I am home after 24 hours of travel so I don't plan to cook. So plans on cooking steaks tonight wich sounds good to me!

My daughter is away at a freinds for the evening, and I have a rare Saturday night off from playing, so I'm going to do up a pineapple/coconut pork tenderloin served on some basmati. Probably stir fry some sort of veggie while having the music turned up really loud. Drink copious amounts of beer and be in bed early because I have to be at work for 7 tomorrow..so if I am back on the board with some nonsensical ramblings, blame it on the Pilsner...lol!

I decided to make spaghetti tonight. I found out I don't have the spices I need for spaghetti, so I am going to try something different. James often buys taco kits when they are on sale. I don't like to put the taco seasoning in my taco meat, but I don't want to waste it, so I save it for other things, like spicy hamburger casseroles. I asked James if he is up to trying "Mexican Spaghetti" tonight, so we will see how that goes. We are out of corn, so we will probably have broccoli with it.

Two experiments tonight. The mashed potatoes and carrot, with ham casserole. Kartoffelmos med skinketern med billede Alletiders Kogebog The Google translation is only a little weird: Google Translate The original is in Danish.

It's not exciting, but has a very stick-to-your-ribs, comfort food appeal. It would probably appeal to children. According to one comment, some grandchildren cleaned the casserole with their spoons. I probably won't make it again as is, but will do some variations. Herb and spice recommendations anyone?

I also tried LPBeier's mushroom gratin. That was an absolute success. DH, who does not like mushrooms, liked it too.

We also had red and green coleslaw with oil (evoo) and vinegar (organic apple cider vinegar) dressing. I was too tired and too rushed to make anything else.

Oh yes, and French red wine from a box.
