Food Truck Friday: Lobster Roll

image

I started my lunch break today with a run to the court records office, and when the nice guy there didn’t charge me for my copies, I decided to take the money that I’d saved* and put it toward a lobster roll from Smack Shack.  I usually try to go out of my way to eat meat on Fridays during Lent to stick it to the Catholics (Hi, Grandpa and Grandma!), but when it’s sunny and over 70-degrees in Minnesota in March and there’s a food truck selling lobster rolls a block from your office, you quickly get your priorities straight.

*my money, not a client’s

This Week

A glimpse at my week…

The Valentine’s Day Wild game was my idea; the amazing seats were all Matt.

Second row seats mean pucks flying into the glass four feet in front of your face and reading the lips of players who say totally filthy things to one another.

Post-game dessert: chocolate éclairs from Rustica.

My new toy/early birthday present to myself

Our household of two has gone through about a million tissues and a thousand decongestants in the last few days, so I made a big pot of tomato-basil soup.  Simple and delicious, especially with a grilled cheese or a bagel with sharp cheddar and apple slices.

Bánh mì fillings.

Fresh bread, freshly pickled vegetables, tender bits of pork, and copious amounts of sriracha.

Bacon, cheddar, and chive strata for the weekend.

My Monday

Donating sangre, donating unnecessary goods, strolling through IKEA, picking up coffee and éclairs for my valentine, and lunching on the go with an olive roll.
