The Finer Things in Life

After picking up our first local(ish) Azure Standard order and restocking some other produce, the fridge is full again!  I’m afraid a pantry challenge isn’t terribly challenging with all this good food, but if I remember my original goals of organizing and using what we have, we’re still doing alright!  Let’s take a peek into the freezers later this week, shall we?

Last week’s fried rice got bumped by beef fajitas when I realized how big my package of round steak was.  Feels great to get two meals (plus leftovers) out of one package of meat.  We still have leftover pork chops, so the fried rice will move to this week.
