I admit, I don't have any big food plans for the next few days... we'll see what opportunities present themselves to me.... but one thing I know for sure is I'm NOT going to eat any more of that Crispy Chicken Salad with Pickles and Lima Beans! I mean, I *want* to eat it still, but I went a bit out of control there!
