Meal planning is one that the mommy requires all members to contribute in esp this mad writer, being a loony vegetarian. It ain’t easy doing the balancing, structuring and mathematical projections. It’s a weekly exercise: meats, fish, veggies, fruits and metals (𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘣𝘰𝘴 𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘢𝘭𝘢𝘺𝘢, 𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘣𝘰𝘴 𝘯𝘨 𝘴𝘢𝘺𝘰𝘵𝘦, etc.). But not every plan is followed, though. Many times, we think on our palates and underarms. Like a few desserts ago, the master of the kitchen had a meeting that ate up cooking time. The rest of the crew were all hands on deck:

-The girl-sous chef took out a pan-sized pompano out of the freezer, thawed and pan fried it;

-The boy sous-chef prepared a bowl of salad that would challenge Jamie Oliver’s: chopped romaine lettuce, walnuts, sun-dried tomatoes, honey and shaved pecorino cheese;

-The senior busboy set the table with extreme accuracy, a most exhaustive part of the production that deserves recognition here.

And in the spirit of excess, add a previously mommy-prepared dish: sautéed 𝘬𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘬𝘰𝘯𝘨 with tofu in oyster sauce. Fiesta in the house!

With 𝘮𝘢𝘤𝘢𝘱𝘶𝘯𝘰 for dessert, the only thing missing is the brass band. 𝘖𝘭𝘦́!
