What's for dinner Thursday?

12 years ago

Sorry I'm late. My phone has been ringing all day with people kindly reminding me that I turned 70 today! A neighbor down the street made me a loaf of zucchini bread, which I froze to enjoy in the future. But my ear is sore from too much telephone time :-) It's a good way to spend a birthday, though. Talking with friends!!

I pureed the vegetable beef soup from the freezer, so some of that will be dinner. I have been making an effort to eat more to gain weight/strength back. I have gained 4 pounds, but a lot of it's water from that salty Lipton soup.

What do you have planned for your dinner?

Happy Birthday Patti, glad to hear you are eating more, at least trying to.

I shopped with Cheryl, Amber and Alyssa today after we went to Alyssa's Toddler Time in town. I shopped in Hobby Lobby and got some good deals on clearance fabric. Lunch was Fazoli's with a coupon for each of us. $.99 pasta and bread sticks if you bought a beverage. Supper for me was just some cornbread and milk.

wow, chicken livers... haven't had them in a LONG time. Sauteed chicken livers used to be a comfort food for me! Most people I know now would rather starve than be forced to eat a chicken liver. I can't imagine a restaurant selling them. lol! Great. Now I'm craving either chicken liver, beef liver, or liverwurst. ;p Good thing I have a chocolate cake in the oven! :)

Lots of variety for dinner this evening! Shirley, I love days that have no interruptions. Even days that I plan to stay home and get caught up on things, there are usually reasons to head out or someone comes over. Stuffed peppers sure sound good! Pam a BLT is good anytime. That's usually what hubby orders when we go out for breakfast (he doesn't do eggs) Angela we had corn on the cob on the weekend and nuked it with the husks on. Have you tried that? OF we were in a store today and the Halloween stuff was out along with back-to-school supplies. Rhizo, I love the sound of your dinner every time you have that! B.e. peas I doubt I would like but that would be easy to leave out. I remember you said once it was a mix that you buy. Phyllis, eating frozen grapes made me smile, then I saw the radish sandwich. I feel sorry for you LOL. Maybe we should all send you a bit of our dinners, and you'd have a feast! KIttiemom, everytime I see you having shrimp scampi I want it. But we never buy shrimp. I'm going to have to just buy a bag of frozen ones once and for all and make it. :)

Soft foods...yuck!!! I had sinus surgery last Friday and still can't do any chewing for another week. I am sick of yogurt, broth, mashed potatoes, oatmeal, etc... My dream meal for tonight is a crusty sourdough baguette slice topped with olive tapenade. My entree will be a steak with sautÃÂ©ed mushrooms and a ceasar salad and more crusty bread! A big peanut butter cookie for dessert!

This won't be the healthiest dinner posted, but I've had about 30 interruptions today and I don't even have sheets back on the bed from this mornings laundry yet. Just sat down to do DH's invoicing, I'm having two Tylenol and a glass of iced tea. Asked DH, would you like bacon, toast and eggs, or do you want to grill hamburgers for us, and he said bacon and eggs ;)

Happy Birthday, Miss Patti.

I had beef/gravy over a potato, salad, pears w/plain greek yogurt.

Glad to hear you're graduating to homemade soups.

I finished up medical tests that were needed so that I can be a hospice volunteer. Also picked up some lighting items to be used in my mother's house that we have been fixing up to put on the market. Supper tonight will be leftover spaghetti and lima beans.

Happy Birthday, Patti! It is great to have friends to call you with birthday greetings, isn't it?

Happy Birthday Patti. It is so nice you have lots of friends that took the time to call you. I am glad to hear you are trying to eat more, right now that is what you need to get your strength back.

To answer your question I have never been a good sleeper but as I got older it has gotten worse. If I sleep 3 hrs at night that is a lot for me & that is not 3 hrs at one time. I will not take a prescription to make me sleep & I have tried everything that anyone has told me works. It is good that you are sleeping, you will get your strength back faster if you are well rested.

After PT today I made a big pan of ziti bake & 2 loafs of homemade bread. Dinner was good.

Happy birthday, Patti!

I'm going to make a batch of my mixed rice and grains, add a can each of black beans, pinto beans, and chopped tomatoes/jalapenos. Chopped onions and g. peppers. Lots of Penzeys Southwest seasoning (salt free)! I'll probably serve it on a soft tortilla and a bed of baby spinach with Greek yogurt. No meat in this meal.

A very blessed birthday to you Ms Patti

I had a job interview this morning. Not a job I particularly want, at Kohl's. Part time, at minimum wage. You should have seen my face when they told me what the hourly wage was! Then I ran errands. To the Goodwill, picked up some clothes and odds and ends. To the dollar store, the bank and Hobby Lobby.

We had juicy, messy, drippy DELICIOUS hamburgers and chips for dinner. Gonna finish up that tuxedo mousse cake tonight. It's our fav.

Sue, that lunch was a real deal! I've never been in Hobby Lobby but I love the name :-) Loved the pix BTW!!

Glenda, well nobody called me young'un today. They were all teasing me about the big 7-0. It's fun that you have everyone over for cards. And good they all bring their own sandwich. Makes it easier to have them more often.

Shirley, that sounds delicious--every bit of it!

Mary, your dinner sounds delicious, too. Glad you felt like getting in the kitchen after PT!

Rhizo, that is going to be a great dinner and if you have leftovers, you could always add meat if you wanted. But it sounds pretty good like it is.

Thanks all for the birthday wishes. You can call me Old Patti now :-)

Happy Birthday Patti! We got chili at a local restaurant tonight. Neither of us ate lunch, so we were starving by the time I got of work.

Happy Birthday Patti!

DH and I are going to a Banquet at a local winery. Meal choices are some type of chicken and also braised short ribs over polenta. We both chose short ribs. Looking forward to it and the wine tasting.
