Sorry to say, but this site has been so depressing for a few days. I thought I'd ask an average, everyday question....to make us all feel a little more normal today.
I made Eggplant Lasagna, and my BIL and SIL are coming for dinner. They leave for Cali tomorrow to see their beautiful grand daughter.
Sorry, sometimes we just need some REGULAR conversation.......or at least THIS caregiver does.
we are having chicken breast fillets sauted in olive oil, steamed broccoli, and 2 potatoes peeled, cubed, boiled and after draining the water, add some butter and salt, pepper and fresh parsley. Very simple, takes about 30 minutes to make.
There are a bazillion ways to fix chicken if you get bored, captain. What did you have with it?
just greasy fried chicken for now .
Captain, if you have the ability to fry chicken, why can't you prepare a stir-fry meal, with healthy fresh veggies? All in one pan on one burner. Your body would thank you! :)
yea, i do love a stir fry . was making them for mom a lot in her last few months . potato, chicken breast , onion , green beans, brocc , caulif , carrot . she loved fried potato wedges too . not terribly healthy but good tasting .. i dont have anyone to cook for -- takes the fun right out of it ..
And speaking of spectacular, my gazpacho was awesome tonight! Grilled cheese with bacon sandwiches set it off just fine. :)
i had jail food tonight -- from ednas nh . chicken salad sandwich . it wasnt very good , too sour, but it brought back a great memory of moms last 3 months of life . i was making some kicka** chicken salad and serving it on halves of brotchen rolls . mom and the hospice visitors complimented the food after they were done eating . they were so good that nobody said a word while eating them ..
i took edna a slice of restaurant coconut cream pie this evening . an old lady who was sitting in the hall with edna said she loved coconut so i gave her half of ednas slice of pie . i made two people happy for 3 bucks and 55 cents . thats pretty good economics ..
d*mnt hadnuff . your screenname compels me to listen to " touch too much " by ac dc .. i had some kind of cracked out salad at nh yesterday . i recognized mayo , raisins , broccoli . it really wasnt bad ..
shes got a tou -- ouch , a touch too much ..
I must be hungry because, even though it's hot as h*ll here, I'm broiling thick cut pork chops dusted with caraway seeds then baked on top of sauerkraut, green beans, beets and cottage cheese. I must be nuts!
your pork chops sound good , jeannette . try em layered in a bread pan someday with light apple stuffing between each . a can of whole kernel corn doesnt hurt the stuffing one bit .. tramadol and beer for side dishes ..
stir fry needs water chestnuts imo ..
Had granddaughter, her husband, and their two kids over tonight. We had tortilla chips, salsa, and guacamole, small bowls of gazpacho for starters, then fish tacos (cabbage, tomatoes, cilantro, and an awesome sauce), followed by cookie brownies. A success.
