You Wanna See My Fridge?

I’ve got nothing pithy or wise to share tonight.  We’re dealing with some things over this way, and I am choosing to keep today’s blogging short.  So instead of insight and wit, I shall give you a tour of the IWITW fridge!

But first you must suffer my meals. 

Dinner was great, and cheater.  My favorite kind.

  • Trader Joes picatta sauce
  • free range organic chicken tenders + white beans + mushrooms
  • served over whole wheat spaghetti
  • side salad made by my HUBZ!

If you like picatta, this is very good.  That being said, it is VERY picatta-y, so beware if you’re only an on-the-fence kinda picatta eater.  I like it, so I was a happy little duck.

Rounded out the meal with a pinch of sweet.  Salt water taffy my sis and future bro-in-law brought back for me from their recent jaunt to OC, MD.

  • corn from the cob
  • hard boiled egg
  • 3 teeny slices of ham (from happy piggies)

Breks!  The smoothie du jour was a banana, strawberry, blueberry blend, I like to call Pink.

Last night, while bored, I decided to snap pics of the innards of the IWITW fridge.  I didn’t straighten it up or clean junk out.  This is what she looks like in her unadulterated state…

Here we have the top shelf.  Let’s list what we can see…

So that’s the dog and pony show kids.  Judge away. 

Ciao,
