I forgot to add that I made more refrigerator dill pickles on Wednesday. Our dill is gone from the garden, but we froze a bunch of it to use.

I made regular chicken salad with the other half of the rotisserie chicken I used for the pasta salad. The carcass went into the freezer for stock.

I canned 2 quarts and 4 pints of tomato relish this evening, and all 6 sealed.

Leftovers from yesterday.

I roasted a chicken on Thursday, which we bought at a good price at the local grocery on Tuesday. I think that they sometimes sell rotisserie ready chickens that they end up not roasting. We had it with the remainder of the stir-fry. It was a busy day for us, as we decided to re-arrange an area of our living room that has never looked right. That also meant removing Annie's favorite chair, which was not in good condition, and that has caused her some anxiety, as she does not like change, and on top of that, we were running the vacuum cleaner. The new area looks great, and Annie has been consoled with some chicken. We are trying to get her to adopt a different chair, but right now, she is ignoring it, so I moved her mat next to the desk.

I had fresh chicken salad tonight.

Last night I cooked some ground beef with a diced potato and made tacos with it. Made a side of green beans, carrot and sauteed mushrooms. Tonight will be the same except the veggie will be sugar snap peas and carrot.

We had Oven Crisp Fish and Chips and Dill Tartar Sauce, along with frozen mixed vegetables for dinner on Friday. Scott and I have been cleaning for the last few days, as his daughter and her fiancé are arriving tomorrow, and on Monday, his younger son, his wife, and their two little ones will arrive for the week. We have not yet tried hosting two groups here at the same time, so we will see how it works. It will be the first time that we have seen the youngest grandson, born in February.

I had an open faced turkey sandwich on an English muffin with a little mayo, arugula and Monterey Jack cheese melted under the broiler. I wasn't feeling well last Sunday, so I bought some Thomas' muffins on sale - I tried the sourdough and they tasted more like Thomas' used to taste, not ushy like the regular ones do now - I was pleasantly surprised. I still want to make more myself when I can ever find some time

I got Diane a hot roast beef sandwich (bread, meat, mashed potatoes, gravy) from a local restaurant, because she's having some issues with stuff like seeds in breads getting stuck in the socket from her tooth extraction last week.

I'll have some kind of sandwich, I guess.

Today I made pulled pork from a Boston butt and it was so good.Just had a sandwich with pickles.

I made chicken salad for dinner on Saturday, which we had on four Whole Wheat/Rye/Semolina Buns from the freezer. It was a fast dinner, after a round trip to Indianapolis to pick up my bonus daughter and her fiancé. That was around five hours of driving, made longer due to the highway around Kokomo being closed on our side, so we had to drive through Kokomo on the way down but were able to drive around it on the way home.
