Batching it today and seem to have fallen into a sandwich mode.

For some reason I've always thought you were female. I don't know
why.

Breakfast: English muffin sandwich, with deli ham, a fried egg,
lettuce leaves from the garden.

Lunch: BLT. The best of all sandwiches.

Supper: The first two sandwiches were so good I'm thinking of making
a grilled cheese to accompany the bowl of pinto beans that are
scheduled. Along with a salad. That'll be a lot of bread for the
day, but it's not as though I do this often. -aem

I did grilled cheese and tomato soup for lunch 🙂

I call it footloose and looking for trouble.

My lunch today was sliced turkey, jack cheese, lettuce, and avocado with
a touch of mayo on oat bread. It was excellent.

It sounds wonderful, especially if the avocado was decent.
I've been popping cherry tomatoes all day and for the last week --
stem-on "cocktail" tomatoes have been on sale for $2/bag (I don't know
the weight) and they taste more like a tomato than anything else this
time of year. They're usually $2.89-$3.29+. Makin' hay while the sun
shines.

Most of the time I'd probably call it "Bliss - some time to myself" <g>

I don't know that it's wrong, I've just never heard it used in
reference to a woman. <shrug>

All I know is that when Rich is home without me, people used to bring
him meals, and when I was home without him, I still cooked. 🙂 Of
course, they knew I could cook, and nobody had ever tasted his food.

I think it's a common misconception among non-foodies that men can't cook,
as much so as the misconception that all women *do* cook. 'tain't
necessary so.

I don't know anybody that thinks either of those things. Do you,
really? -aem

In my experience, it's mostly been the women who couldn't cook and
the men who did. Even in pretty traditional marriages. I would talk
food and recipes and techniques with the husbands. It doesn't seem that
too many parents are teaching their daughters to cook, and not too many
moms are at home to teach either sons or daughters to cook anymore.
Even when a mom is at home, in our circles, it is just as likely that
her husband can/does cook. Like I said, people had tasted my cooking,
and nobody really had had Rich's, so I guess they assumed I did it all
and he couldn't. Or that since I was normally at home, I was used to
making meals for the kids and me, and since he was normally at work he
wasn't. It wasn't anything nefarious, just funny.

Ranee

Among people in my office, yes. Among personal friends, no.

I would just go ahead and say batching it. No reason
we can make the word co-ed. Lots of words that used to
be gender-specific are now used in a gender-neutral manner.
