I made venison stew for my husband to take to a pot-luck. I had a chicken breast and cauliflower salad.
Mike, that's how my peas behaved back when I grew them in my big garden. They'd keep producing, as long as I kept picking, but only up to a certain point. Then, they just turned brown and died; reached their life expectancy, I guess.
I've not tried growing spinach in the Aerogarden, but it doesn't do as well under the gro lights or in planters on the deck as lettuce does. I think it is not a 'cut and come again' type of growth.
I just put in my order for seeds of delicata squash, yellow summer squash, and what I think might be the honey nut squash BakerAunt loves so much. Yesterday I planted more lettuce and spinach in the sunroom.
We had burgers grilled on the deck (on an inch of fresh sleet/ice) and fries.
Aaron, I have visions of a huge field of little brown and white eggs rolling around. That's free-range, right?
Joan, you did hit the jackpot! Here, eggs are 4.89/dozen (down from 5.89) and 2% milk is the same, 4.89/gallon. I need to shop on Wednesday, and I'm not looking forward to it.
Tonight we grilled ribs on the deck, and also had roasted veggies and cauliflower salad. Three nights ago it was -17, and today it was mid-30s.
I baked 2 loaves of rye bread today.
We had chicken salad sandwiches, on garlic and herb bread.
Mike, your French onion soup looked delicious -- that is what I was expecting when I ordered it at a restaurant last week! And yes, we watch the Mt. Washington weather closely when there are warnings. Life is different up there!
I made those Chewy Peanut Butter Cookies today, but added chocolate chips. They are really good, and I'll be making them again. I doubled the recipe and put half into the freezer.
We're up to 5* now, and it should be into the low 30s in another day or so. It was -17 this morning. So I made more comfort food -- shepherd's pie for dinner. We went out to lunch yesterday, and I ordered French onion soup. A huge disappointment - no slice of bread, just a small sprinkling of shredded cheese on top of the soup. However, the broth was excellent, and there were a decent amount of onions.
Those look wonderful, Aaron! "practice makes perfect" is working great for you!
We had chili and hot dogs tonight.
For dinner this Wednesday evening, we had venison liver, roasted veggies (parsnips, carrots, Brussels sprouts) and a green salad. We'll be eating comfort foods for the next few nights, with the forecast of -12 to -17*.
Dinner tonight was a seafood casserole (shrimp, lobster, and "chowder fish" which is the trimmings from various cuts of fish in the seafood department) on rice and cole slaw.
Breakfast for dinner tonight: sausages, blueberry pancakes, and maple syrup.
