Jan 18: Toasted baguette; Dinner out

Lunch

A rather simple lunch using the leftover baguette from yesterday, toasted. Add some cream cheese, tomato and salami for a tasty lunch.

• 1/4 of the $2.69 baguette went to each serve or 68c
• One tomato was divided in half for 29c a serve
• 1/6 of the pack of salami went into a serve: 92c
• The tub of cream cheese is $3.99, or about 67c a serve

Lunch today was okay, and cost $2.56 a serve.

Dinner

The first time eating out this month: Gordon Birsch for our regular get together with a friend over beers. Tonight we were in the mood for a burger – the first burger of the year:

Gastro Pub

Bacon jam, housemade bleu cheese sauce, mixed greens, tomato, gorgonzola cheese and caramelized onions atop our fresh steakburger

It was a little messy, but really very good. $12.25 on the menu, but with tip and tax closer to $16. We’re still enjoying the festbier – one of our favorite seasonal beers there.

Our all time favorite burger has no steak, substituting a portobello mushroom for the protein. We should make it for you some time.
