I made a small pork roast, had it with brown/wild rice blend, cauliflower and carrot. For dessert I had 1/2 of the mini blueberry pie. It came out pretty good even though the crust is on the thin side.

I'm making a chicken burger, mashed potato and cauliflower and carrots.

Thanks Joan, and BA. The problem with making a mini pie is I have full size fingers.

I had a hamburger, mashed potato and cauliflower and carrots. I had the veggie pot on the stove, covered, steaming away while I was preparing the burger and thought to myself everything is going to come together at exactly the same time and then I looked over to the counter by the sink and saw I had forgot to put the veggies in the pot........

On Sunday I made a batch of my sandwich buns. I had a little pie dough left over from the other day (92 grams) so I decided to make a mini blueberry pie. I had to roll it out real thin to cover the pan, I barely made it. I just guessed as to how much sugar and flour to use in it. I baked it at 375 for 45 minutes, it looks like it baked up ok.
I still have some apple/blueberry pie so I won't sample the mini pie for another day or two.

I had leftover chicken meatballs with mushroom gravy with bow-tie pasta and roasted Brussels Sprouts and cauliflower. Oh, and a slice of apple/blueberry pie which turned out real nice.

Last night on youtube I saw Chef John of Food Wishes make apple turnovers and I thought I'd make that. Then I thought I'll just make a pie but I only had 3 apples. So I added a cup of frozen blueberries to it and made apple blueberry pie. I used Pillsbury refrigerated pie crust dough, the kind you unroll (they really are a good crust option for when you're feeling a little lazy). For the top crust I cut out circles using a doughnut cutter. It's still cooling off so I don't know how it turned out taste wise.

I made turkey meatballs today and had some with spaghetti and Brussels Sprouts. I have enough for a couple more days.

BA, I like ratatouille with pasta, good stuff!

We have to same frost warning so I pulled as many peppers as I thought were worth pulling. I had pulled my few remaining tomatoes about a week ago. It was not a great year for tomatoes for me or my neighbors.

I can almost smell it, Mike, it looks fine to me!

I wonder if the pandemic caused a shortage of the Vermont cheese so they had to supplement it with cheese from other areas. Most businesses would rather make small, usually unnoticeable, changes to meet demand rather than have shortages. For example, high demand for bourbon has caused some bourbon makers to make subtle changes, the black label variety of Jim Beam was originally labeled 8 years old but now just says Extra Aged, meaning that the blend has some product in there that is less than 8 years old. That allows them to put more product on the shelves.

I had leftovers too, chicken hamburger gravy with barley. That was the last of it, I'll have to make something tomorrow.

If the artichoke hearts sold well you would think they would restock them. Maybe they were slow sellers but it sounds like it brought new customers in.

Yesterday I made hamburger gravy with ground chicken. Had it with pasta and green beans. Today I had leftovers with broccoli and carrots.
