We had chicken thighs, baked potato, and roasted squash for dinner. We got not even one snowflake out of the snow storm, so had planned to cook the chicken on the grill. However, my husband discovered the dials on the grill set to "high" and an empty propane tank, so I cooked the chicken on the stove.
I made arepas today. They are not very pretty, but taste excellent. I chopped up 1 cup of whole kernel corn (canned, drained) to add to the batter; and I think this adds a lot to the flavor, although fresh would be even better. After they were cooked on the griddle, I put shredded mozzarella between two of them for lunch.

I'm sorry to learn Cass has passed. I do hope his last days were peacful and full of wonderful memories of his life in various kitchens. He was a wealth of information and so generous with helping us when we needed it.
We had kielbase with peppers and onions on fresh burger buns - we haven't had these for ages.
I made burger buns today. I used 1 cup of bread flower and 3 cups of AP. They rose higher than any I've made for 10 years!
I made a big pot of venison stew for my husband to take to a pot luck, but held back a bowl for my dinner, and more for our dinner tomorrow night.
We had shrimp alfredo on farfalle with broccoli.
Today I baked 2 dozen of the molasses cookies I mixed, scooped, and froze in December.
Tonight we had Greek-style chicken thigh, carrots, and cauliflower salad.
I made cheesecake today. I used a regular sized recipe, but divided the batter in half for two 7" springform pans. They both had a chocolate graham cracker crust. One filling was vanilla swirled with frozen raspberries from last summer's crop. It's in the freezer for later, and I will put a chocolate ganache on it when we're ready to eat it. The other one is chocolate with chopped candied orange peel swirled into it. We've cut into it, and I didn't get much of an orange taste from the chunky little peels.
I had a tuna sandwich and my husband had a roast pork sandwich.
I cooked a pork loin roast, with potatoes, carrots, and onions in the same pot. I made au jus with boiled cider, chicken broth, and Herbes de Province.
For lunch today, I heated up leftover bulgogi bibambap, and decided next time I make it, I will double my recipe so I have more leftovers. We had tuna fish sandwiches and potato chips for dinner.
For dinner tonight we had frozen, breaded fish fillets, mashed butternut squash from the freezer, and corn-bean salad.
