I love Aldi's too.

Tonight I had a hotdog with slaw and I had some oranges getting to ripe so I peeled and cut them up for a snack.

Wednesday night's dinner was Crispy Oven Fish and Chips with Dill Tartar Sauce. We also had microwaved fresh broccoli. I had planned to make coleslaw, but I got caught up in other activities and forgot to do it.

Aldi's has good prices on packages of frozen salmon and cod. I buy my olive, avocado, and canola oils there. My husband likes their oats. They are also a good place to buy logs of goat cheese. I had to train my husband to let me have time to look, since they have various specialty items, which is how I found that pasta.

We have a fairly new Aldi's on the mainland - I haven't been yet, but plan to go on Monday when I'm over there for a doctor's appointment. We had a Lidl (Aldi's competition) in our town in Ireland -we loved shopping there - good cheese selection, breads and snacks - our problem with the produce was that it was large amounts like Sam's- we did have a green grocer though which was really nice.

Our dinner on Wednesday was salmon, fresh green beans, and Greek salad. Our meal routine is crazy these days, due to making maple syrup - as our plans depend so much on Mother Nature, and dinner might mean cooking and eating at 9 p.m. This was a very nice, more typical meal for us, not a thrown together food from the freezer, or casseroles, or leftovers.

Tonight I had a premade dinner from Publix, Tuscan chicken and roasted carrots , it was Ok .

I made coleslaw on Thursday, using an organic cabbage that I found at Kroger on Monday. We had it with the remaining pecan coated pork chops and roasted sweet potato chunks.

[Mike Nolan]

I picked a small (49 grams) tomato today, sliced it up really thin and we both had it on sandwiches.

This was definitely a Defiant tomato and was the best hydroponic tomato I've grown so far. There are a lot of Defiants on the vines, and while they aren't getting much larger than this one was, they'll be tasty.

I picked up a rotisserie chicken at Sams for supper tonight.

[BakerAunt]

I made split pea soup on Friday, using a meaty hambone from the freezer. Of course, today's high temperature was in the mid-70 Fs, which is not exactly pea soup weather, but at least it was cooler in the house. Scott will not make a fire in the woodstove tonight. I am hoping for cooler spring weather, which is better for the plants.

I made half a cheese sandwich on Will's sourdough as I came home from work and made a batch of chicken salad so I could take some as my contribution to hospitality for our church's house tour.

[Joan Simpson]

Last night I made macaroni salad to take to poker game it turned out really good. Tonight I had a peanut butter and jam sandwich, just what I wanted.Glad you're getting some tomatoes Mike..Nice!

I had sloppy joes last night on freshly baked buns and a side of green beans and carrot.

[BakerAunt]

We had more of the split pea soup for dinner tonight. That let me spend the afternoon reading while it was raining outside.

I made quesadillas.
