Thanks for all the nice birthday wishes everyone. Couldn't do family birthday as they all had the flu, so we had to postpone. Little DGD texted me that she was sorry she ruined my birthday. I told her not to worry, we could just celebrate all month! Two friends took me out to dinner last night and another to a movie and lunch today. Another one was over with a couple of bunnies and a wonderful ceramic acorn! Lots of lovely cards and phone calls too, so it was very nice. Karen, you are always so sweet to remember and I love the pretty card, got one from Jaybird too. Take care all of you--and don't catch that flu bug.

Caroline, you are both amazing and awe inspiring! Our little cross country biker chick only with pedals. ;) Stay safe, have fun!

Cathy : How did I miss your Message ??? Sherry :This started when I asked my butcher to slice some Sirloin thin for Sandwich Steaks. He sliced them a little too thick for Philly cheese Steaks. Sooooooooo !!!! I used my imagination and came up with this.Not hard to do. Just found the recipe: From Luigis Kitchen Stuffed, Large Roasted Braciole , Surf and Turf. I dont think this has been done before but Im not sure. Here are the Stuffing Ingredients: Seasoned Bread Crumbs, 2 cups, with Garlic powder, 1/3 teaspoon Onion Powder, 1/3 teaspoon Salt and a Pinch of Old Bay Seasoning Parsley Crushed , 1 teaspoon Parmesan Cheese I tablespoon 1 Tablespn. of Pwd. egg, or 1 egg mixed with the 1/2cup water, below 1/3 cup of Onions chopped small and cooked 3 min. in Micro Wave ¼ teaspoon of Black Pepper Mix all these ingredients together well. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Other Ingredients for the stuffing are; 2 Hardboiled Eggs, sliced. ½ cup of Olives and Capers chopped Mushrooms ( optional ) Cooked Shrimp Pepperoni pieces Also, add whatever you like . Maybe some Provolone Cheese? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - If using regular egg ,mix in here, when cool. In a ½ cup of hot water, mix 1 heaping teaspoon of, Chicken Soup Base and add this to the Bread Crumb mix. Dont mix too much ! And just blend to dampen, Not too wet. Lay one piece of Steak in a large Platter or whatever you choose. The piece in the Photo is about 6 in. X 12 in. Spread all the Bread Crumb stuffing mix on this evenly. Place all the Other Ingredients on the stuffing evenly. I put smaller pieces of the steak under the side and let them hang out for wrapping the Braciole as it is rolled. Lay another large piece ( the same size, as the bottom piece of the sirloin. Start rolling the steak, folding in the side pieces as you go. Hog tie the whole mess very good !!! I Browned this well and put it into the Waterless Roasting Cooker With 1/2 cup of water Now it is Ready, to go in the Oven with the Potatoes It baked 1 ¾ Hours,at 350 deg. The internal temperature went to 160 degrees.

Easy and delish! Sausage/Cabbage/New Potatoes. 2 pkgs. Eckrich Smoked Sausage, cut into bite size pieces. 1 large head of Cabbage, cut into medium size chunks 2 cans New Potatoes, drained, sliced in chunks. Butter or Margerine, salt and pepper to taste. In a VERY large skillet or electric skillet, put the sausage in first. Put Cabbage on Sausage. Put Potatoes on Cabbage. Dot liberally with butter and add salt and Pepper. Cover. Bring to high heat then lower the heat to a simmer. Cook one hour at a good simmer and just leave it alone while it cooks. That's the best part! :) After an hour, drain. Take lid off, bring to high heat and crisp everything up. The browner/burnt it gets the better! Your pan will probably get burnt marks but that's the sacrifice for such a good meal. lol I use ketchup with this. YUM. And it's great for leftovers microwaved.
