No cooking!
I'm thinking IHOP!

No cooking here either. We're going to a restaurant with Joe's brother & his wife, no idea what restaurant, somewhere downtown, and no idea what I'll order.

My son is here and he cooked a big breakfast this morning, so that will tide us over til tonight when I make tacos.

I don't know yet. I think I'll put on some beans this afternoon and then figure out later what will go with the beans.

DH went to Marianas Mexican Supermarket and got marinated carne asada meat yesterday after bringing me home from my surgery. Tonight he and DS are going to grill it, then make tortas for DS and paninis for me, MomBondo and MIL. Yum...I can't wait.

My sister in law will be here today to visit. She comes about once every 6-8 weeks. We always order a pizza when she comes. :)

Ended up having fried catfish strips, and sitting with a friend and her DH.

We're having leftover hot beef sandwiches, leftover potatoes and fresh broccoli. Chocolate chip cookies for dessert.

We're grillin'. Large portabello mushrooms stuffed with a mix of mozzarella, tomato, garlic, basil and olive oil. Also making a sweet onion packet--sliced onions, olive oil, S&P and a little hot sauce wrapped in foil and grilled. Hamburger patties--no buns.

Supposed to get cold again tonight and storm so trying to enjoy the warmth while we can.

I just boiled some chicken. I think I am going to make some spanish rice and put the chicken in it, like my mother's friend used to do. Just me at home, so it is easier to eat out, but I live so far from town, that once I leave home, the day is shot. Plus, I need to eat some of the stuff that is in the freezer....so every day, I reach in and grab something...and today it was chicken.

I have no idea. I'm home alone today. Alex went to his dad's for the first time in 2-3? years. It's his birthday, not sure if that's why he decided all of a sudden to go see him or not. Not sure if he will be back later or not either. They were going to see a movie but that's all I know. Lot of crap going on with the ex and his new family, just hope it doesn't mess this visit up with Alex.

Lauren went with her friends for a birthday party snow tubing in Indiana today.

Just don't know what to do...should I go out, get fast food, or make something here? Still in my pjs so I at least need to go shower.

I'm not sure about tonight..but last nights was sure good.

I found a recipe by Margene on the Meeting House forum..for Spicy Chicken patties...Oh boy was it good...

Had a hard time making it because we looked high and low for my little food processor...it was no where to be found...so I "chopped" the raw chicken breasts.
It was so good when Denny came home this morning..he had bought me a new food processor....yeehaw...

We had creamy mac and cheese and fresh asparagus with it.

Spicy Chicken Patties

Make into patties, cook in oil
it said 7 mins on each side or until done

Sauce

2 Tablespoons Mayonnaise
2 teaspoons horseradish

and I used a little bit of prepared mustard)

I hope you enjoy it as much as we did...

Probably won't cook. We had a late lunch at a Greek Restaurant today. It was wonderful.

Stuffed peppers.

DH and I are meeting some friends of mine (two other couples) at Hu Hot Mongolian Grill. Haven't tried that place yet; it's pretty new here.

Have a good evening, all.

Hugs,

Ohhhh I wana eat with SadieSadie....I love that place...

You have to choose your own combination of sauce...

When we first went they told us if we didn't like what we chose to just go get more and try a different combination...

I loved the one I tried right off the bat and have stuck with it...

If all the Hu Hot are the same I choose the second on the bottom row(three dips) the wine (2 dips)(I think it is the second on the bottom row in the second grouping) and the sesame seed oil 1 or two dips....

I can taste it now....

I just got back from Taco Bell, got a nachos bellgrande. They just don't make them like they used to. I don't quite know what's missing but I went and added some green onions of my own.

It's hailing/sleeting and nasty out there right now. Already one accident I passed on the way home. I dread having to go to work in the morning.

We pulled some chili out of the freezer (that I made a couple of months ago) and served it in bread bowls. Pretty tasty! We had the even lazier night yesterday, KYC, which I hadn't had in at least 3-4 years so that was a bit of a treat.

I got some large shrimp on sale and we were going to grill, but it was chilly.
I butterflied them and marinated them in fresh ginger, garlic, pepper and a little lite soy, then I put them on the a really hot griddle. They seared on the outside but were still really moist on the inside - fine if I do say so!
