That sounds so much better than what we ate. Tomorrow I am going to make a special effort to cook something goodHomemade chicken pot pie (the mister made the filling and I made the pie crust) and a glass (so far) of Apothic Red. This was a poop day at work, so wine was called for
It was the best we've ever made, I think. I adjusted the seasonings and recommended the sauce be thickened a little before we capped it with the crust and slang it forth into the oven, but Mark did all the prep and cooking while I took a wee nap. He's a keeper, I thinkThat sounds so much better than what we ate. Tomorrow I am going to make a special effort to cook something good
Tonight was beef and broccoli over rice. SO good.
Mum came around and made me dinner for tonight, she made satay chicken kebab things and salad.
My niece came over and made a lovely crock pot roast which lasted several days.
Breakfast for dinner tonight--waffles, hash browns, scrambled eggs, sausage, and orange juice. I ate light all day to leave room (and calories--lol) for the fiesta.

Making some vegetable soup and just started on a loaf of bread - although it won't actually go with the soup as I decided to make cinnamon raisin bread this time.
Here's a couple of loafs I made while Andy was home (the smaller one was made with Best for Bread flour and the one on the right was made with all purpose flour) - same recipe but different results

Haha - okay send it to me in a "Conversation"Oh Neesy!
Those look positively intoxicating! You need my address.
So - I made that Jewish bread (Challah) yesterday but since I had it timed for 30 minutes and then went to post on this Board, I kinda forgot about it. - It ended up a wee bit on the dark side [or as they used to call it in Scotland - "well-fired"].
Still edible but if I made it again I would give it 20 to 25 minutes, not 30.
Last night I made Swiss steak which we ate with sauteed rice and vegetables.
Why are those beans so white? Did you forget the molasses?
I plan to make a huge pot of beans this week. Thursday.
(Because I have to pick up kid at school, I want someone here so I can leave oven on. DH will be home because he has an MRI in the morning. And...obviously he does not want beans before going for his tests this week.

Last night we had a ham with mashed potatoes. Tonight I will make scalloped potatoes with the left-over ham.

They are navy beans, that's the natural color. Butter beans and some lima beans are the same color. I don't like molasses unless I'm making baked beans.Why are those beans so white? Did you forget the molasses?

I never considered cooking navy beans any way other than baked. If they were served to me....they would then be coated in molasses.
I guess you don’t eat molasses sandwiches then? Skip the jam....pb & molasses. (In my home, pb substitute and molasses.)
Molasses is very southern so I don't know why I never cook with it. Yes, I love peanut butter and molasses sandwiches with chili. That was a staple in elementary school. Usually, when I'm cooking dry beans, I don't like to season them with anything but salt. I want the flavor to be as natural to that particular bean as possible. Once in a while I may toss in an onion.
