Football Saturday so we're having muffaletta sandwiches, beet salad and pumpkin pie (Marie Callendar). We both have summer colds and feel sort of icky. What are you having tonight?

Had tea and an English muffin around 3:30p. Then later a taco salad and Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream for dessert. Yep - tasted like pumpkin pie with whipped cream to me, and it even had pieces of pie dough in it! I was real skeptical at first, another shopper and I were discussing whether or not it would taste good when someone else reached around and took a box out of the cooler. I asked her about it, and she said it tasted like nutmeg too. So I took a chance - delicious.

Holy smokes Raven!!! I get bronchitis EVERY time, I don't get just a cold. The coughing hurts like hell, and I get headaches from coughing, and my head feels like it's going to pop off. So I get to the doctor as soon as I can. You must be in total agony! I made the overnight breakfast casserole for myself. Hubby is not an egg-eater, but he thought it looked really good. He had some, and loved it. Egg isn't the main focus, the bread, sausage/ham is. He finished it off for dinner with some corn, and I had leftover ham, potatoes and corn.

No dinner tonight. We went to a birthday brunch, ate too much, and have been dragging around all day. Neither one of us are used to eating heavily at 10:30 in the morning. Left there and went to Costco since we were close, Fred Meyer (there isn't one here locally) then home and had company for a while. Brunch was at a casino. The food is good, I had bacon and tomato omelet, more. And I did gamble a little before we left. I had almost lost my $20, won it back so played some more (slots) and that time I did lose it. DH lost his $5 on a penny machine and quit :) We're not gamblers, and I must say, its a lot more fun when I can break even or win a little. My SIL had begun with $200 and was up to almost $700 in winnings when we left, she has more disposable income than I feel I do.

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.

..Asking me for a recipe isn't usually something I can help with. But I'll try! And I know that I said orzo but I MEANT coucous! But it sure would work with orzo. Fix 1 cup coucous and 1/2 cup red quinoi according to the directions on their labels. Be sure to rinse the quinoa first, and I prefer the red....it tastes nuttier to me. I cook both of them in chicken broth. This salad can be made just with quinoi, but I didn't want to scare my guests. :-) Veggies....to equal about two cups or more : chopped green onions, red bell pepper, english cuke, chick peas (rinsed and drained), halved cherry tomatoes. Use your favorite vinaigrette . I made a lemon dressing with quarter cup fresh lemon juice, quarter cup olive oil, two cloves minced garlic, chopped fresh oregano, sugar, S & P to taste, and a splash of balsamic or other vineger. I didn't use all of the dressing. Add it to the couscous and quinoi while still warm, cover, and chill. When ready to serve, stir and taste to add more dressing if necessary. I added a bit of lemon zest on top for serving and fresh mint from the garden .

Chicken/Stuffing, potato, green beans. I cooked some other items while I was at it so that maybe I'll have enough for several days.

Schoolhouse, at Christmas I always look for eggnog ice cream. It has nutmeg, too and is so good. I also like candy cane ice cream but it sells out faster than they can stock it.

I'd like to have your dinner, Sue!!! The salty sausage and sweet peaches and cottages cheese sound like a winner together.

Fried chicken, mashed 'taters, gravy, green beans.....Dang, why didn't I think of the stuffing in the freezer? Who knows the difference between a turkey and a chicken?

The Great Northern beans was so good last night. I waited for you Patty & Raven but I got tired and proceeded with dinner :o]

I wanted some chicken noodle soup today. I had left over chicken and made a pot of soup.

It's in the 90's here in Houston too Patti. However, I'm at the time of the month and my craving is up. LOL, it sure doesn't care what the weather is like. It wanted beans, then chicken noodle soup, I just had to satisfy it. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to sleep in peace. Dunno yet about tomorrow's craving... :o)
