Thursday

I had a hankering for roast beef the way my mom cooked it. I've put off buying an eye roast for several weeks now, but I finally found one (2.6 lbs) under $20, so I splurged. It will have served 3 adults two nights of dinners (with mashed potatoes, peas, and a salad and tonight with the hot roast beef sandwiches), 2 lunch sandwiches (eaten w/ raw celery and apple slices) and 2 beef bowls w/ gravy. I think I've made it go as far as possible.

Your apple cider-cherry kombucha sounds so good, and so does the rice pudding! I have never had kombucha but I love apple cider and anything with cherries/cherry juice.
