 May 25, 2022 Lunch - Cobb Salad and Egg and Sausage sandwich Dinner - Chicken Corn and Curry Chowder and Pasta de Suzette

Today was a travel day and food on travel days is usually minimal.

Today was no exception.  I ate a bowl of Raisin Bran with blueberry yogurt and milk for breakfast at the hotel and took a sausage and egg sandwich for later. 

Then we drove to the Oakland Airport to return our car and board our plane.

The rental car people were nice enough to drive to the door of the terminal when they saw how tortured my walking was, which was a big help.

We arrived at our gate at 11:15, an hour before our flight, so I ate the sausage and egg sandwich at noon.

Suzette bought a Turkey and bacon sandwich and Cobb salad for the flight.

In flight I ate most of the salad and Suzette ate most of the sandwich.  The salad and sandwich were $18.00 each and excellent.

The lettuce in the salad was crisp and the blue cheese dressing was thick and filled with bits of cheese.  The bacon and turkey were similar on both the salad and sandwich, so you could tell they were made in the same kitchen.

We arrived in Albuquerque at 3:45 and drove home.

We rested until later in the evening when we became hungry again.

I ate a bowl of the PPI curry flavored corn chowder after mincing a shallot.

Suzette sliced mushrooms and a yellow squash and fetched bacon and spinach from the fridge.

She started a pot of water boiling and boiled a handful of shaped macaroni.

She cut several slices of bacon into lardons and fried it and then added diced yellow squash and mushroom slices and finally spinach.

Suzette also diced about 1/4 cup of fresh mozzarella.

When the pasta was cooked Suzette drained the pasta and then combined the pasta and the sautéed vegetables and tossed it with the mozzarella and a little pasta

I shaved slices of Pecorino/Romano cheese that Suzette crumbled on top of the pasta mixture.

We drank the remaining bit of the two red wines we had opened previously and enjoyed a lovely dinner.

We went to bed at 10:00.
