Main Man made Steak Fingers last night. So delicious! They were on my Mind when I woke up, so I decided to have one for Breakfast too! LOL!

I'm thinking I'll make Spaghetti Pie tonight.

Cooked Buttered/Parmesan Spaghetti on the bottom.

Cottage Cheese slathered over the Spaghetti

Then Meat and Sauce.

Topped with Mozzarella Cheese and Olives

A nice Salad and Garlic Toasted Bread. OMG!

Sticky rolls and I'm blaming that on Phyllis.

Love the smiley. You always seem to have one that is so cute and appropriate.

I think I'll try the dry pan method for the mushrooms next time. I made another pizza last night, precooking the dough with dry cheese on top first and then added an extremely thin layer of sauce. I also added quite a bit of chopped fresh basil, two mushrooms sliced very thinly (for a 17" pizza), some black olives, and two jalapeÃ±os also sliced very thinly. On the top I used regular mozzarella instead of fresh, and it got very brown in the oven at 550Â° for 9 minutes. There was still a bit more moisture than I wanted, although the cheese was very dry and almost chewy. I didn't try the ricotta, although it is definitely drier than the fresh mozzarella. I'm not quite there yet, but I'm getting closer. Before I was making pizza with a thinner crust and using a lot less on top of it. Maybe I should go back to that method, although it is a bit tricker to get the dough stretched out. I bought the pizza peel myself, and it is aluminum. I might buy another one that is all wood. Lars

That sounds like a lot of fun. Wrapping with that thin dough sounds hard to me. Let us know how the class went. Curried pot stickers sound really good.

Why Do You Cook?

To some degree, the cooking = love thing is based on how we show love. A book/ theory I find useful, it's helped me with relationships, is the 5 love languages. Ignore the symbols, I'm too lazy to change them all. Here's the basics in a nutshell: The 5 Love Languages What if you could say or do just the right thing guaranteed to make that special someone feel loved? The secret is learning the right love language! The 5 Love Languages, Dr. Gary Chapman's New York Times bestseller! Words of Affirmation Actions don't always speak louder than words. If this is your love language, unsolicited compliments mean the world to you. Hearing the words, "I love you," are important'hearing the reasons behind that love sends your spirits skyward. Insults can leave you shattered and are not easily forgotten. Quality Time In the vernacular of Quality Time, nothing says, "I love you," like full, undivided attention. Being there for this type of person is critical, but really being there�with the TV off, fork and knife down, and all chores and tasks on standby�makes your significant other feel truly special and loved. Distractions, postponed dates, or the failure to listen can be especially hurtful. Receiving Gifts Don�t mistake this love language for materialism; the receiver of gifts thrives on the love, thoughtfulness, and effort behind the gift. If you speak this language, the perfect gift or gesture shows that you are known, you are cared for, and you are prized above whatever was sacrificed to bring the gift to you. A missed birthday, anniversary, or a hasty, thoughtless gift would be disastrous�so would the absence of everyday gestures. Acts of Service Can vacuuming the floors really be an expression of love? Absolutely! Anything you do to ease the burden of responsibilities weighing on an "Acts of Service" person will speak volumes. The words he or she most want to hear: "Let me do that for you." Laziness, broken commitments, and making more work for them tell speakers of this language their feelings don�t matter. Physical Touch This language isn�t all about the bedroom. A person whose primary language is Physical Touch is, not surprisingly, very touchy. Hugs, pats on the back, holding hands, and thoughtful touches on the arm, shoulder, or face�they can all be ways to show excitement, concern, care, and love. Physical presence and accessibility are crucial, while neglect or abuse can be unforgivable and destructive.

Hurrying up a too-slow pot roast for TONIGHT’S dinner?

I was going to suggest the pressure cooker. Without a manual, you can still get some good info online. I've included links below to the two most popular sources for pressure cooker recipes. Also, you could search online for the manual that accompanies your particular cooker. Once you get a general recipe for a pot roast that's about the weight of your cut of meat, you'll know how much liquid is needed and how long to cook it.

I am making a stromboli, it calls for bacon and cheese but I think I am going to use mozzarella cheese and
pepperoni! I may even adventure back to the store and get some lettuce and tomatoes for a small salad.
It is so nasty out, we had freezing rain last night and today it is raining bad which may refreeze.

Oh, don't have to cook tonight. DD invited us for dinner for Valentine's Day (of course, she's reserving tomorrow night for the boyfriend). All I had to do was make dessert.

6 months into it, I'm enjoying being an empty-nester and getting invites to dinner at HER house for a change. (Even if I did have to spend most of Monday sitting in her apt., waiting for the heater repair guy--LOL)

We're going to a catfish place w/ DH's cousin and her husband. It's all you can eat (can you say pig?) We love their cole slaw. Yum. Tomorrow night I'm cooking b/c DD#2 is coming w/ the twins and 3 y o. I'm making a chicken dish a friend brought her when the twins were born. It has swiss cheese and stuffing mix and is delicious. She's requested chicken fried steak and the best is at a restaurant here. I'll let them splatter up their stove!

The other day I made Swiss steak, mashed potatoes and gravy and broccoli casserole. Casserole's gone but tonight we're having open-faced beef & gravy sandwiches. I shredded the beef into the gravy. I tell you, I can hardly wait! Pickled beets for a veggie. Leftover Hawaiian cake for dessert--if there's room.
