The Kitchen Table

What's for dinner Tuesday?

13 years ago

I haven't been worth a bean today. I evidently ate something that didn't agree with me and was up all night with stomach problems and cramping. Miserable, I tell you! So now I'm really weak, but feeling better. Whatever did it, only affected me. Harry and I ate the same things and he's fine.

So tonight it'll be a fish, baked potato and steamed broccoli. I may pass on the broccoli, but Harry needs his green leafy.

It's a pretty day but I haven't been out. I think it's about 90 so I'm not missing anything but the humidity :-)

Hope you've had a good day. What are you having for dinner?

I made up a small amount of potato salad this afternoon. Had some of that, plus hamburger and baked beans.

Sorry to hear of your upset stomach. When mine gets that way, I usually want either a baked or boiled potato.

Sorry to hear you had such a bad night, Patti. Hope you're feeling better now. We'll probably have the same thing as last night. I picked up some turkey kielbasa today to go with all the salads or I could grill some chicken to go with them. DH's choice. I had a nice luncheon after golf today so I'm not that hungry.

That sounds so good, terri! Actually, everyone's supper (or lunch) sounds good. Robert asked for oven baked chicken pieces again. I basted the legs and thighs with a doctored BBQ sauce (added tobacco and apple vinegar) for the first half, then made a glaze out of that plus apricot preserves. It is sooooooo good! Sweet, sour, and spicy. Also made a batch of cheese biscuits and my cole slaw. He was a happy man! I'm always glad when he actually asks for something in particular....he helps with supper, by the way. He likes kitchen duty.

Glenda, that'll keep you warm and inside until the storm is passed you. Stay safe! Shirley, that sounds delish! Like a picnic--I think you're ready for spring, girl! Kittiesmom, I'm glad you got home safely. Hope you don't have to work tomorrow. Enjoy the sloppy joes. They're always a good thing! Mary, are you in the path of that storm Glenda is talking about? It looks like it's going straight across GA and then head north, but maybe that's changed. No doctor today, just finished up business from Harry's death. That chicken sounds good, Raven. I need to put mushrooms on my grocery list. I bought a 2-1/2 qt. crockpot when they were on sale at Wal-Mart before T-giving. I could use it since my other is way too big.

That pizza burger sounds scrumptious with mac and cheese, Tami! But I'd probably go with your hamburger. With a thick slice of onion and lots of mayo!!! Cheryl, I tried rendering lard once. It was okay but not anything special for the toil! I do love me some fried taters. Terri, I haven't tried roasting cauliflower but I've seen pictures on Pinterest and it looks good. I do like roasted Brussels sprouts. They get all brown and yummy! Kittiemom, you are eating waaay to healthy :-) That sounds good.

We ate out tonight......I had the chile relleno combo but with two servings of pinto beans and no rice. I have decided if I am ever on death row and get to pick a last meal, I will have Rancho Nipomo's chile relleno with pinto beans. They have the best salsas.......the owner grows his own chiles.

oh no sorry you have had a bad tummy, hate that. I hope you are well soon.

Our menu sounds similar. I have some fish I will probably blacken, some steamed sugar snap peas and we will split a baked potato.

Thanks everybody--I'm really hungry so I guess I'm over it (thank heavens).

Shirley, I've got to learn to think smaller in the kitchen. Potato salad would be a good start. I don't use a recipe for that anyway. Most people don't I guess. Sounds like you had a picnic!!

Georgysmom, we still have too many salads, but I couldn't handle them again today. Maybe tomorrow and then out they go. Did you decide on kielbasa or the chicken?

Raven, we always split a baked potato even baked sweet potatoes. Fewer carbs for one thing.

Mary, I'd go with the grilled cheese, I think. What do you put on your pasta? Glad it didn't rain on you today!!!

Patti - sorry to hear about your tummy ache, get better soon! We had a rainy day today, but I managed to get a rhubarb plant in the ground before the worst of the downpour. I made dinner at DS's house for us and his family. Had bavarian smokies, potato chunks tossed in butter and oven roasted, and a taco-style salad. I love a dinner like that, too bad it has mega-calories otherwise I would make it more often. Just finished an ice cream cone - black cherry cheesecake flavor.

We are now in Maine and headed for Nova Scotia in a couple of days.

Tonight we had grilled cheese sandwiches, sherried tomato soup and salad. Everything was so good.
