I
have been working to get settled in at home, and it has been difficult to work
on my blogs since I have so much to do, including looking for a job. On Wednesday, I had the pleasure of taking a
break and having lunch with some old friends that I have not seen in
years. However, I didn't really feel
like going shopping and cooking dinner afterwards, however, I had too. You see,
the face in the corner was what I had faced the night before. When I lived at home and sometimes when my
mother would visit me, I would fix Stir-fry.
And she likes it a lot, but she loves it when I fix it. Well, Tuesday evening, she went to the store
and she said that she was going to purchase the ingredients for Stir-fry. When she came home, I should have known that
something was wrong. She said that what
she bought just needed to be cooked, but it was a lot more expensive than what
she remembered. Also, she told me that I
could just add more peppers and onions to stretch it. I said When I lived at home and sometimes when my

and onions to a stir-fry. When I went
into the kitchen, I started looking in the freezer for the frozen vegetables
and meet, but they were in the refrigerator in one container. I read the container, and I looked up and
said, “Mom, you bought Chicken fajitas.
That was why it is so expensive.”
She shrugged her shoulders and asked if we could still have it over
brown rice. I told her sure. Well, as you know, Chicken Fajitas is not
Chicken Stir-fry, so when she fixed her plate, a very small plate, she picked around
her food, pouted and ate. Later she came
back and fixed a salmon burger because she was still hungry. It was not my fault, but I still felt bad. So, after my Wednesday lunch, I went to
Kroger’s. When I went

Kroger’s
has a new organic/natural brand called Simple Truth; well at least it is new to
me. There are no Kroger’s in Albany . I got lucky because I was able to use my
eCoupon to purchase fresh cut Stir-fry vegetable and fully cooked Fajita steak
strips. I decided to get the Fajita
steak strips for two reasons, the first was because we have been eating a lot
of chicken, the second because I always season my meat when I stir-fry. The meat was just going to have an
Asian-Mexican fusion thing going on. This
made preparing stir-fry much easier, I did not feel like doing all of that
chopping. So, Wednesday night, my mother
had the Beef stir fry which she said was great.
I don’t know how it tasted, I ate my leftovers that night for dinner,
and she ate the rest of the stir-fry for lunch the next day. But, I was happy that I did not have to look
at that sad face at dinner time.
