I made those delicious Chicken Breasts the other day (see that post here) but only ate 1 of the 2. It really is hard cooking for just me--well me and my cat that is! Turns out that she loved that chicken so much she would not touch her Boars Head Maple Turkey Breast which I buy only for her! Spoiled ya think?

I was glaring at that 2nd breast wondering how I could use it. I decided to slice it diagonally and use it to add to a salad and for sandwiches.

For the sandwich (lunch) I took a couple of slices of American cheese and a couple of slices of the chicken breast and 1 pita round. Put a small amount of the White Chocolate Raspberry Honey Mustard from The Cocoa Exchange. I then ripped up a slice of the turkey breast for Baby-and proceeded back to my bedroom where my computer resides.

Baby IGNORED the turkey breast which she normally gobbles up--and stood there glaring at me and threatening my computer keyboard with her paw!! OK I relented--I went back in the kitchen and ripped up a slice of the chicken for her (without the cheese or mustard nether of which she likes.

Then at around 12:30 the wind started blowing--by 1:00 the hurricane was upon us. I normally have a very brave cat--this time--she took one look out the window-her eyes got very wide-then there was a power outage-and she did a sprint to another room! She did eventually calm down--but she and I had NO POWER from then until Wednesday night at around 7 pm!! No a/c--no computer.

Thank heavens for matches (they were old so I could not get it to light by striking the cover) and lighters and a partially gas stove. I lit the match with the lighter then turned on the gas to one burner so that I could make a cup of coffee!!

For dinner--I used the open bag of Butter Lettuce, some cherry tomatoes and pre sliced mushrooms-I added some of the chicken. I added the White Chocolate Lemon Peppercorn Vinaigrette. And yes, In addition to her cat food--Baby insisted on a slice or two of the chicken!

Both the sandwich and the salad were delicious! Next up--a Full Day of NO Power--I will hopefully get that up tomorrow!
