I had that kind of lunch today - A little bit of lonely leftover caramelized onions, with some lonely leftover rice, joined by a couple of eggs and one lonely tomato and wala - yummy resourcefulness.

And the solitary m&m too:). Love what you did as usual and i definitely need to get some booze in this recipe the next time around. Got a call Friday night that Mr. BU has mono so left for Boston yesterday morning. We will probably withdraw himfor the entire semester as of Monday. For now we are holed up in a hotel with him for the weekend to give his roommate a break. Never a dull moment. PS- just read your bday post and that cake is OFF THE CHARTS.
