Glad everything is ok, Nancy, we have them all over here too. You never know when they are going to jump out in front of you...

Teresa, I couldn't find the recipe, would you share??

We had a Valentine's Dinner..Spanokopita hors'd, chicken and wild rice soup, and grilled rib eye, tatooed potatoes, snow peas with toasted almonds and for dessert, apple tart or heart shaped brownies dipped in chocolate...

Looks like some fine dinners were eaten today.
Sharon, I was showing a friend the food pictures and we both about fell out of our chairs looking at your gorgeous bakery cakes!
Ann, the shortribs look especially enticing. I love bread pudding :)
Kathleen, the heart galette you put together looks not only creative but yummy too.

We had another couple over for supper tonight, I put together a simple meal of Artisan bread and a Paella Salad

Just a quick hello from Spain. I think from a quick glance that your food looks better than ours. I haven't considered that I'm a fussy eater but a lot of menus here leave me not so hungry. You can see some of our trip on my travel blog Get In The Car.

Leaving the Costa del Sol (which has been the Costa del Cloudy this week) for Sevilla today. Two days there and then off to Lisbon for a week.

Keep on eating! love to all Maureen

Oh no...poor Kim! Around here deer are a real hazard too especially at dawn and dusk!

Kathleen, your pear salad looks so good! It's this time of year that a pear salad just seems to hit the spot! And I love the idea of the chocolate dipped brownies!!

Sharoncb, what kind of cake is the 2nd thumbnail on the right, the one that looks like frosted stacked wafers? All the desserts look good and I don't think I could have chosen one over the other either!

Chase, your lasagna looks fabulous.

Deborah, your creme brulee looks so good, nice and light and I love desserts like that!

Well, I've been busy baking for the Valentine's Jubilee which was a wonderful success due to the fabulous bakers we have on CF!! I got a little carried away with the cupcakes but hey...this is my element and I'm going for it!

We still have quite a bit of snow and expecting more tonight. I need some sunshine food so I think we will have lavender chicken tonight with some of Ilisa's Popcorn Cauliflower and a nice tossed salad.

Michelle

I came here to post and got side tracked...off reading Maureens blog.

Deborah, very nice dinner, I was about ready to lick the creme brulee spoon! Yummy.

Kathleen, I'm really surprised the you didn't figure out a way to shape your onion rings into hearts... ;) Everything looks so good.

We had a nice dinner here at home. A salad with crab and my 1000 Island dressing. Beef Stroganoff over parsley fettucini (surprisingly good) and Sour Cherry Turnovers.

Nancy

As usual, we all eat too well!!!!

Cathy the pasta for the lasagna is fresh pasta that's why no ridges. Nancy, when I don't use fresh I always use no cook for the same reason you so.

Kathleen, you put so much effort and love into your meals, your DH is a lucky guy.

Ann all I can say about the short ribs is that the picture is nice.......but I will have some dessert please! LOL

Sharon what are the cevapcici made from, they always look so interesting.

Nancy poor KIM!!!! She certainly deserved to be spoiled with that beautiful meal. I was having trouble deciding what to have for dinner this weekend...stroganoff it is!

Deborah, your pictures are so good. Creme Brulee is Clive's all time favourite dessert...maybe with the stroagonoff.

Last night we had dinner at Clive's cousins, 73 never married. She is a great lady and so much fun to be around. Lucky she is because she can't cook to save her life! LOL

Dinner was something made with beef over what looked like rice along with some carrots and broccoli, I think. They were orange and green! LOL

Doesn't matter one bit, we had a ball I laughed till my sides ached!!!

It seems that I rarely have time to peruse WFD, but I'm restless tonight and not sleeping so this is the perfect time!
The meals look so appealing! I need Teresa's recipe for that pot roast and Beverly's for the pork chops. Someone give me a heads up in case I miss them.
Tonight I made a 'real' dinner. It seems like our meals recently are out or hit and run and the next 4 nights will be out to dinner! (I'm right with ya Bubbe!)
Today was MIL's real birthday and so in her honor I made grilled pork chops (some were good, some not), pan fried red potatoes with herbs, steamed cauliflower (wish I had thought to try AM's popcorn version)and sugar snap peas sauteed with ponzu and ginger. Dessert was cannoli that DH had picked up at the Italian deli and a version of Paula Deen's brownies that have a surprise middle of Hershey's Symphony bar,( of course I tweaked the recipe just a bit) mmmm!

Nancy, I hope Kim and the car aren't too badly hurt.
Maureen, I love the blog, just read a day of it, but you write so well!
Stacy, your photos are better and better! DH had blueberries this morning that were surprisingly good!
Kathleen, your tables are always fabulous!
SharonCB, paradise as always! I'd love to try those tarts!
Michelle, looks like your cupcakes are perfect! Love thes strawberry one!
Shaun, are you in love with the pressure cooker yet? I'm still scared of it!
Woodie, would you share the pancake secrets please? I have some blueberries that are crying out to be made into pancakes!

Here is a link that might be useful: Paula Deen's Brownies

Everything looks wonderful!

Sol, could you please post (repost) your recipe for the Frozen Lemon Souffle? That sounds soooooo good!

Every one's food looks so good I feel like licking the screen.
Here's what's planned for dinner tonight..I made perigees for the first time and froze them. Cooked chicken breast and saute' of zucchini.

Linda P

Everything looks wonderful.
Chase - you gave me a giggle because I can so picture it! Those are the best meals, aren't they?
Kathleen - that is an awful lot of green on your plate...lol I made heart shaped brownies last year. How did you do the design? Stencil?
Mustangs - can you post the spinach bread?

We had heart shaped cheese ravioli with vodka sauce. They were so cute. They also had lobster but went with the plain. Got them at the "pork" store. Wonder is that a regional thing?

Here you go, Ellen:

You can make this in a crock pot, pressure cooker, or in a slow (325F) oven. The dry mixes are a bit salty, so don't use extra salt and you may want to sprinkle on only only 1/2 to 2/3 of the mixes. I combine the 3 mixes in a bowl first, then sprinkle them on.

Three Envelope Pot Roast

1 envelope dry Ranch dressing mix
1 envelope dry Italian dressing mix
1 envelope dry brown gravy mix
1 cup water or more depending on cooking method
1 3-4 lb. beef pot roast - I like a chuck roast

Crock Pot:
Place roast in crock pot, sprinkle dry mixes on top of roast, pour 1 cup water into bottom of pot. Cook on low for 7-8 hours or until roast is very tender. Remove roast and thicken gravy if desired.

Pressure Cooker
Brown roast in a little hot oil in cooker. Remove from pan and put in rack, place roast on rack. Sprinkle mixes on top of roast. Put in 1-2 cups water according to the amount of liquid needed for your size cooker in your manual. Put lid on pot, bring up to high pressure, lower heat, and cook 15 minutes per pound. Let pressure decrease naturally.

Oven Roasting
Brown pot roast in a little hot oil in a heavy cast iron skillet or dutch oven-type pot. Sprinkle dry mixes over top of roast. Pour 1 cup liquid into bottom of pot. Place lid on pot or cover with heavy-duty foil to seal pot well. Cook at 325 for 2-3 hours, checking water level to be sure all the liquid does not cook away.

I made this in my pressure cooker for family and it was a hit - delicious! I thickened the gravy with a slurry of cornstarch and water and served the pot roast with cooked carrots and potatoes.

OMG Deborah, what a luscious brulee. Perfect.

Sharon, I knew that the Short Ribs wouldn't appeal to you. But I bet Clive would have loved them.

Nancy, What a lovely dinner for Kim to come home too. I can imagine how shook up she was. I remember the number of deer up your way. It was similar to the area we lived in NY state. That was one of my biggest fears that I would hit a deer or a wild turkey. Came close a couple of times.

Michelle, what an array of cupcakes. I like the one with the stawberry in it.

I worked yesterday so dinner wasn't anything special. Moe put a small ham in the oven for me an hour or so before I got home. So all I had to do was cook the sides.

Baked ham with sweet potato, corn pudding, and green beans.

Thanks Teresa! I don't have a PCooker but do have the crock and the heavy pan. Which do you think is best?

I would probably use a heavy pan like a cast iron skillet with foil to cover or Le Creuset.

holy cow - great stuff.

lyndaluu - if you're just planning that, how did you end up with such a gorgeous photo?

deborah your photos are gorgeuos.

Ann, that bread pudding has me drooling. Can you believe I've never had it?

kathleenn what a wonderful spread!

nancy I love your turnovers - Will would gobble those up.

Well, my mom was admitted to the hospital this morning. it's been a long time - but still, her timing could be better - lol. Just came home for a few mins before I go back up - not sure what it is - her breathing, medication problems or what.

Scott brought home panzerotto from a local pizzeria last night - pizza crust around ham, cheese and sauce. Tasted great - cuz I didn't have to cook it! He also got me these...very sweet.

{{gwi:1490114}}

Stacy

Teresa and then Shaun's pictures of the pot roast were fabulous, so tonight, that is what we are having.

I didn't have the ranch, italian, or brown gravy packets, so ran to the store earlier today and got them, and put two nice chuck roasts in the oven about two hours ago.

Sides will be homemade egg noodles with butter and pasley, steamed green and wax beans, and dessert will be an apple bread pudding from all my leftover apples from the last month and my freezer bag of leftover breads. I will serve it with a vanilla rum sauce and whipped cream.

I am betting the pot roast is as good as it looks! Two of our kids and their families are going to be here for dinner tonight, they will be happy campers I am sure!

Saturday lunch or dinner for us might just be open face hot pot roast beef sandwiches! I hope there will be leftovers! Yum!

mMMmmmm I've been away from this thread a few days..Everything looks sooooo yummy..

Lastnight~sorry no pictures~ oh wait I do have a picture of the boys pizzas..I'll get that on..

But I grilled pork chops, a shrimp skewer for hubby and we had baked potatoes and veggies and dip. Dessert was fresh pineapple sprinkled with some raw sugar..Hubby ate his raw and I grilled mine and had a little vanilla bean ice cream with it.

The boys "hid" in the back of the house. LOL

I actually made this a week or so ago and plan on making them again Tee Hee....

Linda

Well, I was almost done with my post when my keyboard went dead. I think I finally fixed it, I hope. Anyway, back to square one.

How in the heck did we get past the halfway mark so quickly? I can't leave you guys unsupervised for any length of time.

Stacy, Michelle and GG, I'll post the recipes below.

Dear Bubbe - I didn't murder no turkey. That was our very own outlaw, Luigi.
Kathleen - your heart-shaped treats are a show stopper.
Terri - your dinner looks delish, especially the artsy-fartsy broccoli [G]

Sol:
What dough recipe did you use for you Buns? They look a Golden Color.

The Brioche dough is yellow due to lots of tachycardia-inducing eggs and butter.
Btw, Luigi, I hope that poor ol' turkey didn't see it coming ;-o But you sure made him look good.

Ann - your Short Ribs and Bread Butter Pudding look great. I'd think I'd like that for my last meal on earth.
Ohiomom - your Boules are beautiful.
Sharoncb - it's a good thing I don't have a fancy bakery nearby, or I'd be in trouble. The desserts look mouth-watering, and I especially like the tiered server.
Marigene - your offering looks great too; I'm intrigued by the Cauliflower Popcorn. I need to look that up.
Stacy - the Taco Salad and the light fruit dessert look amazing. I'll have to check out what the strawberries in my area look like this time of year. Last winter, they looked a bit anemic, but if I can get some that look like yours, then I will.
Sharon/chase - your Lasagna looks too sinful to be posted without a warning.
Mon ami, Monique - it's always so damn good to see you here. Merci and prise de l'ours. Don't laugh. I'm trying.
Jain - I love you too.
Good looking Cherry Turnovers, Nancy. Jim would love those.

We went out for Vday dinner, so no pictures. I've been doing lots of baking and not much cooking lately. I think I need to reverse that, before my jeans explode and kill someone.

Chicken & Dumplings

It's best to start this the day before.

1 whole frying chicken, 3 to 3 ½ pounds
1 large onion, peeled and quartered
4 carrots, quartered
4 stalks celery, coarsely chopped
4-6 garlic cloves
2-3 bay leaves
a dozen peppercorns
1 tablespoon salt
1 cup heavy cream or half & half

Place chicken and add all of the ingredients, except for the heavy cream, into a 6-quart (or larger) pot. Cover with cold water and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the chicken is falling off the bones, about 1½ hours. Remove the chicken from the broth and allow it to cool. Once chicken is cool enough to handle, take the skin off and discard. Take meat off the bones and return the bones to the broth to cook for another hour or two.
Meanwhile, refrigerate the meat until needed.
When the broth is ready, remove it from the heat and taste for seasoning. If you have time, chill the broth overnight in your refrigerator. If time is short, put the broth in the fridge for a couple of hours and skim some of the fat off the top. Remember, fat is flavor.

Strain the broth and return to the pot. Discard the vegetables and bay leaves ... I kept the carrots.

The dumplings were basically fresh pasta dough to which I added fresh herbs, such as parsley, but other fresh herbs such as thyme, tarragon, chives, will be great.
I put the dough through my pasta machine, gradually adjusting the rollers to achieve the right thickness. In this case, I ran the pasta through to the #6 setting.

Cut the dough into strips about 1" wide and allowed them to dry for about 30 minutes.

While the dumplings are drying, heat the chicken broth to a low simmer. Add heavy cream or half & half and taste again for seasoning. Return chicken to the broth. Lower the dumplings (or noodles) into the broth. Cook uncovered until they're tender and cooked through.

----------------------------------------------------

Frozen Lemon Soufflé *

3 egg yolks
½ cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
pinch of salt
5 ounces heavy cream
Fresh berries and whipped cream for garnish (I used my raspberry coulis and garnished with a white chocolate molded, scrolly thingy).

Set saucepan of water on stove and heat to a gentle simmer. In a SS bowl, whisk together yolks, sugar, lemon juice and salt to blend completely.
Set bowl over simmering water in saucepan (make sure the bowl does not touch the water) and continue whisking until thick, 6-8 minutes. Remove bowl from heat and whisk in lemon zest. Cover and chill overnight.
Grease four 5-ounce ramekins and line with plastic wrap, making sure to press plastic into corners. Whip cream until stiff peaks form and fold into lemon mixture. Divide evenly among prepared molds and freeze for at least 4 hours. My adaptation of Topper's pastry chef Jennifer Hooper.

*I doubled the ingredients. As written, this wasn't enough to feed a bird, and I like dessert.

Sol

Sol:
It's about time you put the Chicken and Dumplings on.
I've been waiting 2 weeks.
LOU

Sol: I just scrolled up 2 notches and saw you Post,again.

Bubbe:
That's not the same Turkey as on the Platter.

Sol:
You're no help at all. Letting her think I'm a murderer.
Lou

Well, we are celebrating Lent now in our home, so that means being creative (or trying to be) without meat. Last night (Friday) we had Crab Cakes, Shrimp Boil (in my homemade "Old Bay" spice), Twice Baked Cheese Potatoes, and Corn [we had not had any all week - my son was in corn withdrawl!: )]. It was very tasty!

By the way, my spell check is still busted. : ) As if you can't tell!

Joanne

Those m&m's are so romantic:)

Last night we had Gina's lemon linguine. So gooood. I highly recommend eating the shrimp cold from the fridge later on in the evening - lol. I never do stuff like that!

Thanks for the great recipe.

We had a pet turkey growing up named Howie Cosell. My mom had to give it away one year and the man - I still remember his name - promised not to eat him - but alas he told a lie and it was curtains for Howie:(

Jcrowley - try downloading google toolbar.

LOL, Howie Cosell! I couldn't eat something named Howie Cosell, LOL, I bet the Turkey was still talking when it went in the oven :)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R56u1DaH70E

I love those M&M's! The panzaroto looks delicious. Never heard of it. Like a calzone?

Ham looks great, the pot roast, beef stroganoff and cherry turnovers, brulee, the brownies and galette, everything looks and sounds so good on this thread! Always does. Very inspiring, and it makes me very hungry!

Copied and pasted the lemon souffles, Sol! Lemon anything to me is amazing, your lemon souffles look Fantásticamente bueno :)

I'm giving this new recipe I found a shot:

BEEF TENDEROLOIN WITH PORT, MUSHROOM, AND STILTON SAUCE
Beef:
1/4 cup butter
1/2 tsp coarsely ground pepper
1 tsp minced fresh garlic
2-3 lb beef tenderloin, trimmed and tied

Reduction Sauce:
1 tbsp butter
4 oz crumbled Stilton cheese
1 cup beef broth
1/4 cup Maderia wine
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted
1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted
1/3 cup green onions

Heat oven to 400 degrees. In a skillet melt 1/4 cup butter until sizzling; stir in pepper and garlic. Place tenderloin in skillet. Cook over medium high heat until browned on all sides (79 minutes). Remove from pan; reserve pan juices and browned particles in skillet. Line a 13x9 baking pan with foil; place tenderloin in pan. Bake 3550 minutes or until meat thermometer reaches 160F (medium). Remove from oven and let rest, tented for 510 minutes.

Meanwhile, melt 2 tbsp butter in same skillet with reserved pan juices and browned particles until sizzling; stir in blue cheese. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until cheese is melted (45 minutes). Stir in beef broth and wine; add mushrooms. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally until mushrooms are tender. Stir in remaining sauce ingredients. Serve over carved tenderloin.

The sides I think I am going to do right now are: Horseradish Mashed Potatoes, Lemony Green Beans Bundles, Roasted Baby Beets, and Hot Sourdough Rolls.

If we have a dessert, it will probably be vanilla ice cream with creme de menthe.

Okay, if I have to remark on all the above by name I'll never post.
So, what they all said!
But, did I miss the recipe for the popcorn cauliflower?

Last night's dinner was a salad of endive, baby butter lettuces, artichoke hearts, radishes,and goat cheese with a ginger vinaigrette dressing (bottled, sorry). I made my pot roast and served peas with shitake mushrooms and broad noodles.

{{gwi:1490116}}

The candles were handmade by Ann T; part of a swap from some time ago. I loved then too much to use them hurriedly.

Bubbe

Love your pot roast recipes, Renee, looks great!

It's from the thread on cauliflower, here you go...

POPCORN CAULIFLOWER

2 heads cauliflower
1 tsp salt
2 tsp sugar
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp turmeric
6-8 Tbl lve oil

Cut the cauliflower into small florets, toss the stems. Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and toss the cauliflower to coat it. Put the cauliflower in a single layer on a lined pan and Roast at 450 for about 35 minutes, tossing occasionally.

{{gwi:1490118}}

I've been away from this thread for a few days too. So many wonderful looking dishes.

Tonight is Lasagna, salad & crusty garlic bread. Cheesecake for dessert with blueberry topping.

Just one word, WOW! I'm home from my biz trip after yet another delayed flight resulting in getting home at 1:00 AM. I'm looking forward to reading everything and catching up.

Can't wait to get back in the kitchen and cook dinner and have Alaskan salmon thawing to cook with lemongrass and coconut milk. Have to go shop for veggies - lots of veggies - always my biggest craving after a trip.

Lee

Great looking meals, as usual :) Last night we had Shrimp Pasta, no pics though.

No Biggee tonight;
Had some prebaked Dough in the freezer. so I made a small Pizza.
With Pepporoni , Mushrooms,topped with Provolone.

LOU

Yum! That pizza is making me hungry Lou! We had crispy breaded chicken breasts, cheesy broccoli and rice and a salad with tomatoes and butter lettuce.

Maggie - I had to get rid of my Google Tool Bar, it was making my computer hang. It took 5 minutes for Internet Explorer to load last week. My husband spent several hours trying to locate the problem before determining it was Google Tool Bar, and now he won't let me have it back. : (
I could copy to Word, spell check, then paste back here, but frankly I'm just too lazy! If my mispellings get too annoying, just tell me and I'll do that!

I already printed out that recipe for Popcorn Cauliflower, it sounds great and the guys love cauliflower.

Oh Stacy, the M&Ms are so cute and I love the colors he picked too!

I made the best dinner tonight and it tasted just like Summer. But to prepare it Joe had to shovel a path to the grill...LOL!!! We had a snow drift about 3' deep all around the grill so it took some time. We have freezing rain predicted for tonight and tomorrow but I'm still hoping Spring is coming soon.

Grilled lavender chicken with roasted vegetable and fresh frozen sweet corn that I put up last Summer. Gosh, it tasted so good. I've got some Pepper Shortbread in the oven for later on.

Michelle

Stacy, I'd skip dinner and just eat M & M's. What a sweetheart Scott. Nice to see that he appreciates you.

Between Cathy and Shaun's Pot Roasts and now Renee's I have a major craving. I think Pot roast will be on the menu tomorrow night. I'll get it ready and in the oven before I leave for work and Moe can take it out when it is cooked.

Michelle your dinner does look like summer. I remember the days of digging a path to the grill and 40 below temps. Sure don't miss the Sault at all.

Dinner tonight was Spaghetti with Prawns and garlic toast.

LOL, potroast is on our menu tomorrow also. Funny, the power of the forum.

We had salmon cooked in the coconut milk curry sauce, brown basmati rice and stir fried broccoli, mushrooms, red pepper and snap peas. Just a small bunch of red grapes for dessert.

Lee

Pot roast sounds like a plan!

Bubbe, your salad looks great.
Jcrowley, doesn't bother me in the least! I forget to spellcheck most of the time:) I have no problems with google toolbar but if you got it fixed I wouldn't mess with it either!
Michelle, I must be on valentine overload because you chicken looks like an upside down heart to me!
Ann, your prawns looks delicious.
We love the popcorn cauliflower.
Lee, I love hearing about your menus. So different from mine. I need to get more creative.

Last night I snuck out with the boy to have dinner with my sister's family at a Japanese restaurant. It was my sister's b'day. We shared shrimp and chicken hibachi and he ate everything with the kids chopsticks. I don't eat sushi. We had a Missippi Mud Cheesecake back at her house for dessert. Totally decadent.

Lots of interesting sweets and dinners!
Maureen I hope you enjoy Sevilla and find some good food there! I enjoyed looking at your photos of Gibraltar.
I remember that area as being windy when I used to travel there every year in March.

Michelle....you asked about one of the frosted stacked cakes in my pics.....did you mean

Nancy.....you always make good looking dinners and desserts!

Chase....the cevapcici is a Serbian recipe for sausagelike patties made from ground lamb and beef, originally cooked on skewers over glowing coals. They also contain, onion, garlic, Hungarian paprika, egg and lard. I can post a recipe that I have (not t&t though) if you would like. I have also seen some videos of them being cooked on You Tube, however the commentary wasn't in English.

Ann all your dinners look delicious. I wish I could buy a good Canadian style ham over here. I had some spaghetti with garlic and prawns on Friday out at the Botanical restaurant.....I love that dish, and the more garlic they use, the better it tastes!

Stacy those are cute M & Ms....how do they print your name on them ????

Good looking dinner Bubbe. So nice to have you back posting here again.

We were out again on Saturday for lunch....it's very busy around here at this time of the year with holidaymakers everywhere enjoying the sunshine. The weather really is beautiful every morning even though it often clouds over in the afternoon.
We were lucky to find a table free at Saturday lunch time.
Wolf had a senior's (smaller) portion of roast pork with sauerkraut and bratkartoffeln (pan-fried potatoes & onion) while I had fish fillets, potatoes and a small salad, followed by the usual cafe cortado.

Everything in coming into bloom here...the peach tree already has some fruit, the Chinese jasmine vine is beautiful right now, the red trumpet vine is crawling all over our walls and Suzie loves to snooze in the sun.

Happy Sunday everyone!

SharonCb

Lou, your pizza looks good. I made one too for meatless Fri.

Sweet M and M's Stacy..hope your party went well and that your mom is doing better...

Ann your pasta and shrimp look wonderful...

Sharon, your pics renew hope of Spring for us in the frozen areas. Peaches...heavenly
Michelle your grilled dinner looks great. Joe is a good sport!
I had a small boneless loin of pork, I sliced it and pounded it in to cutlets, did them in panko. Sauteed sliced apples and pierrogi with sauteed onions and a veggie. I have shown the same meal before, so I won't post the pic...

Maggie, glad you got out. You needed a break!

called a "punschschnitte" or punch slice, it consisted of soft layers with a fruit jelly in between, soaked in a punch made of orange and lemon juice with rum, sugar etc and covered in a sweet glaze. They were to die for.

Yep that's the one! Sounds like it's almost worth the flight over to taste it!! We do travel for food!

Well, we did not the freezing rain that was predicted but we sure got rain and now we are flooding everywhere. Our trim wood is stored in our garage so Joe is out with a broom trying to control the water that is flooding in! What a mess!

Michelle

I hope this works, I am posting my first photograph!

We didn't have the tenderloin last night, it will have to be tonight. Instead we ended up going out to dinner and I took some photos!

Yea! Not very good ones, but I have little to no experience, but am happy to say, my meal of liver and onions was delicious!

[IMG]http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg237/GrandmaGinger/DSCF2563.jpg[/IMG]

My husband had fish and chips!

[IMG]http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg237/GrandmaGinger/DSCF2558.jpg[/IMG]

Okay then, I just printed out Teresa's recipe for pot roast and the popcorn cauliflower for this week's meals! I guess after all those yummy photos there will be a run on chuck roasts!

Disneyginger, use the html code and the picture should show up.

Forgot to mention how adorable and what sweet gesture those M&M's were! I'd be delighted to receive those as my Valentine's gift! Stacy, how's your mom doing?

Disneyginger, click on the link and scroll down to HOW TO ADD IMAGES. The tutorial is pretty easy.

Ann T, I am making shrimp and pasta tonight, but try as I might, my efforts will not compare to your visuals..dang girl, you got that style thingie goin!

My salad disappeared as did Ann's candles...I mistakenly deleted the photos from picturetrail and poof, no more. Lesson learned = keep uploading and increasing the tariff. LOL Upgrade ahead of me.

Michelle, that is one gorgeous plate. Hum, just as I asked myself where you got the corn, then I read the answer. Looks yummy.

Bubbe (who is heading for the kitchen)

Finally, a version of the Beef Tenderloin with Red Wine and Onions. Sauce was delish!

Disneyginger You did it! Yahoo! Yipee! Way to go!
And girlfriend, it sure looks tasty!

Lou since using your recipe for pizza dough it has become a once a week meal here, my son could probably eat it more often :)

Oh Michelle, grilled chicken and corn on the cob ? Hurry up Spring/Summer !

Ohiomom:
Thank You! I found it makes a Crispy Tender Crust.
Lou
