The Kitchen Table

Quiche for me! And your dinner plans? Fri, Sept 20!

12 years ago

{{!gwi}} Dearest friend and I met at Bella's. Planned on our usual, their yummiest spinach salad, BUT they had new crab additions, today.

So I chose crab quiche with a garden salad that had green peas, chopped carrots, and tomato wedges. Mine looked just like the picture.

Viv had the usual spinach salad and gourmet crackers.

Both were delightful!

I had a really good time with my 3 daughters and little Granddaughter today, as our neighbor town had town wide rummages along with the Heritage days. We spent most of our time driving around and going to rummage sales. I really did not buy much, the girls picked out some fabric for me and I bought some and they also picked up some canning jars I needed or will need. They all got things they can use. We had a rather late lunch or it seemed so but probably because we got out early. Ate at Richard's and we gals had the Favorite burger and the salad bar. Alyssa ordered grilled cheese and fries! After I got home the second time, for supper, I had beef sausage sandwich and apple sauce and chocolate milk. Got to keep up my energy, going out again tomorrow with Cheryl.

Oh yeah! Gotta hear about those BJ sitings in the East; don't know if we are quite prepared yet. LOL Started the new WW last evening. The Core Plan is a huge list of foods that you can eat without counting....sounds good, but ya gotta know when you are "satisfied". HAAA!! not likely....I'm eating lots of those Core foods, but tracking the points. So far, I'm not hungry, which leads me to believe that I was straying from the plan a bit with my choices and could account for my major stall; then the 3-pound gain. I'm not worried, as I know the weight will coming off again...I am NEVER GIVING UP!!! In addition to my scheduled classes in the fitness center here, I've been taking a 20-25 minute walk with a colleague about 3-4 times a week during lunch. We get lots of stress out, solve some work-related problems, and I feel great about the 1-2 points I earn! Should boost my losing ways a bit, I hope. Marci, I miss you when you don't post often, but I understand. When my stepdaughters or nieces are around, my opportunity to get near my office is "zero". Whenever I see a daycare (especially in the morning when parents are dropping off), I think of you! Can't wait to get to meet everyone next year. Raeanne, I hope DH was properly dressed when he finally saw the balloon! I'll never forget my MIL's classic line about skylights in a great room or bathroom....."you have absolutely no privacy!" DH and I always howl when we talk about that! She should only know about your experience this morning. LOL Tikanas, I read about the South Beach diet this morning. Because so many people have had such success with it, I thought I might try to tie it in with Weight Watchers. Not sure I can do that easily, so I'll stick with my plan until I hit another stall. Then maybe I'll shake it up a bit again! Amy, please check in with us. Suzanne, you sound so peaceful this morning... Maddie, put down the tissues and come and say "hello". Do you need me to send out some chicken soup? Patti & Dave, hope you both are spared the latest bad weather down there. Jen, Joanne, Gretchen, Besh, KY Susie.....where are you? Take care, eat healthy, and NEVER NEVER GIVE UP! DeeMarie

Ate at the club, Glenda. I was even too tired to heat up the sweet potato fries so I had a dish of ditalini, shrimp salad. It was good. Will finish my sandwich tomorrow night. I'm so glad I have so many left overs in the fridge. I can pick and choose and don't have to cook. That 2$chuck is sounding good to me nanny and I don't drink that much. It would probably really knock me out!

This is my exception to buttermilk on chicken. Fried Buttermilk Chicken Livers from "Southern Fried" by James Villas An excellent cookbook 1 pound chicken livers, trimmed of fat if needed 1 cup buttermilk 2 cups all purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon baking soda Pinch of nutmeg (I do not use. I do not like nutmeg except in sweets.) Salt and pepper to taste. Oil for frying In a bowl, combine livers and buttermilk and let soak for about 5 minutes In a small dish, combine the flour, baking soda, salt, and pepper and mix. In cast iron skillet heat about 1 1/2inches coil to 350*. Drain livers, dredge in flour mixture, drop in oil in batches, Fry till golden brown and crunchy, about 3 minutes, turning once, and drain on paper towels. Serve hot or at room temperature. This can be cut down for how many you want. I usually freeze the livers on a sheet pan and take out what I need.

My that quiche looks delish! Iplayed golf today. Played really well. It's always more fun when you're having a good day. Visited afterwards for a little while and then came straight home and reheated the sweet potato fries from yesterday's lunch and finished up the other half of my turkey and watercress sandwich. I've been taking it easy, playing on the computer and catching up on sone recorded programs.

Tonight for dinner I will probably eat the other half of my sweet potato and finish the crab stuffed shrimp from dinner on Wednesday night. I have some pretty good left overs hanging out in that fridge of mine!
