Meal No. 1469: Patty Melts


What a gorgeous final day of January! I was glad I could get outside a bit today, even though the blustery breezes made it feel considerably colder than the mid-60s. What an end of January, though, and I say: good riddance. Let's get into the dark doldrums of February and then proceed to get past wintertime.

Ah, but this January 31st blog post is actually a report on a meal from the first day of this past week: Monday. So read on, won't you?


With a bit of ground beef left over from the previous night's bacon-wrapped meatloaf, I decided to keep it simple and return to an easy favorite: sourdough patty melts. They were just the ticket on that Monday snow day, when I didn't have to work since schools were not in session.
