I'm back on the road. We're taking this weekend kind of slow so that we can ease into things. See, we're still on guaranteed pay ($500/wk minimum) and the way our load turned out to be structured makes it next to impossible to grab enough miles this weekend to top it. So, we can either run our asses off and make minimum, or we can take it easy (lots of time on this load) and make... minimum.
Besides, I'm trying to fight off a nasty head cold.
For those who are curious, I will not divulge my location, route, destination, or load info while I am actually under the load. This is for the safety of my cargo, my teammate and (most importantly) me. I'll talk about this load later, though it's really nothing special.
I will talk about food, however. We have figured out a few good recipes for good eating. In fact, once we bought our two lunchbox ovens, a whole new world of possibilities opened up to us. And after spending the first run eating cold sandwiches, it was very welcome.
Excellent food choices that we found:
- canned soup. The chunky kind. Don't skimp here.
- Hot sub sandwiches. Wrap in foil, cook for 30 minutes. Yum.
- Baked potatoes. Hell yeah!
- Chicken breasts. Wrap in foil, season, add a little butter.
- Hot Pockets. Believe it or not, the lunchbox cooker actually does these well.
