      Dinner tonight was easy -- frozen breaded fish fillets, frozen potato puffs, and cole slaw that I did make. This is another meal on our "winter menu".

      I also made a cup of boiled cider, using a liter of fresh made apple cider.

        Your chocolate covered cherries sounds good Mike,I've never tried that but that 48 yr. old KA sounds amazing,you sure got your moneys worth in that one.

        Tonight we had fried cubed pork,thickened potatoes and green Italian beans.

          The KA was a wedding present, actually. It has held up very well.

          I've never made chocolate covered cherries before, but I've made fondant and we made several types of covered chocolates in Chocolate School.

          I plan to make some of them using a little invertase (it helps liquefy the filling) and some without, they should still partially liquefy, becomimg more of a soft cream filling.

          I will also be making some chocolate batons to put in chocolate croissants and making a bunch of chocolates for our granddaughter's Advent calendar.

            Dinner tonight was a quick change of plans as my husband's tummy was acting up. So I had a very small bowl of leftover tomato soup, smoked gouda on sesame crackers, pea pods with Ranch dressing, a big fat green grapes.

              I made a small pot of chili. One quart for the freezer and one bowlful for my lunch.

                  For Friday’s dinner, I made Maple Glazed Pork Tenderloin, a favorite recipe of ours from ATK. We have been seeing some good deals lately on pork tenderloin, and I have another in the freezer. I also made roasted Queen squash, to which I added some cooked red bulgur. The squash I cut was one where two had developed and not separate—conjoined twins, if you will—I did one half, with its two sections for us tonight, and I will do the other half tomorrow. It was somewhat bitter, so tomorrow, I’ll skip the bulgur and after the initial roasting, brush with maple syrup.

                      Tonight we had the last of the smoked chicken and I made baked beans and potato salad to go with it.

                        Dinner tonight was strip steaks on the grill, squash, and baked potato. We have quite a bit of steak leftover, so it will be on the menu, in some other form, in a couple of nights.
