corona lockdown day 196

 Rustle had its first in person service at 9am today. I slept in and needed to pick up some things for James so I opted for the 11am online service.

I went to Giant Tiger which was pretty quiet and enjoyable to shop quickly and efficiently.

James has decided he likes ketchup chips. He also is really enjoying Trenton. They are in a hockey bubble and so far so good. 1 week down.

Generally when I order the chefs plate there are many dishes that are not acceptable for my picky tastes so it makes it easy to pick the 3 that I am ok with or like. I have a week in late October that I am having trouble with the decision though so I thought I would talk through it here. These are the options:

1. Spicy Korean beef tacos- I have made these before and they were ok but I like to try making new things

2. One pot Italian meatball soup- this looks yummy and have never made before so it makes it a YES.

3. Peanut satay chow mein- I don't like peanuts

4. Pan seared chicken and bacon cream sauce- has mushrooms which I hate

5. Souvlaki style pork chops- I think I have made this one before- I found the pork chops pretty tough so not high on my list of approved meals

6. Diner burgers and oven fries- not too keen on burgers

7. Mediterranean baked feta with spiced pita chips- a good possibility but the last time I made a feta dish I overcooked it and it wasn't as good as it could be. If I get this I need to watch the stove more carefully.

8. Creamy cheese and pepper pasta with cauliflower- I think I have made this one before and it was good

9. Naked turkey burrito bowl- I've had a number of their burrito bowls before and they are ok. Not sure why this one is called naked

10. Refried bean and sweet potato burritos- other people in the family object to sweet potatoes

So other than #2 I don't know which way I am going with this week. Let me know if you have thoughts for me! Note that there are more choices than in the past and now 4 veggie options for vegetarians. I have referral codes if you want to try it, just let me know!
