Had homemade chicken and noodles with homemade chocolate cake for dessert!

Italian sausage and sauce over tofu spaghetti noodles with sautéed green beans on the side. The noodles were ok. Not the real thing but better than not at all.

Hey David, have you ever had spaghetti squash? It's really good and better for you than soy!

Cut it in half, seed it, bake it, make spaghetti out of it.

Yes. I have one on the counter. This wasn’t bad if you just except it wasn’t going to be just like regular pasta. It’s like when you go into a hospital for a few days. If you set your self up to the fact it’s not a 5 star hotel and restaurant. Then you don’t get really disappointed. Lol!  I have another brand made out of some kind of root vegetable to try.

My youngest had his first baseball game of the season and he had a good day in the field and especially on the mound so I let him pick where he wanted to go for lunch.  We went to the nearby J Gumbos but I explained in southern lingo, when they say 'hot' it's not just throwing a little tabasco sauce on it.  We both had the Voodoo chili that you can get as a hoagie (if you don't want rice) and you eat it like biscuits-n-gravy.

Went to a pub last night. Wonderful grilled cheese sandwich and I resisted ordering the potatoes. Nice hazy IPA to wash it down.

[StevenGuthmiller]

Last night, Pork and Peanut Satay.

 

 

 

 

Tonight, Chicken with Fig Sauce, and Brown Rice and Peas with Brown Butter.

After four hours of slow cooking on a low flame, we just knocked some off for dinner.

Funny you should say that. I was in C Co/1st Bn/506th INF as my first duty assignment. Hardcore, Sir!

Actually, I divided the leftover stew into portions and threw them into the freezer. Right next to the three dozen homemade placki (potato pancakes)

I made Saturday.

[SfanGoch]

That's great stuff, Leslie. The peppercorn sauce with or without brandy?

Neither one sounds like anything that anyone should ever put into his mouth!

I know what haggis is, but what the hell is clapshot?

its neep and tatties mashed together  (turnip/swede with mashed potatoes) I'm not surprised with the haggis though, its not allowed in the us,  (apparently its classed as offal) yet you can purchase chicken thats been washed with bleach for some reason, lol. And haggis is awesome IMO. If you are ever in scotland you should try it, as long as its made with a sheeps stomach cos otherwise its just a lie/fake news, lol

 

(Thats just a joke before anyone gets twisted over it)

Haggis was banned from being imported into the U.S. because it contains sheep lung, the decision behind this is that stomach fluids enter the lungs during the butchering process, contaminating them. Haggis, without the sheep, is manufactured and sold by McKean's of Glasgow, which opened a manufacturing facility in Maine.

Haggis without the sheep? Say it isn't so. Oh, the humanity!

[SfanGoch]

Sheep lungs, that is.

Sorta like shepherd's pie made with ground beef. It's called shepherd's pie because it contains lamb and shepherds tend sheep. Make it with chop meat and it's a farmer's pie. Accept no substitutes.

I had pulled pork (Boston Butt), pinto beans, sautee squash, fried cornbread, and sliced radish. Also, sweet tea!

Sorry, no pic......it didn't stay around long enuff!! LOL
