What are you all having this evening. I am not having anything, had my left over steak and sweet potato earlier this afternoon. What goodness are you having tonight?

We bought an eggplant at the market on Saturday, specifically for caponata. I finally made it today. I took a pic of it in the skillet, as I served it with leftover shrimp etouffee and a stiry-fry to make room in the frig. Alas, the caponata grew, so I didn't make any extra room in the frig, with the amount of leftover we have.

We were under the weather, tornado weather that is.... (although thankfully all we got was wind and rain). So I made something early in the afternoon that was portable in case we had to eat in the basement. I made a roast beef wrap (gluten-free) with chili lime mayo, pepper jack cheese and fresh leaf lettuce from the garden. As a side dish I made a pasta salad with the cutest little gluten-free pasta O's (anellini) - a little pasta and LOTS of veggies dressed with Olive Garden Light Italian Dressing and a couple shakes of McCormick Salad Supreme. Baked Crushed Pineapple for dessert.

Really hit the spot. I've been thinking about those salmon cakes for a week.To make a basic Hawaiian macaroni salad, you don’t need a recipe; just follow these guidelines: The pasta: Cook 1 pound elbow macaroni (for really local style, cook until soft and fat, but you can go al dente if you prefer). The flavoring: Stir in ¼ cup very finely grated onion. Not minced, chopped or sliced—grated. It should be liquidy (this is how they do it at Diner’s, a local eatery in Kalihi). The mayo: At least 2½ cups for real local style. But there are no rules, so use less if you like. Or more. The add-ins: Carrots, watercress, celery, hard-boiled eggs, pickle relish (try some frozen, thawed peas) whatever suits you. The finale: Salt and pepper, to taste. Stir well; refrigerate. * I don't use pickle relish. I add some grated carrots, dill pickle (diced fine) some grated cheddar cheese and sliced black olives.

My husband came home this afternoon to move a big winch that he had sold. He borrowed a trailer to haul it on, and it was a wreck....most of the bed rotted out or missing. Had four tires....but one of those was missing. The winch weighed about 1000 lb....big like for a Gulf shrimp boat. He managed to get it loaded and then bottomed out trying to drive out. I pulled him out with my truck and then when he went over the wooden culvert at the front gate, pulled some of that up too and it got stuck under the trailer. I say all this to say that it makes me a nervous wreck to help him because he doesn't know the word "stop" and he takes too many chances. Then I had to follow him with my flashers on because the trailer had no tail lights. Once he got it unloaded, had to follow him back to where he had picked up the trailer. It was well past dark by then. He went back to his boat to go shrimping in the morning and I came on home. I stopped at Sonic and got a double meat hamburger for me and one with just meat and bread, for Gertie, my dog, that rode along with me.

Egg fu yung!! Yum! That is my most favorite Asian dinner item........not bad for brunch, either :-) I have made it several time myself but it never quite matches the deliciousness of the Chinese take-out kind. Unfortunately, the only decent Chinese restaurants in the vicinity are at least a half hour drive and a ferry ride away. I will often pick up an order to go when I am over on that side. Oddly, we have all manner of great ethnic restaurants where I live - Thai, Indian, Vietnamese, Japanese, Greek, Italian, Mexican by the bucketful - but NO Chinese!! What's up with that?? I fixed spaghetti and meatballs with jarred marinara and frozen meatballs :-) Fast and easy but more leftovers than I need!

Leftovers. Either bbq chicken wings or pastrami sandwiches. Whichever it is, will be served with sliced tomatoes and watermelon. A cool summer meal for a hot summer day.

Salmon patties, made with canned salmon, a little minced onion and green pepper, and dusted with corn meal before browning in ghee....we like them a bit crunchy on the edges.

Made a quinoa salad this morning with all kinds of fresh, raw veggies including a bit of seeded jalapeno for some nice heat. It's been marinating in a light vinaigrette all day.

I'm going to slice a juicy tomato from the garden just before we eat and serve everything with a bowl of tzatziki with fresh dill on the side.

Steaks, sweet potato, coleslaw and broccoli. Steaks were from a local farmer.

Picked up pasties from a local restaurant where they make Grandma's recipe. Have heard they are very good! Will let you know.

Fried chicken (from Popeye's, love that stuff!). and a big bowl of pink slaw. Finely shredded cabbage and lots of grated radishes with poppy seed dressing. The recent threads on radishes and cole slaw had me drooling.

Home made hamburgers. I have been exhausted the past couple of days, and I was doing good to do that.
