WHAT'S FOR DINNER - DECEMBER 2013

[RecipeReader]

It's going to be warm today, so it's taco night, with corn and black bean salad.

Gosh, from the looks of things, I'd like an invite to anybody's house ;) ;) I haven't been to the grocery in the past two weeks, so the cupboard is getting kinda bare. Tonight, I'll MW a baked potato and serve with sour cream, cheese and chili. It's even "canned" chili that I'm borrowing from my winter emergency stash But, at least I ain't starving. I still have eggs, bacon, sweet potatoes, frozen B. sprouts, plenty of cheeses and crackers....actually, there's no chance of me starving. There's really plenty of "stuff" here. The question is, "do I want to eat it".... I have a pretty hefty grocery list for this week, though.

Felix, I do love your "coup" at Checkers....right on with those fries!!!!

Hi Deepster,
We're having leftovers tonight,but your
more than welcome to join us anytime.

I'm on my way, Shapes ;) ;) Honestly, seeing what you do with leftovers, I don't think you'd ever get a gripe outta me

Anyway, my baked potato last night turned out to be a winner. This was truly one of the "butteriest" taters I've ever seen. I mean the inside of the spud was cooked perfectly....it had to be the particular spud, 'cus I didn't do anything special. It was just a naturally CREAMY potato.

Not sure what I'll do tonight. I'll just wing it, as tomorrow is grocery day, and then I'll have a lot more variety.

Deep, Sometimes a spud is just better than the rest. DON'T know why. But, I have had some WAY better than others.

And, I love a good stuffed or spud topped with whatever. Always a good go to meal.

Sometimes a good a baked spud topped with cheese, bacon, sc, and then a salad is a great meal. WHY not? good and simple.

Morning ...

I woke up to delicious smelling turkey broth/stock in the crock pot
Easy day here; after my crazy day yesterday, I'm looking forward to something a bit less hectic.

Crustless quiche. Using my ham from the other night, shredded potatoes, peppers and onions I think; and, fresh citrus over my garden greens w/poppy seed dressing.

Turns out I'm expected to make dinner tonight. After a marathon work day yesterday, I am utterly uninspired. However, I'm thinking of #recipe1099, with probably frozen peas and...something else...

Sounds good Felix.

Today is homemade ketchup, sloppy joes, banana bread, oven potatoes, chopped salad. I may end up making sandwich rolls too if I don't want to shop for those. I hate going to the market for just one thing...
I forgot to bump down the heat before I turned the oven on now it feels like Florida in here. Oh, Hi! Kim! How'd you get in here? ;)

[Deepster]

Well, I went grocery shopping today for the first time in a few weeks. I have a total smorgasbord of things to choose from. What am I likely to do? After spending the day in town with the elderly friend/neighbor, I am in the mood for simple, quick. I'll probably do cheese, crackers, olives and liverwurst. I just can't face preparing a meal tonight. Like Sue, I am exhausted. I really don't think I could "plan" anything.

I wanted to get a peek and feel of all that cold and snow. I won't stay long ... trust me. My blood freezes at those temps,
But, I hate the store for one thing too. I usually try to make due if I can.
