This past week was our first week cooking dinner at our apartment. We went to the store and had everything planned for the week.
Monday - we were prepared to cook a pre-seasoned lamb, with a few sides.
Minor glitch - as we go to turn on the oven - it is not working. The house man comes in and says yup, it's broken. I will send the technician tomorrow.
We go out to the pub to eat.
Tuesday - oven is still broken - we decided to cook ground beef in pasta sauce. Really easy and can be done on the stove top.
Minor glitch - we bought ground veal - not beef.
It was better than the pub again.
Wednesday - we are still without an oven so we have chicken breast, rice and gravy with veggies on the side.
Minor glitch - no measuring cups so we eyeball the rice and water. Rice is mushy.
The gravy did save the meal and made the rice much better!
Thursday - still no oven and no date to fix in sight.
We bought a box kit for tacos and it was 100% a success. You have to love that Mexican food is our best meal of the week! My favorite!
Friday we ditched the cooking and went out. Here's hoping they fix the oven for next week!
