We finished off the potato soup for supper tonight.
Diane is making oatmeal-date-raisin spice cookies today.
We had the Swiss steak with mashed potatoes.
I'm planning to make Swiss steak again for tonight. I will work on posting the recipe I'm using (with my changes) here.
We had mac and cheese tonight, Diane's got a sore throat and didn't want anything with rough edges.
Harvey's Bristol Cream Sherry is a deeply rich sherry, Taylor is OK for a domestic product, but doesn't have that intense flavor profile and I don't think it is quite as sweet, though I can't find a sugar content for it online. I prefer a dry sherry for cooking rather than a cream sherry.
I had some potato soup and the leftover pork chop from the other day, Diane had chicken noodle soup.
It actually got above freezing here today for the first time in what seems like two weeks.
We had tacos for supper.
As kids, we used to use the meat grinder to grind up meat, onions and potatoes for corned beef hash. I think we've got a meat grinder like that from some auction but I don't know where it is and I doubt we've ever used it.
My wife noted that the chicken salad recipe is best with white meat, so I did a 9 1/2" chicken pot pie, but I've still got a good sized bowl of chicken to do something else with.
We had baked pork chops in orange juice and brown sugar again. This time with boneless chops.
We had broccoli to go with it, and a little fresh bread.
I'm making semolina bread again today.
I'm roasting a bunch of chicken leg quarters then will make stock with the bones, not sure what I'll do with the meat, maybe chicken salad.
Once I've got stock made, I plan to use it for potato leek soup for supper tonight.
We had hot dogs tonight, done under the broiler, with assorted toppings. Not quite Chicago dogs, but as good as we're gonna get here.
I made peanut butter cookies today.
