Leftover Bonanza

Work was super slow, so a quick check on the weather indicated that it was cold (33 degrees) there was no wind (that I could feel in the backyard) so I set out to do a decent walk at 3pm-ish. It was much colder out than I thought, the wind was a little more windy than I thought when I evaluated things. 

Ugh. 

I didn't cut it down short even though I wanted to. Pushed through. The playlist was a little on the slower side so no running. Doug and Geoff took Toffee to the dog park, and because I knew I'd fall short on steps overall for the day. While they were gone, I did more inside steps, then went through the refrigerator to find all the leftovers. 

We have a lot of leftovers. 

Geoff's meals usually are to feed 4 people, sometimes we eat it all but sometimes there are leftovers. They go into the fridge, and well, sometimes they are forgotten.

But not tonight.

I ate 2 of the pork chops from the other night's meal. Doug had a bowl of turkey soup and some orzo pasta that was left over from his restaurant meal last weekend. Geoff had a bowl of chili and then some mashed potatoes under some chili, which never occurred to him. So he was blown away. It was kind of cute.

There are still leftovers. I think I'm going to make a shepherds pie with the potatoes, and some ground beef. I just need gravy. 

Tonight was our office holiday party. I didn't feel like going, 2 hours there and probably a hotel for the night. I wanted to be home here. I'm not in a festive or party mood. I have a little bit of regret but not really. Parties are nice though. Maybe next year. 

Not sure what we're doing this weekend. Allegedly we're getting snow on Saturday but right here, we are not expecting any accumulations. West of us they're getting a foot, east of us probably a couple inches. Kind of weird that we're in a possible no-zone.
