Joan Simpson.Yes Mike we eat early,since being retired we eat at 4:00,and around 7-8 we have a snack of a bowl of cereal or my husband has cookies and milk.
Dinner here is usually around 6 to 6:30 p.m.
When you are retired everyday is a Saturday and every evening is a friday. Tonight I made another stir fry this time I had it with noodles.
We had take-out tonight, neither one of us felt like cooking.
Hamburger steaks with sauteed onions and fries.
I'm making my lightened up version of my Mom's hamburger stroganoff (with Campbell's Healthy Request Cream of Chicken Soup--the only time I use it), which we will have over brown and mixed rice, which I've started in the rice cooker. We will have a salad, using lettuce from our garden. 🙂
I was so exhausted from wrk n Wednesday, that Will cut up a sheet a full pan of veggies including a couple of Japanese eggplants from our garden. Then I baked them and cooked pasta, so hot dinner that night and then we had it as pasta salad last night.
Tonight I made some chicken salad and I brought home a baguette from work - no time for baking right now
I made some hard boiled eggs, my wife had 2 of them over toast, I used one to make some tuna salad and had that on a tomato. I'll use the rest of the hard boiled eggs in some potato salad for tomorrow. It's best if it sits overnight anyway.
I'm making an Italian sausage and sauteed mushrooms. Will have it with a simple salad of lettuce, tomato and cucumber.
We had brats on split sandwich thins, with red onions and refrigerator pickles I made last week.
I made a big bowl of potato salad, using some of the celery vinegar and the carrot vinegar.
This morning while it was still cool I made salads for dinner -- broccoli, seafood, and a farfelle with spinach, black olives, red onions, Feta and Ranch dressing, and mixed greens with cucumbers, tomatoes, onion, bell pepper and maple vinaigrette.
We had taco salad today.
The steak was disappointing, I think it had been in the freezer too long, I'm throwing the rest of it out.
I keep thinking there's an ingredient missing from my mother's oil-and-vinegar potato salad, but I'm not sure what it is.
It has potatoes, salt, pepper, vinegar, oil, celery, celery seed, onion, and chopped eggs. I don't think it had any mustard in it, that's an ingredient in some oil and vinegar potato salads.
The great-grandmother recipe in my family did include mustard, but I don't think it used vinegar. It was also mashed potatoes and had some chopped lettuce mixed in.
