My Lobster Runneth Over

The babies actually slept for 8 hours last night! It was amazing. Unfortunately, Nicky woke up at 2:30 crying. Then I kept waking up ever hour when the babies made the slightest sound because I expected them to get up. Sigh. But we now have hope for a good night's sleep in our future.

Last night, we had the special dinner which was langostino and cheese grits. Really. Langostino. The cheese sauce was a little runny but quite tasty. Looking ahead at the menu, however, I see lobster ravioli later on. I'm a little surprised at two lobster/crab dishes in one pickup. Especially since one is a special dinner. I would suggest swapping this special dinner with one in another week to spread out the shellfish. Anyway, you may be a little leery of shellfish and grits but they mesh well together. I did put a little bit of salt on it to bring out the flavors just a little more.

Today's lunch was not one of my favorites. Roasted tomato and basil soup. Once again, my spice aversion kicks in. It was too spicy for me. So I'll be making a substitution for that next cycle. Maybe doubling up on the chicken alfredo melts which I'm looking forward to.
