For dinner tonight I slow-roasted a beef pot roast with some small red potatoes and carrots and mushrooms to go with it in the pan. I also put some dried onion soup and water on everything and then also seasoned it lightly in the pan so that it could make its own gravy while it was cooking.

We had some chocolate cake for dessert.
 
A peanut-butter-and-honey…thing. I’m currently drinking a cup of coffee. I probably should have gone for tea, as I’m already a bit anxious as it is (bracing for bad news about a job), and I’m not sure the caffeine will help. At least coffee isn’t as bad as Monster, which used to be my go-to drink, so I’m doing better…sort of. (At the very least, making coffee is relaxing.)
 
Brreakfast was peanut butter crackers. Lunch and supper was fish (shared with Caspar and LJ).

The rooster I shared the last two years of my life with passed away last Wednesday. His name was Chicky Roo and losing him has hit me pretty hard. I’m in mourning and any mention of chicken makes me cry.
 
Sorry, for your loss again.

Growing up, I had a pet hen named Maggie.

She followed me around like a dog. I remember training her to come for food when I made a series of clucking noises.

Soon after she raised a brood of chicks and guess what, she taught that same clucking noise I taught her to her chicks 🐥 🐣 to alert them to a food source.

Tragically she was killed by the neighbor’s pack of corgis.

I’m so sorry, @lilypadrees and @Sarcelle, I didn’t know. I’ll try to refrain from chicken-related comments in future.

I’m so sorry about Chicky Roo, Lily. :hugs: 😧

May God comfort you during this sad time. ❤️
 
Just ate a snack of chips and grapes. Currently drinking cherry lime La Croix.

Fried chicken,
Greek salad (cucumber, cherry tomatoes, olives and feta cheese), lemon sorbet and chocolate fudge cake.
 
Chicky Roo would come running any time he saw me. I would try to sneak into the laundry room out back and he’d see the door open and come running and clucking happily. He wanted to come in and help me with the laundry. He was so funny and had the most beautiful feathers.

I’d be sitting on the porch and he’d climb up the steps, cluck and climb into my lap. I’ve never known a wild animal to do that. He started doing that after only two weeks of coming into our yard. I didn’t train him or anything. He was determined that he was going to be mine after he figured out that I was the one feeding and watering him. He would peck at the front and back porch doors to be let in. We believe he was someone’s pet before he found his way to our house and into our hearts.

Because of Chicky Roo, I can’t eat chicken anymore. You take care of one and it really makes you see things from a new perspective.

Mama and I still love eggs. But the brands we buy are still on the recall list. Now with Chicky Roo gone, I don’t even want anything with eggs in it.
 
I refused to eat chicken after Maggie was killed. I also hated eggs, meat, milk, butter and honey.

I was a vegan when I was younger until I started having health problems and my mother pushed me to eat animal products. After being no longer vegan, the health problems disappeared.
 
Green salad, vegetable pot pie, tree ripened peaches 🍑 so sweet and juicy, the best part of summer in my opinion, water

Quite a nutritious meal

The vegetables that went into it came to me free, courtesy of a friend and his overproducing organic vegetable garden.

The peaches 🍑 also were from the same friend.
