On Tuesday I made one pot mac and cheese (recipe from The Hill Billy Kitchen on youtube). Yesterday my neighbor threw some, I mean gave me some tomatoes so I made sauce with them and had roasted pork tenderloin from the freezer and brussels sprouts and leftover mac and cheese. Tonight I will have some more pork tenderloin, pasta with tomato sauce and a veg to be determined.

Mike, that's terrible about what happened to your cat, some people can be so cruel.

Joan and CWCdesign, I'm glad to hear that you're safe and have power back. Modern society is so dependent on electricity that it's become a necessity of life.

[RiversideLen]

Hope you stay out of harms way, Joan.

I'm going to have leftover pork loin, broccoli and leftover potato.

[RiversideLen]

I'd be interested too.

[RiversideLen]

Maybe Contact Rival about it. You can even send them pictures.

BA, I think that might be ok but I'm not sure. I was looking at slow cookers online and saw they make disposable liners. I wonder if that might be a solution?

[RiversideLen]

I made a pork loin roast, roasted potato and brussle sprouts.

[RiversideLen]

I would shy away from it. There's a reason why it has a finish in the first place.

Anyway, BA, you got me thinking about slow cookers. If only I had more storage space.

[RiversideLen]

I had leftover pizza and a salad.

[RiversideLen]

I was thinking the same thing as Mike. I think the plan needs to be rethought.

[RiversideLen]

You're welcome, Joan, I hope you enjoy it.

For dinner I baked a pizza and had it with a salad.

Wishing you a speedy recovery, ItalianCook.

Your bread looks delicious, Joan!

Late in the afternoon I decided to make a pumpkin cake. I made a half recipe in my small Bundt cake pan. I cut the oil in half, subbing additional pumpkin for the oil. I've made this cake before, but its been a long time. The recipe calls for mini chocolate chips, which I added but also added raisins. I soaked the raisins in a little rum to plump them up, I should have started that sooner. I used the leftover soaking rum to make a rum glaze. Overall, it came out pretty good.

If you're interested in vintage, going back before we were born, there is a guy on YouTube who has a large collection, and he makes dishes from the books. If the book is old enough, he has to research what some of the terms and measurements meant back then. Sometimes the recipe is just a list of ingredients trusting that the cook knew how to cook and put it all together. He also has some old drink books and sometimes he makes cocktails from it. I find it fairly interesting.

If anyone is interested in it, the channel is Glen and Friends.

On Thursday I was hungry when I came across a flyer for a nearby Italian restaurant, so I ordered a breaded chicken dinner (2 pieces of boneless breast, limp fries and slaw that wasn't worth the effort) and a cheese pizza. I had two dinners, one breakfast and one lunch from it.

Tonight will be rotisserie chicken from the freezer, a salad and either potato or pasta.
