drylok on cinderblock and meal list thursday

I've been a busy bee and it's not by choice, man.  Eric returned from his 4-day mancation last week but we immediately rolled back into Basement Work, otherwise known as UGH, LET'S JUST MOVE.  We're partially-refinishing our basement with our own bare hands, which just might have been the worst idea ever.  And I'm pretty sure I'm the one who came up with it.  Right now we're in Drylok® Hell and for the last two nights I've been doing all kinds of man-work, sweating in a t-shirt and boxers, covered in paint, and even listening to the Cards game on the radio.  Apparently all I'm missing are testicles.

Manual labor is the worst IMO.  Next time I'll suggest that we go all female and just write a dang check to get the work done.

Rant over, meal list below, recipes here.  As a reminder, these recipes will make enough food to last 2 meals for 2+ people.

Mexican Lasagna with Sliced Bell Peppers and Tomatoes (served with ranch dressing for dipping, natch)
Pasta Alfredo with Roasted Vegetables
Turkey Tenderloin with Oven-Roasted Potatoes and Sautéed Zucchini (This one is a bit of a cheat, using pre-seasoned tenderloins.  Don't judge.)
BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwiches and Sweet Potato Fries
