I wish there was a Panera's close by so I could try it. I always think of Patti43 when I hear of it.

Split pea soup and a chicken sandwich. On the chilly side here in Ohio today.

I did call Patti, this morning, and this afternoon, leaving a message the first time. Told her we at the KT miss her, and if she or a relative has the time, to please call me.

I also sent an email the other day.

Prayers for Patti and hoping we will hear something.

Down by the farmer's market for me. It's become my usual Saturday drive. Veal cutlet and their 7 layer salad. Always dellcious!

Jude, is this a special occasion? Your dinner sure sounds like it. Here is the apple recipe I used: Fried Apples 8 medium Granny Smith apples, chopped (I used 4 Gala) 1/4 c. butter 1/2 c. brown sugar 1/2 tsp. cinnamon 1/8 tsp. nutmeg Melt butter in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat. Add apples and remaining ingredients. Saute 15 to 20 minutes or until apples or tender. Serves 6. (If you use 8 apples.) Shirley, it was a good day for vegetable soup. I have the heat back on but Harry's still cold. Mary, your sure keep busy! I love macaroni salad, but I don't like mine all that much. Wish I could have a bowlful of my mother's again. Marilyn, you cook the best meals for being as busy as you are! We ended up with turkey with leftover dressing from last night. (I was on the phone with my sister too long to do the potatoes.) Glenda, sounds delicious--I know you don't care for them, but I'd have to have fries with it. Haven't tried one with grilled onions--next time, whenever that may be. Stacey, happy anniversary! Hope you have many more. Enjoy tomorrow with family, too. Georgysmom, I just love Steel Magnolias and watch it every time I see it's on TV. Sounds like a nice way to spend a Saturday afternoon. We usually only order from the appetizer list when we eat out. Otherwise we overeat and bring enough home for two more meals.

Holy cow! I was out in the garage and heard something outside. A lot of garage doors around here (including ours) has a screen across it and works on tracks similar to a sliding glass door. I went over to look out and out of nowhere came an armadillo who casually walked across our driveway and laid down under the downspout next to the garage. Then, here comes another one. Geez, Grand Central Station for the aramdillos around here today. Anybody have a recipe--haha! Mary, gear up--we're all coming for dessert (and maybe some mac and cheese if you have any leftover). That cake sounds delicious. Shirley, your mac and cheese sounds good, too. I'm not too crazy about stuffed peppers but I do like stuffed cabbage. That's a good idea! Jasdip, you really scored on the pork loin. Even $1.88 would be a bargain around here. You can get a lot of meals out of one when there are only two people. Linda, funny you mentioned that Georgia salad with the salmon. I was talking to my sister on the phone this afternoon and she was telling me about a restaurant they went to for lunch one day last week and described that very same salad all the way down to the bacon dressing. They live in Indiana, so I guess they'd have to call it Indiana salad :-) It sounds delicious!

Mary, for not feeling well, you sure can cook a good meal! :-) Soon the surgery will be over and hopefully you will feel so much better. I'm fine--just restless like I should be doing something (like cleaning the house). Raven, I'm so glad your mother enjoyed her party so much. It sounds like a wonderful family affair and I bet you had great food, too. What is hot boudin? Your description at the meat market made me want to grab a cooler and head west!! Shirley, it's nice you can cook a few times and get so many meals from your efforts. I ask Harry for suggestions for this coming week's menu and he always says the same thing--"I don't know". Well, he'll know next week because we're eating out of the freezer all week. Needs it anyway, but I sure wish he'd give me a clue once in a while. Thanks, Sue. Might as well make extra while you're at it.

Gosh, everyone's dinner sounds so good! I swear that I'm going to get a slow cooker; I must be one of the few that don't. I'm looking forward to those cool autumn evenings. I sort of miss our little outdoor chiminea....it was enjoyable to sit around a fire and chat over drinks. Jasdip, my eyes are FABULOUS! My vision gets sharper and brighter every day. I asked Robert this evening if he noticed that the TV reception had improved and he just laughed at me. I simply cannot believe that I have this vision out of my own eyes. My doctor somehow managed to finess my new lenses so that I feel like I have almost infinite far vision but still can see well enough close up that I've only needed readers for very small print. I can put on my makeup, read most things without my new little readers. I will donate all of my eye glasses next week. Pretty amazing. I had him, his technician, and myself dabbing our eyes last week at a checkup visit after my second surgery. I made him stop what he was going, I took his hand in mine, leaned close to him and told him how much my new vision meant to me, someone who had really been so burdened by terrible vision since I was a little, tiny girl. I wanted him to know that my life was changed.

We had some tasty crackers and nice cheese for our happy hour. I also cooked up a few shrimp in some buttah for us to put on our loaded salads. And we'll eat in front of the TV so we can watch the games. Supper time!

Gadgets, soap and a sandwich is always good on a cold day
Glenda, you always have interesting places to get dinner.
Rhizo, sounds like a fun evening
Satine, I like ribs or anything on a bone for that matter!

Our friend dropped in on his bicycle this afternoon. He was out on a couple of errands and when he went home he realized that he hadn't taken his house key with him.

So he dropped around to put in some time till his neighbours came home who have a spare key.

I had taken a baked ziti out of the freezer, and knew there would be enough for 3 of us, so we had that and salads. Some oatmeal-carrot muffins that I made today as well.

Terri, I made the hamburger bun recipe that you posted, we had breakfast burgers. I halved the recipe and only got 4 buns out of it, so I'll definitely make a full recipe next time.

I emailed and called Patti. It's nothing as I didn't touch base with anyone. I did try, and most were interested in hearing about her. Left a message and hope someone will call and update us on patti!

Just keep her in your prayers and thoughts.

We had a chicken stir fry and something we haven't had in a while because of our low carb diet - brown rice.

Slow roasted beef brisket, potatoes and green beans.

Saw your before "edit" post, Glenda. We are all concerned about Patti. Not sure why your panties got all twisted.

It was on the cool side here today and we were outside most of the day digging up and planting flowers. So I made a pot of chili. It sure was good.
