DSLR Down
Those of you who have been reading my blog for a little while may notice a change in my pictures. I’ve had to go back to using my point and shoot during the last week. My DSLR is out of commission for the time being 🙁
If you follow me on twitter you already know:
I accidentally dropped my camera on Sunday night. The only lens I have for the camera broke and I’m really hoping that the camera body is fine. I’m taking it in to the camera doctor so I will know the full extent of the damage this weekend.
I really, really, really hope it’s just the lens that is busted. I can save up to get a new lens but buying a new camera is out of the question 🙁
Breakfast
I was pleasantly surprised when I got to work and discovered they were handing out free hot chocolate because it was so cold out. Free hot chocolate, yes please!
Lunch
This Freshii soup is quickly becoming one of my favorite lunches. I really need to learn to make my own lemongrass broth (anyone know how?).
Dinner
Yet, again it was another work week day where I didn’t feel like making dinner. I really need to start making meals on the weekends that can be heated up during the week.
Last night we ended up boiling some Mrs’ T’s cheddar and potato pierogies:
Sprinkled with Cajun seasoning for a bit of a kick:
Simple and delicious meal 🙂
Question:
What types of meals do you like to make on the weekends, to heat up during the week?
I could use all the suggestions I can get. Feel free to link to a recipe in the comments.

Fingers crossed for a speedy recovery for your DSLR! I can only dream of owning one myself. It’s point and shoot all the way for me, sadly!

Yuck, sorry about your camera! I hate it when that happens, although my camera is no where close to as nice as yours!
I love perogies. My mom used to buy those exact same ones when I was a kid. I always ate them with sour cream on top. Now for quick meals I do a lot of laded potatoes, egg dishes, and rice with meat and veggies.
Tracey
I need to do a better job of keeping eggs and rice stocked in the kitchen. They really do help out a lot of different meals.

Sorry about your camera 🙁 I hope it’s alright! I’m a major klutz, so I know the sick feeling you speak of veerrrry well. I actually just made eggplant parm last night and was already thinking how it would be perfect to make on the weekend and heat up all week. Once I get the recipe all typed up I’ll post the link here
Tracey
Please do include the link. I would be really interested!

oh no! I hope your camera is ok!!! Free hot chocolate? That is awesome. And pierogies are so yummy. I love them boiled up.
I like to make big batches of chili, soup, pulled meats and pasta bakes to reheat during the week!
Tracey
We always eat pierogies boiled. They are so good with the cajun seasoning!
Pasta bakes are a good idea for heating up during the week. I’m going to need to look up some different ones to make.
Jenna @ Healthy. Happy. Well.
OOOh peirogies look good! Roasted veggies are a good plan ahead meal. You can roast some root veggies like squash, sweet potato etc and have them hanging out in your fridge until you’re ready to eat them =)
Tracey
Oh, that is a good idea. Roasted veggies can be used in lots of dishes.

so sorry to hear about your camera! i hope it’s only the lens and not the whole camera!
soup is one of my fave things to make during the weekends. it heats up quickly and keeps me warm in the freezing temps.
Tracey
Soup is perfect in these cold temps.

Oh so sorry to hear about your DLSR. I drop mine all the time although I didn’t crack a lens I did damage the inside once, but it was repairable so crossing fingers for you too lovely. Loving that soup again 😉
Tracey
I think I’m forming a little addiction to the soup 😉
