You would be more than welcome Bill! Dinner time has not arrived yet, so I decided to try my hand at making a batch of date filled cookies. My mother made these every Christmas season, and I waited for them with great anticipation every year. Now she has reached the age where she does little in the kitchen any more, so it falls upon me to continue the tradition. These are not the exact recipe that my mother used, but they turned out pretty well. Steve

We cooked the venison this evening. Forgot to take a picture, but it was deerlicious. I see what you did there; very punny! You're really on top of your game! ??

This came from a company in New Jersey courtesy of my sister in law. some years ago, my wife shot two deer on a hunting trip. We ate a lot of venison that fall.
GT4494 Posted December 21, 2020 Posted December 21, 2020 Christmas cookies and eggnog!!! not the most healthy but they sure are good!!!
NYLIBUD Posted December 23, 2020 Posted December 23, 2020 Puppy chow,hmmmmm Puppy Chow, also typically known as monkey munch, muddy buddies, muddy munch, reindeer chow, or doggy bag, is the name for a homemade snack made in the United States. The snack is primarily rooted in Midwestern culture. [2]The recipe's name and ingredients can differ depending on the version, but most recipes will typically include cereal, melted chocolate, peanut butter (or other nut butters), and powdered sugar. Nut free versions can be made using nut butter alternatives, like Notnuts or sun butter. Cereals used in the recipes are usually Chex and/or Crispix. The snack's true origins are not known.
NYLIBUD Posted December 23, 2020 Posted December 23, 2020 Just joking.?.No I actually had a nice large steak at the Cheese Cake Factory...
StevenGuthmiller Posted December 23, 2020 Author Posted December 23, 2020 A couple of days ago, but I had some pork cutlets that I pounded paper thin and fried them up to make Pork Tender sandwiches, and accompanied them with some garlic Yukon Gold potatoes and steamed broccoli with sharp Cheddar and bacon.

StevenGuthmiller Posted December 26, 2020 Author Posted December 26, 2020 Our annual Christmas seafood feast, including broiled lobster and snow crab, garlic shrimp scampi, southern fried catfish and Thai curry mussels. Steve
Muncie Posted December 26, 2020 Posted December 26, 2020 I'll call it lamb stew with key ingredients from good people. Friends at the local gas station gave me a bottle of Ecliptic Brewing Tiramisu Stout a couple of days ago - it's in the stew. Needed flour to brown the lamb so it finishes cooking in the stew. A small package of four is five pounds, use a cup for something and the rest goes in the cupboard - no idea how long it's been there. Bakery gave me a cup of fresh flour yesterday morning. Added onions, mushrooms, yellow pepper, potatoes and a little garlic, salt and pepper. 350 for three hours. Cooking now, house smells great. Will add some fresh tomatoes when it gets down to 15 minutes to go. Visiting friends yesterday and also picked up a couple of other goodies for dinner - Pecan pie for desert (but it's gone already) and fresh home baked rolls from an old family recipe About an hour away from primetime.

Bucky Posted January 2, 2021 Posted January 2, 2021 Mrs. Bucky and myself just finished off a meal consisting of oven-baked thick cut bacon, cut-leaf spinach, and black eyed peas from the pressure cooker. Served up with coffee and SunDrop. Sorry....no pics. (It didn't last long enough to take pics!)
JollySipper Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 For lunch today...... Salami from Land 'o Frost (they make the best sandwich meats!), smoked Gouda cheese, and dijon mustard on wheat bread, and some Sun Chips!
Tom Geiger Posted January 8, 2021 Posted January 8, 2021 My wife: “There’s nothing in the house to eat.” Me: “Hold my beer!” We had Rotini in marinara sauce with andouille sausage, onion, kidney beans and peas”. AKA- Stuff we had around.
Danno Posted January 8, 2021 Posted January 8, 2021 Looks good. Sometimes there's nothing better than a little "Leftover Roundup" or "Cupboard Casserole." ??
Rodent Posted January 8, 2021 Posted January 8, 2021 Sometimes the leftovers are better than the first round.
Mike Williams Posted January 8, 2021 Posted January 8, 2021 @Tom Geiger, good one! In Europe, the "poor folks kitchen" in all countries, have amazing old recipes. Still today, the best food comes from bashing together what you have. Basically, raid the fridge and add what's grown in your immediate area, or what you grow yourself. I like the Italian version of the poor folk's kitchen.....simply sensational!
JollySipper Posted January 17, 2021 Posted January 17, 2021 Made myself a steak sandwich yesterday......
Tom Geiger Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 Tonight’s dish.. kinda a gumbo.. Chicken, sausage, rice, beans, onion, and peppers.
Venom Posted January 25, 2021 Posted January 25, 2021 Wild caught Alaskan Sockeye and buttered broccoli
cobraman Posted March 20, 2021 Posted March 20, 2021 Pizza and garlic knots at Westgate in Glendale , Az .
John M. Posted March 23, 2021 Posted March 23, 2021 Chicken parmesan dinner with ziti pasta and tomato sauce and chocolate cake for desert. I'm still stuffed but it was good. A place down the street from me made it. I'm not exactly a chef.
Tom Geiger Posted March 23, 2021 Posted March 23, 2021 Pasta with chicken and sausage. Threw in peas and black olives for interest. Just ate some leftover for lunch!
metalhead Posted March 27, 2021 Posted March 27, 2021 Philly cheesesteaks for dinner tonight! Although this is the simple version. Just steak and onions with provolone cheese on a fresh sub roll.
StevenGuthmiller Posted March 27, 2021 Author Posted March 27, 2021 (edited) I haven't posted here for a while, but I do have some photos from our recent vacation to show. On the night before we flew out, we stopped at Chevy's by the Mall of America in Bloomington Minnesota and ordered far more "Mixed Grille" fajitas than we could ever eat. Once in the Phoenix area, we made a trip to the small copper mining town of Jerome Arizona, where we had a nice lunch of pulled pork sandwiches and beans at "Bobby D's BBQ". On our last night in the Phoenix area, we were directed by a friend to a very nice restaurant called "St Francis". Very good service and terrific food. I had "Thai Style Mussels" and "Grits Stuffed Shrimp" from the appetizer menu for my meal, and my wife had "Seared Scallops with Risotto". Delicious! Steve Edited March 27, 2021 by StevenGuthmiller
