What's for dinner Friday?

10 years ago

Out all day again so we had a late lunch/early dinner at Red Lobster. I had shrimp and Harry had catfish. Both were very good.

What are you doing for dinner tonight?

Chili........I had a lot of left over Carnitas and I have used them in in just about every way I can think of and needed to use the last of them so chili popped in my mind this afternoon....We have the AC going full blast so it might as well be winter out so it doesn't make any difference that it's 100 degrees outside...

I had some of my homemade lasagna in the freezer. I added grapes and blueberries to my salad. That became my evening meal. So very easy too.

I've never tasted catfish. And I had to look up Carnitas... sounds good.

Sue, glad you were able to get out and about. I see Indpls. weather in our newspaper. Like to look since DB lives in Greensburg. We only got up to 49 today--or so the paper said. Just heard we should have 70 on Monday, though. Glenda--haha! Hope you enjoyed that tamale. I had a pork tamale a couple of years ago at a little bakery that sells other things on the side. It was homemade and pretty good. Raven, happy birthday to your DH and have a wonderful dinner. I think yours sounds delicious! Shirley, isn't it fun to read restaurant menus? Sure is hard to make up one's mind sometimes! Especially if I'm hungry!! You must be having meatless Friday tonight. We used to do Monday's. (But not every Monday.) Rhizo, I will be right there! Oh, I do love sausage gravy. Now I'll be dreaming about it!! Jasdip, a turkey breast really goes a long way, doesn't it? Okay by me, I love it. Nice dinner--does your cabbage soup have a lot of different veggies in it? Mine does. I use the recipe from the cabbage soup diet. Very yummy!

Glenda, I don't think I've ever seen quesadillas with sauce on top. Harry orders them often when we eat out. I bought a quesadilla maker to make them at home, but the results were iffy. Can't put a lot of filling in them or they make a mess. Shirley, your dinner sounds great, but you would be welcomed here, too. Someday I have to learn I'm not cooking for a crowd! Thanks for the rain, Mary. Glad you got to dry out a little, anyway. My Sis-I-L had 5 feeders on her porch and those hummers were just thick. They have to fill them several times a day. When we were there it must've been dinner time because every feeder had at least 3 birds and they were so thick in the trees you could easily see the little things. It was a sight!! They weren't even trying to fight each other off.

Glenda, nice way for a restaurant to lose customers, huh? You aren't doing so good this week--that's two days in a row for bad dinners. At least yesterday, you got dinner! Seagrass, your meals are likely more tasty than restaurant meals anyway. But it is nice not to have to cook all the time. Sue, sure hope you feel better. I bought some Alka-Seltzer Plus cold med. in case I feel a cold coming on. It works well for me. Chicken soup always helps, too. Jasdip, I was able to eat three saltines with ham salad on top! Woohoo!! Also ate a mug of noodle soup. Of course, I'd rather have your taco salad :-( Isn't it nice to see the sun shining? Mary, I bet 38 did feel like a heat wave after that 19 you had the other morning. I'm waiting until next week to clean. The house stays pretty clean since I'm not cooking. Shirley, I need to make some beef barley soup. It sounds delicious. Glad you had sunshine--it feels so good in the winter. (Guess it isn't winter yet, though.) Jean, you're doing really well with your low-carb meals. You're a saint to fix your DH mashed potatoes when you can't eat them!! Aw Hellion, I'm waitin' for the day I can eat bacon. I think I'll just fry up a whole pound and have at it :-) Georgysmom, I forgot you were in Florida with your GF's. Sure wish you had better weather, but I just know you're having a great time anyway. I'll say a prayer to the weather gods for nice, sunny, warm days the rest of the week.

Marilyn3444 - thank you so much for the recipe. I'll make it soon. I spent the better part of the day prepping for and traveling to and from the hospital for a CT scan. Very chilly and rainy here. Took some pork and kraut I made last month out of the freezer and heated it in the oven. Pan roasted the rest of the "Tiny Potatoes" I got at a Trader Joe's earlier in the week. We had some crusty rolls and whole grain mustard with it all. I'm very tired. Have to wait until Tuesday to hear what is causing this pain. It's hard not to worry.

Dinner was frozen pizza for hubby & I had a bagel. The Specialist took longer then I thought, the place was packed.
I will have surgery on my left eye 7/25 & the right eye 8/12 as the week in between he is on vacation. The only bad thing is the place nearer to where we live is booked through Aug & the other office 1 1/2 hrs away could do it those days. Just love living in the boon docks where nothing is close.
More rain over the weekend

Another hot day on the golf course, followed by lunch and then ran some errands. Tonight is clean out the refrigerator night. I've already told DH it's every man for himself tonight. He can use the toaster oven or microwave just as well as I can. I'm having the left over pasta. YUM!

Ruthie, we have chili in the summer, too. It tastes good any time of year.

Shirley, catfish is a really good fish. When we lived by the river a bunch of us would go fishing and take the catch home, clean and fry them up with homemade hushpuppies, cheese grits and whatever other people brought for dinner. Best meals ever! (Almost.) Your dinner sounds pretty darned good!!

Mary, glad you're getting your eyes over with before your knee surgery. Doctors always take longer than we think they should. I sure found that out this week!

Raven, if I had a vote, it'd be for tacos. I just love them. Plus they're so easy.

It's always good to have a clean-out night, Georgysmom. I don't know how you can stand the heat on the golf course these past few days. Whew!

Susan, OMG that sounds good. We may need to take a trip to Wendy's this weekend. (I looked it up on Wendy's website and now I'm drooling!) Thanks for the tip--didn't know about it until now.
