The Kitchen Table

What's for dinner 1/1/11?

15 years ago

Here we go--off to a new year. I only resolve to clean out my closet and dresser, but I have 364 days to do it, right? We're having the ususal New Year's Day dinner. Black-eyed peas, rice and greens (kale) with smoked sauage (for the pork). I'll make some cornbread, too. Hope by eating this stuff we'll have a healthy, properous year!

What are you doing and what's for dinner at your house?

Too wet go to out so I had: A serving of WalMarts broccoli salad, Lean Cuisine spaghetti with mushroom and meat sauce, and orange wedges

I had turnip greens, Hoppin John and cornbread. Had a glass of iced tea to go with it.

WE got a 20" snowfall overnight so its been hectic trying to dig out. Fortunately we had an adequate warning from the weather service ppl the night before so I made a huge pot of chilli in the crock pot. It sure has been nice to go out there and mess with the snow a bit, then come in, pull the heavy clothes and boots off and warm up with a small bowl of chilli and a few cups of hot coffee.

Chinese take out. I felt guilty. Went to movies and had lunch at a Chinese restaurant next to theater. Told DH I'd bring home take out if he would like. Orange Beef, General Tsao's chicken, fried rice and hot and sour soup. Can't wait. The egg rolls are from the freezer. I made them a while back.

Is sausage and cabbage/kraut supposed to bring good luck?
That's the first I heard of it, here yesterday.

We had spareribs. Will pork bring us luck, or does it have to be sausage? Beans and oven potatoes with the ribs.
