Lunch: will be leftover pigs-in-a-blanket and a very basic green salad with red wine vinaigrette, maybe also a piece of last night's lemon-dill salmon.

Dinner: will be meatballs in red sauce, garlic bread, and steamed broccoli.

Snacks: proooobably popcorn with this awesome garlic-Parmesan seasoning I found last week, also an apple or a plum.
