Saturday night, we had salad. We were having a power down weekend, because we both spend far too much time online, so we had scheduled salad. At some point, we decided that the prohibition against using the stove wasn’t really what we were after this weekend (which was getting us offline) so I used the stove to make up a couple of boiled eggs, and the toaster oven to turn the last hamburger bun into croutons (that may sound weird, but these buns are much heftier than what you would buy in a store. It made fantastic croutons.) The salad had local hydroponic lettuce, local hothouse tomatoes and green peppers, organic carrots, and local eggs and cheese, and absolutely hit the spot Saturday night. Tossed salad is one of our favorite things, and we’ll be eating more of it as the weather warms up.

Sunday night, we did homemade pizza. Easy, tasty, and just what was called for. I ate an organic Florida orange along with mine.
