For Day six of this challenge I had grand ideas of leftovers. We had chicken one night that is coming to the end of its leftover life and we still had to get through the other half of the pork roast. The leftovers remain.
I blame beer. Beer and birthdays.
No I did not get hammered. I’m quite a light weight and normally the designated driver. To put aside anyone’s fear of drunk driving I will tell you, I drink one beer an hour at max. It gets warm.
After a tough week George and I decided Thursday night that we would go out for a couple of drinks Friday after he got off of work. He got home, we got changed and off we went.
We met up with another couple, Blair and Joe, and had some Miller Lite, at least George and I did, and Blair and I shared some cheese fries. Halfway through the fries we learned some of our friends were headed up to another bar to celebrate a birthday and to cash in on two-for-ones until 8 p.m. There was no choice. Two-for-ones? Birthday? We finished our beers and were off.
I knew now that the pork curry planned for the night was not going to happen. There was no way with our friend Nik turning 30 that George would want to leave the bar anytime before 8 p.m. We don’t go out often and when we do, it’s hard to tear George away from friends he seldom sees.
So friends gathered and merriment was had. At about 8:30 I broke down and ordered a burger. I will tell you that it was delicious and I didn’t the miss the planned supper for one moment. Not at all. It was nice to order something and not worry if I had the ingredients and the time and patience to make a meal.
The leftovers definitely will wait for another day
