Another rainy, gloomy day but we needed the rain. For dinner we had ham and potato soup and an apple crisp.

Hope that all of you are safe.

Patti, glad to hear you were able to add a little more to your dinner menu. I hope you are feeling better today.

Roasted chicken and veggies on our plates tonight. Homemade rolls as well.

Stay safe!

Patti, sounds like you are able to add some new food to you diet, that is great to hear.

The weather here is bad. Raining all day & the winds are very high. The weather man says the tornado is in Kentucky & headed our way. Where we are it might hit after midnight. I just hope it dies down before it comes our way.

Dinner was a easy one. Hubby had egg & cheese sandwiches & I had a bagel

ok, last night we didn't have what I said...we were spontaneous and went out for shawarmah. OMG..it was so good! Had falafel with it.

So tonight will be what I said last night....his left over steak, and me? I dunno, maybe turkey lettuce wraps

Ran to Fresh Market and bought a link of sweet Italian sausage and a sweet potato to have for lunch.

Been in ever since

They're not predicting good weather where I am in Ohio tonight. I pray that it falls apart before the worst of it comes our way.

Tonight's meal was chicken/egg salad w/lettuce on toast, and a bowl of lima beans.

I pray everyone in the path of this weather stays safe.

Shirley

Hope all stay safe!!!

Tonight we are having spaghetti with red sauce, salad & garlic cheese bread. Before she went to work DD popped off and reminded us that she didn't get off til 7, so I said you can eat when you get home. She replied well who is going to make the sauce, I usually do it. I said I will just who taught you to make red sauce.....it was me!!!!

Our late lunch or supper was baked cod, peas, mac and cheese, applesauce and iced tea. Yes, weather looked really bad here for awhile. Cheryl, Kevin, Amber, Mike and Alyssa all came to wait out the bad weather. Amber and Mike went outside and watched the storm move north and east of us. So it missed us. We gals all stayed in the dining room for the most part since it is underground. Had a nice time coloring and making another pot holder. Everyone is now back home. It is a bit windy here yet and a tiny bit of rain now.

Sweet Betsy, I don't mind rain--in fact, we can always use some. But I sure am afraid of tornadoes. Your dinner sounds outstanding!

Oh Matti, homemade rolls?? With roasted chicken. You must be in heaven!!

Mary, you are one I've been thinking of regarding the storms. Hope you have a basement in case you need to go quickly.

Jean, I've never had shawarmah. I'll have to Google it :-) Glad you enjoyed it. I've never had Indian food, actually.

Glenda, I just love Fresh Market. We don't have one in Ocala but we did in Gainesville and I just loved shopping there.

Shirley, you are NOT in a good place with that terrible storm. At least not according to the Weather Channel. Please stay safe and go to your basement if you have one. That bowl of lima beans is calling my name!

Will be:
White bean stew
Honey Cornbread Muffins

I also made English muffins, apple slices are in the dehydrator, cc cookie dough in the fridge..

Weather has been lovely from the windows...sunny...blue sky..

Cooked applesauce and baked a white cake this morning. Tossed a meatloaf in the oven while it was hot. Snuck out for a few grocery deals. Had an hour this afternoon so repainted the kitchen walls, same color. Kitchens get so nasty! Big winds & rain whipped through. Power went out for 30 seconds, and had to reset the clocks. Scalloped taters just came out of the oven. Spinach. Green Onions. Radishes. But one more round of Happy Hour before chow time.

"But one more round of Happy Hour before chow time"... love that!!

We're going to get wild and wooly weather in the morning from the storms moving into New England.

Dinner is homemade chicken rice soup and some crusty bread.

Mushroom-onion-garlic panini with black olives.

I made a pork roast that was marinated in soy sauce, orange juice, soy sauce, garlic, ginger and some peanut butter.

Roasted the meat and thickened the marinade. Boiled potatoes and asparagus and leeks for dessert. Definitely a keeper.

Laura, your dinner sounds delish--had to LOL at your DD. How soon they forget who taught them everything!!

Sue, I was thinking of you, too. Glad you weren't alone when the storm came through and extra happy it missed you.

Terri, lucky you to be able to see blue skies from your windows. Mine are so dirty!! I thought about making cc cookie dough. I have peanut butter dough in the freezer but my grandson is coming and I'd like to send him home with a bunch of cookies. :-) and turkey, too.

OldFixer, you sure accomplished a lot today. Our electric never goes out for long, just long enough to have to reset the clocks. Hate when that happens! You deserve another happy hour round!!

Seagrass, sure hope that storm has mellowed before it hits your area. My niece works in Boston and takes the train. Hope she's safe, too.

It's cool weather, so back to winter dinner.
Eye roast baked in the oven, with onion and mushroom gravy....mashed potatoes and steamed asparagus with hollindaise sauce.
Holiday bread from Panara for dessert

I sent DH to the grocery store for milk. He came back with a PF Chang's chicken skillet meal & announced that he was cooking that. No complaints from me. We had brown rice with it. It was quite tasty; even more do because I didn't have to cook.

I usually cook things on Sunday afternoon that I don't have time to make during the week. Today I made a huge pot of spaghetti sauce to restock the freezer, so we had spaghetti with an apple-pear caramel crumble for dessert.

Does everyone make dessert everyday??? Our waist-lines couldn't afford dessert every night..how do yall do it??Plus I am not that much of a baker....

We had a very early dinner of pot roast, carrot, onions and mashed potatoes. No dessert here. Enough left over for another night.
