Great minds think alike. I didn't know whether Mr. Froggie made a grocery run today (he works out of a home office), but I knew I wanted a few things, so I made a detour to the grocery store on the way home. It was driving me nuts that I was out of canned tuna and canned salmon, crackers, and meat. On a weeknight, I normally don't want dinner, or just something really light, especially if I've eaten lunch.

Turns out Mr. Froggie did go pick up a few things but none of them were what I bought. I finally found some sort of crackers, but really wanted Wasa rye crisps. Shop Rite has them, but Kings doesn't, anymore. Got some asparagus because it looked good, and some celery, because I really like a little crunch in my tuna or crab salad. Canned salmon is best for croquettes or cakes.

We've been eating vegetarian all week, which isn't necessarily bad, but I really did want to get some meat, with an eye toward grilling it later in the week. Got a nice small pork loin. They're usually so big that it was a bonus to find a small one. Plus pork is cheap. The meat selection on a Wednesday night was pretty slim, but I found a couple of nice looking filets mignon and a sirloin that's big enough for both of us.

The salmon looked excellent, but I only buy fish if I'm going to cook it the same evening. I knew Mr. Froggie was talking this morning about making either one larger loaf of sourdough or a smaller one after separating off some for pizza. Glad I didn't buy the salmon. A batch of tomato sauce was simmering away on the stove when I walked in. Pizza it was. Homemade pizza is great--and has a lot less grease than anything you might order for delivery. Maybe we can grill fish over the weekend.

We both actually enjoy cooking. It's sort of nice when we both pitch in unless the dish happens to be one of our particular specialties. Osso buco and pies are my specialties. Mr. F is great at pancakes and breakfast. Division of labor is a good thing.
