close call

We almost ate spaghetti. But we held firm and had lentil bean soup.
It was pretty simple. Chopped up an onion and some garlic (both from
the CSA) and sauteed in olive oil. Added 3 carrots and 1 potato (also
from the CSA) and let that cook for a few minutes. Then I added some
salt, some ginger, and some cumin, and let that cook. Finally, I
added 1.5 cups of dry lentil beans and a ton of water. Let that cook
for a good while. We had some bread on the side and some broccoli.

Bee and Frankie didnt realize what they were getting themselves into
when we made this pact. I think getting out of this rut might be
better for them than for us. They both ate the lentils tonight, so we
were proud of them. We did let them have some leftover spaghetti with
the lentils though.
