...and after my "adjustment" by the Mod on that other thread, I'm breakfasting on:

Crow
Humble pie

(Not even wife and Julia Child can make that meal appetizing!)

Yeah, but my primary 2013 Resolution was to be "un-modified" all year! I didn't even make it through the Rose Bowl!

Secondary (Safety) 2013 Resolution: Solve the "Global Warming" crisis. I have a better shot at that one.

I have gotten most of the ingredients for that Julia Child's beef recipe, but for tonight it's my own concocted marinated steak, mashed potatoes, and lima beans.

Since we moved I've promised to cook 6 night a week. So far we've had hot wings, stewed chicken and rice, enchilada casserole.

Tonight will be spaghetti and garlic bread.

I had a slice of pizza while visiting former in laws (ex wife's sisters family). It was veggie pizza.

(if anyone gets a chance I need advice on how to set boundaries with my MIL on my thread in DIVORCE FORUM, please)

Got home somewhat late from seeing Les Miserables and whipped up tilapia baked under a sauce of crushed tomatoes, thinly sliced onions, and canned diced carrots. Served it over some ditalini, with a California Chardonnay.

Grilled cheese and fruit.

I would have preferred Mel's dinner (minus blue cheese)..........LR loves prime rib.

So far I haven't burned anything in a week. And, everything has been at least edible.

Kraft has an excellent website with lots of recipies. I love cooks.com when I get stumped for new ideas. I love casseroles with a salad and nice bakery bread.

White bread?

OMG don't you know what is in that?

Ernest got a truck load of snakes

But yeah, there is a touch of truth in all comedy..

The bread companies really don't care about health anyways..bottom line is profit..thats more important.

So this is news? Nope

But enjoy anyways

I love soup, but DH is a meat and potatoes kind of guy.

I stewed a chicken last week and we ate 7 meals from it - chicken and rice, chicken and rice soup for my lunch at work, chicken salad, enchiladas twice, etc... I was proud of that. First chicken I've ever stewed in my life, or deboned and cleaned.

Thanks for the links, I'll check out Kraft. I am a member at Cooks and Allrecipes.

Pistou, which is an elegant French vegetable soup, HEAVILY spiced with garlic - to the extent that it is oozing through my finger-pores, erasing the letters on my jrtboawf!
