We were invited to a pre-opening of a new oriental restaurant today. Mom and Pop owned, everything fresh and delicious. Very nice young couple, hope they do well.

We went to the Olive Garden for our supper tonight and brought home enough food for another meal.

Cobb salad.............left over from lunch yesterday. I'm looking forward to it!

I braised some boneless short ribs the other day and some were left over. I used those as a basis for fajitas. Served with brown rice that had locally made salsa and locally grown corn in it.

I made egg salad to use up some boiled eggs. On my own today, so that will suffice along with fresh apricots slices.

We went to my brother-in-laws place, he and his wife had cooked ribs & 3 kinds of salads (potato, caesar & green). Cake and fresh berries for dessert. It was lovely. Always nice when I don't have to cook!

I made mild italian sausage with oniond and green peppers. Had sausage rolls for them and corn on the cob. Cake for dessert

Not sure which meal was my main one. Had ground turkey cooked with mixed greens for breakfast, and sweet potato with fried eggs for supper. Just not very hungry today.

A friend made me lunch. It was ground turkey, zucchini and spinach leaves. YUM!

Fettucine alfredo and garlic bread.

TV dinner for me. It was surprisingly tasty. For dessert, Trisha Yearwood's skillet almond shortbread, with strawberries and whipped cream. Yummy!

It's hot here today-98 in the shade! A cold dinner sounded good, so I made a cold Asian noodle salad topped with pea pods, mushrooms and thin sliced steak. I tried a new dressing recipe--and it was delicious!

Braised pork sirloin, mushroom gravy, mashed potatoes, spinach salad with dried cherries and toasted almonds. We haven't eaten yet, I'm still in and out pulling some weeds, waiting to make sure all the neighbors are inside to spray some deer repellent ;0)

I went to a potluck picnic at a local park with my senior group. Lots of good food.

I've had two meals and some snacks at work. Worked 4 hours today. Have to work two twelves this weekend. I guess my main meal was the Wendy's cheeseburger deluxe I had on the way home tonight. Not enough time before I go to bed to eat anything here. Going to do some yoga and go to bed. Really hating the switch in shifts, between evening/nights and then weekend dayshift.

Stuffed peppers. I like them stuffed with a mix of cooked rice, a little browned hamburger, and diced onion. I added a few spices to the tomato soup the peppers are cooked in and it was pretty good!

Oh, yummmmm I LOVE stuffed peppers. I don't brown my burger I just mix it with white rice (heavy on the rice), s&p pour tomato sauce over them with 1/4 can of water and bake. Now I really want some. Maybe Sunday since I already planned chicken pot pie for tomorrow.

Gadgets - I made that Wednesday ... baked an 11 lb ham and made a huge pot of Southern green beans and taters.

I made shrimp salads for dinner tonight. Should go down and get some pintos soaking for a pot of ham and beans tomorrow.

I love stuffed peppers too. I add garlic slices, and pickled jalapenos and top with tomato sauce and cheddar cheese.

I had an omelette with avocado, mushrooms, salsa, cheese and cream cheese. It was yummy.

We had homemade Kung Pao Chicken last night, and leftovers tonight.

Just got home from our dinner out. I had the special, a fried pork cutlet, okra and homemade mashed potatoes with a tiny serving of fresh banana pudding. Hubby had the grilled fish, baked potato, and black eyes. I have half of it for lunch tomorrow.

Steak on the grill, corn from a roadside stand, green beans and beets from my garden. Gotta love summer!

We split a pepperoni and sausage pizza.

Big pot of pinto beans and ham with cornbread tonight. I am stuffed.

Grandson's birthday party was held in the afternoon. Went back to their house for gift unwrapping and finally left at 7:30. Stopped at a diner and had chicken noodle soup, chicken fried steak, baked potato, mixed steamed veggies and french bread and butter with iced tea. Burp.
