doesn't LOVE cheese.




1/2 ... Salt Life Food Shack - St. Augustine, Florida - Backyard Beer Can Chicken, Island Style Ribs, Grilled Whole Corn, Tropical Fried Rice & Black Bean Orzo; We stumbled across this neat place while looking for another. So glad we came back and tried it for dinner. Dinner was good, but the ambiance was awesome. We will be back. We ate at IHOP for breakfast in Clearwater then lunched with my Dad and his lady friend in Arcadia before hitting the road for St. Augustine.

 

1/3 ... Little Caesars - Sumter, SC - Sausage Pizza & White Cheddar Popcorn; luckily we had a great day walking around the historical district of St. Augustine and we grabbed a bite at Ann O'Malley's. The Guiness was top notch. The pizza for dinner was about all we could handle after being stuck in traffic for a several hours!


1/4 ... Leftover Irish Stew from Boxing Day. Really tried to kick back and enjoy my last day of winter break. Unpacking and laundry was a must. Hubby roped me into some holiday decoration chores and I was nice and helped with a smile. I might not have cooked dinner, haven't been shopping, but I did make a rustic apple pie from scratch. Yummy. Have to get those apples used up in the crisper from the fall.


1/5 ... China Wing - Beef & Broccoli with Rice. First day back to work. Lots of stuff to finish up months end and year end. After a bad nights sleep and a very early morning I just wasn't feeling cooking. Then I babysat for a hour or so. Hubby came home late and had to leave again to finish some work. So we both decided Chinese sounded good!


I have been sitting here flipping through and sorting recipes. I will remember to throw my food bags in the car, in the morning, so I can shop after work. Something with shrimp sounds good. Something with just a few ingredients. Something healthy. Something FAST and EASY!
