Wyogirl, I am right there with you! I love cooking for others, too, but some nights it's great just to have yourself to think about :-) It's so much more flexibility. My dinner last night was all from leftovers from bits and pieces over the week. It wouldn't have been enough tor more than just me, but it was so fabulous! The tomato & pepper were from the garden, both were in halves from a meal earlier in the week. The feta and mushrooms were from a different meal, and we always have walnuts in the refrigerator. The shrimp was from a purchase made in anticipation of NYE (Martin's had an amazing sale, so we stocked up now on frozen shrimp, and I bought a few extra for my weekend to myself!). Tossed it all together with EVOO, some lime & zest, and it was a meal that used up a lot of leftovers :-)
DH is going to be jealous :-)
