Bon appetit? .... yum! What's on your menu?

[Mary Cole]

Mary I can't help loving that corner nook display space, and thinking a Christmas tree or something would be so lovely. That home looks loved and well cared for. Exciting to envision your family in better times enjoying this new home.

I am as excited as they are about buying this house. Of course, it wasn't our first choice, but God had a hand in us getting this one over any of the others. I also love that little built-in display with an overhead light, on the corner of the wall.

The house I'm buying for Shelley and my grandkids (a family is currently living there, but they are buying a new house for themselves at the same time as we are buying this one)

I bet the kids think it's a dream come true considering the conditions they were living in.... the house looks lovely and in great shape too..... You have a heart of gold Mamma for helping them get into a decent place.

Figured I better fry up my pork cutlets before they go bad... so breaded them up nice and had a nice big one for an early supper, and had sweet and sour sauce with it. .... then later will probably eat the last bowl full of my baked beans.

Well at least I know what I'm having, (not sure yet about the others, am guessing steak) .... Salmon, baby potatoes with butter and cauliflower cheese... Currently on my last coffee on the day and going to write down some more of God's attributes in my ongoing study...

I'm thinking turkey tacos and a green salad................
or maybe we'll go out for something.

Is it typical in the UK for each family member to have an individual meal prepared for them for dinner, as opposed to everyone sitting down and eating the same meal, or is that just something special you do for your family?

Tonight we will have ham steak with baked taters and salad and some more pie
. We bought an Edwards pie and it is very good. To often coconut pie tasts like soap, but not this one.

Your response reminded me of something that occurred in the very early eighties. Newly married to a man with two children from another marriage, the children would come spend every other weekend with us. I would fix a nice dinner and they would turn their noses up at it. It happened once. The next time they came they tried to pull the same thing on me (mind you, their mother never cooked for them, they ate fast food all the time). I just looked at them as they sat there glumly and told them, "Fine. There are hot dogs in the fridge and buns in the cupboard........... you can go zap them in the microwave and have them for dinner." They dished up their plates with what was on the table, and ate it. Never had a problem again............ (heh-heh). They came to love and appreciate my home cooking.

No its not a UK thing, its a this household thing

Just wrote down this awesome sounding recipe for pecan caramel and peanut butter brownies...

 

[caligal]

Change of plans. We were watching Pioneer Woman and she was making pulled pork sandwiches and Mac was just drooling . I have some Loyds pulled pork and chicken tubs in the freezer and fresh buns that I bought yesterday, so that is what is for supper tonight. I'll do the ham supper tomorrow.

We didn't go to Steak n Shake last night like I planned, because Aron wanted to use his Dominos Pizza gift card. So tonight will be a chill mac supreme for me, and whatever he wants. Then I need to drive him back to school so he can play the bass drum with the school band at their high school football game.

You have a lucky family! It’s like growing up in a restaurant where you can have anything on the menu!
Those brownies sound SO good.

Thin crust is the best!

I did up the leftover cold chicken in the broth jelly from cooking it along with a tin of chicken noodle soup. George said he needed chicken soup. Came out like a stew, but it was nice.

Tonight, along with a salad and some brown rice, I had one big King Crab leg, and it was enough.
