I'm only here for nine more days and starting to get worried that I won't be able to eat everything (first world problems).
I'm working on one of eight beers leftover from the weekend. Three of them are barleywine that DH bought, and I question the wisdom in drinking any of those on a weeknight, or more than one on a weekend. This beer might just go up by the apartment mailboxes with a "FREE" sign, but it's fancy shit and I hate to give it away!
My house guest left a box of green tea that I gave away to a co-worker today (I have a nicer container of green tea I'll bring home, but my suitcase capacity is limited)
Big batch of chili is going in the Instant Pot with a package of ground beef an onion, beans and two cans of tomatatoes. That will be lunches the next two days, and I'll pretty much eat nothing else over the weekend.
Next week will be more of a beef curry type stew using a butternut squash, frozen peas and pearl onions and can of coconut milk. Much of the remaining rice can be eaten with that.
Still have eggs, fancy cheeses (can come home in suitecase), nuts (ditto) and the veggies I bought yesterday (green onions, salad, bell peppers, avocados, canned tuna/sardines/kippers. I've done a pretty good job on the oils and spices I brought with me though, so I should have some space to bring home the less perishable things.
Crap, there are three sausages left in the fridge too! They're uncooked, so I think I'll take them out of their casings and cook up breakfast sausage patties or make a fritatta with the eggs or something.
Apparently I over-bought on the protein. It seemed the first 3 weeks I was here, I was constantly running out of everything and spending a shit-ton at the grocery store, then suddenly, I had way too much despite making smaller shopping trips. Kind of baffling how that works, but there it is. I think partly it's because I was doing Whole30 at first, and then decided to add back in rice and beans to reduce food costs, and that really stretched out all the other ingredients. Welp, no excuses for going out to eat at all before I leave!
