Appetizing Muse

My parents spent a week with me in Spokane recently. Here's what we had in the way of meals:

• Hot dogs, barbequed chicken, dumplings, green beans and corn sautéed with sweet onions.

• Chicken salad, spaghetti and meatballs, garlic bread, green salad with olive oil and red wine vinegar dressing.

• Tacos from Jack-in-the-Box, Cup of Noodles.

• Toasted English muffins, grilled T-bone steaks, twice-baked potatoes, and sautéed mushrooms.

• Homemade egg rolls and white rice.

• Sourdough hotcakes, link sausages.

• Dominos Pizza.

As usual, the visits are too brief. Mum and Dad are now home in Utah, and I've returned to my one-meal-a-day routine.
