Wednesday, What's for Dinner?

10 years ago

last modified: 10 years ago

I spent the entire day yesterday baking and cooking. I made pumpernickel bread, apple crisp, sauerbraten w/ (packaged) noodles and gravy, red cabbage, and German potato salad. It's probably my favorite meal, but it takes so long that I only make it a couple times a year. And to think that I used to make the noodles from scratch too. :p

Today it's cold and rainy... I have a big pot of bean soup on the stove and it smells great.

Wow, and it's not even October yet! You made a real German Oktoberfest meal.

We had sausage on a bun, with homefries and creamed corn. A gorgeous, sunny and cool day today. Cooler tomorrow with temperatures in the teens Celcius.

It's good to see you Party!

I cooked that spiral ham. Along with that was mashed potatoes and beets. Anytime I send Bobby to the garage to get a vegetable either from the freezer or canned on the shelf I can be assured he is going to come in with beets. LOL After dinner I cut the meat off the bone and packaged it for the freezer. Got six packs of meat and a big pack with the bone and the juice from the pan the ham cooked in. Looking forward to 15 bean soup in the near future.

Great meals as usual!!! Shirley, aren't leftovers grand? No thinking of what to cook and easy cleanup. Phyllis, it's nice to take something handy and put your own touches in it. Susan, I had to laugh at you taking yourself physically away from the kitchen to avoid eating more. I agree, the packaged meals are definitely portion-control! Pam, leftover lasagna sounds good! Especially with your snowy weather. Raven the rotisserie chickie and your sides make a great meal! Angela, your dinner sounds so good. I really like the idea of the pasta and shrimp salad. Cherryfizz your meal made my mouth water. Did you use chicken breasts?

I went out to dinner tonight. There were ten of us. We all graduated high school together. In those days we weren't all close friends, but we are congenial and get together a few times a year. I had a nice petite filet with a mushroom sauce.

My day was busy. It was a pretty day here in Ohio, but getting warmer and more humid daily. When I look at far range, it's showing that after Friday rains will move in. I made a stir fry with chicken strips, mixture of spinach and other greens, along with sweet peppers. Had some succotash and sliced tomatoes. Stay safe all of you in the bad weather areas. Shirley

Went to a local restaurant that just opened back up recently after being remodeled. Got half a club sandwich and a cup of tomato basil soup. It was still huge portions and I couldn't finish either one so I brought them home. Been sick for a week now and really didn't feel like cooking anything.

I made a salmon salad with chopped celery, scallions, hard boiled egg, and made Bibb lettuce wraps. Robert had his on a bun.

We went out for a late lunch, early dinner. I had seafood mac and cheese. It was just okay. I wasn't that hungry and brought most of it home. Will probably have it Friday because I'm going out to dinner tomorrow night. DH had a steak. He was happy.

Speaking of Octoberfest, I've been thinking about it for days. I'm thinking Rouladen, spaetzle and red cabbage and apple strudel. Just watching the meat sales now.

jasdip, I had planned ahead for cooking on a rainy day and the forecast was right. Good to see you too! :)

mamatoad, 105 and hot beef too? yikes! it got to 58 here today. :p

kathsgrdn, sorry you're sick! but your turkey club reminds me of a great restaurant near my house when I was younger -- their turkey clubs were on their homemade bread with real sliced turkey breast and they were fantastic!

rhizo, I've never been a fan of salmon, but my Dad made a cabbage and salmon salad that was really good!

georgysmom, YUM on the rouladen!!! Here it's not a question of being on sale, but rather whether you can find the bracciole to begin with! I've never made spaetzle, however. Do you have a favorite recipe?

raven, spaghetti is one of my favorite quick/easy meals!

ellendi6161, sounds good. I love broccoli... another quick/easy favorite of mine is broccoli & garlic w/ pasta. :)

BTW: my bean soup was excellent!!!!!!!!!! :)

baked potato and a glass of milk. Can you tell it was a long day?

Got up at 5:30, met the moving container guy who had a hard time in the mucky, muddy yard from all our rain, went to actual work, worked all day, picked up the boy from school, hour drive to daddy's, 20 minutes to mom's-who took us up the hill to meet the lady who sold her my new dining room suite-loaded the furniture, drove 20 minutes to my new house, showed baby sis around, drove back to daddy's, sat and talked to them for a few minutes, another hour long drive that detoured to buy the washer and dryer I'd already researched, and back home at 8:30PM. Then it was time for homework, showers, and bed. I now I realize why I keep yawning this morning!
