Made scrambled eggs for breakfast.  Then fried onions and the rice I cooked last nite.  Added some frozen spinach too.  Mushrooms would have been nice…didn’t have any.

Tonite I made a roast in an heirloom Dutch oven @ 400*.  I try to get it so the inside is rare….cuz we often fry it to reheat in other meals.  And it tastes better.  Just don’t let the inner temp rise above 160-165*. It will be for tomorrow…needed to get it cooked.

First tho….I’d also sliced off several very thin strips from the roast to make stir fry for supper.  Added frozen broccoli/cauliflower; chopped onion, pineapple, spice/soy sauce/etc.  Finished rice from last nite.  {sigh}  I forgot I asked DH to bring up a can of pineapple….and ate mine before he came up.  End of a busy day…..  {roll eyes}

Then since the oven was heated to 400*, decided to make one more thing.  Auuuugggh!  DH said he saw the oven at 450* and turned it down.  WHAT?  HOW did I manage that?????  I wish he’d thot to check and get it OUT of that overly hot oven.  Had to scrape a lot of dark brown off.  Well….it’s edible anyway but SO annoying when my brain goes on vacation briefly.
