What's for Dinner Tonight?

Brown bag Calzone heated in the OT room microwave, then some fudge from one of my patients.. she said it came from someplace in Tennessee that's supposed to be the best place ever.
It was good fudge. Had 3 pieces. lol
 
Just started sautéing the thinly sliced onions and red peppers for some bratwurst that will make tonights dinner. There is a little tip of skin from the end of my left thumb and some blood in there too.
 
Daughter and granddaughter came over for the afternoon, so I'm taking them to the Chinese joint for dinner. After working on the taxes most of the day, I don't feel like cooking.
 
Went to my sisters house for a traditional Greek Easter celebration today. Unfortunately I did not get pics as I didn't feel comfortable snapping pics of food at someone else's house. But I really enjoyed it, We had roast lamb, spanikopita, koulourakia, Easter bread, dolmathes, salad, etc.

We are having roast lamb tomorrow with all the fixings. Somewhere I heard a statistic that the average American eats 1 pound of lamb per year. . . in our house we are way above average when it comes to lamb consumption. We have it, on average 2 or 3 times a month.
 
I like Greek food, and have a friend Penny and her brothers Nick and John Pimpas, and sis Paula who are running their late Mother's restaurant here in town.

Kosta's
They have a lot of lamb items on the menu.
I've only prepared lamb a couple of times and those were chops, pan seared.


Oh, I had a Big Mac and a chocolate shake for dinner.
Unhealthy as hell, but it was good.

i get lamb lollipops @ least 2-4 times in a month. so delicious!

blake made buffalo chix sammiches- these ones were 'lil hoagies this time, & i cut/seasoned some fries, made me some really buttery carrots, & then there's my dessert for later if there's room for it. 1 or 2 of them.

no pix. my e-mail won't let me access my accounts.
 
pork/veggie skewers basted w/ an a-1, worcestershire & garlic & sage sauce & the same sauce put aside pre-cooking as a dipping sauce. managed 4 of 'em. was hungry!
grapefruit for dessert.
no pix. my e-mail account was re-set & won't be normal for hours, 24 @ most.
 
Tonight's dinner will be some sort of pasta with the fresh batch of sauce simmering in the big 20 quart Oster slow cooker. Since i had to swap freezers it was time to use up a bunch of last years tomatoes and make a fresh batch.
 
It's almost 2:30 and I still have no real plan for dinner.
After having a piggish breakfast this morning with friends and 3 monster sized cups of coffee, been zipping around like a maniac all day lol
 
pork, (only managed half of that) w/ fork-smushed yukons, gravy, & limas. blake made himself beef/veggie skewers. they were good.

At first I was planning grilled cheese and tomato soup, then it was hmmmmm maybe I'll go to the store and find a good cut of steak that won't have a freaking outrageous price (ha!).. right now your pulled beef sounds good, course I prefer pork, so maybe that.. and sweet potato fries and salad.
Quite frankly, I don't feel like cooking a damned thing today :yum:

We love Sweet Baby Ray's sauce!! Had it last night on boneless spare ribs done on the Weber. Fantastic. Cole Slaw is a great side with BBQ pork IMHO. :biggrin: As you can tell from my avatar, I love to eat!!
 
When I got home from work DD made me a nice juicy cheeseburger last night with pickle, ketchup and raw onion. I made a small salad with just EVOO, vinegar and spices for a side.

Tonight shes making cheese raviolis and I will probably make another little side salad to go with.

Enjoy the day/night everyone. I am off to work soon.
 
lollie, i have 4 or 5 strip steaks in the freezer. i'll send u the 2 i got last week on dry ice.:w00t2: i prefer pork, too, def, though blake is afraid of it after 'it made him ill'. i told him scads of people take thiers medium-rare, how the guidelines were changed, & how they're okay after ingesting it. he won't budge. that is a yummy dinner, btw!

tiredretired, i love sweet baby ray's. i was thinking slaw, too- i'd put it on my sammich w/ some fries (i'm a pittsburgher, so i'm used to primanti sammiches:biggrin:.) luv ur avatar.
 
Thank you Lollie. I get talked to rudely and hung up on for a living! LOL WELL so long as I get get PAID for it thats OK! LOL :whistling:
So do I....sometimes!
Of course the 'talked to rudely' comes from my loveys who know not what they're saying half the time. :smile:
 
My mum, God bless her soul, used to nuke pork until it was shoe leather. She always claimed you would die if it wasn't cooked to an inch of it's life. I love pork medium rare as well. The only way to eat it, IMHO. :biggrin:
