Paella with pork belly chicharrones, chicken chunks, shrimp. The chicharrones were homemade and spiced like Spanish chorizo, Aleppo pepper, paprika, cumin, salt, pepper, garlic powder.

I used B/S thighs, as they will withstand a lot more cooking abuse than white meat. Mrs. T thinks this is so good that it's company worthy.

I'm doing an Asian soup tonight. It's too dang hot for soup, but I have stuff I need to use up in the fridge before we leave town.

Everyone has great looking and sounding dinners so far!

 

[roadfix]

Pan fried thin sliced ribeye steaks! Mrs RF always gets them thinly sliced. Not good... This is America!

Please don't tell me Mrs RF likes them cooked well-done.

Destroyed would be a better description....

Goulash soup with rolls and a salad.

It's weirdly warm for November, so I made taco salads. They also used up some veggies that were getting old.

I must be slipping...I should have thought of doing Asian salad instead of eating Asian soup with the AC on. Duh... Don't mind me, I'm packing stressed.

 

[Cooking Goddess]

Just make sure you leave all that stress at home, Kay. No need to take it along on vacay.

 

[LPBeier]

I think I had a sausage roll but I am not sure if that was considered my supper or a snack.

The reason for this ditsiness? a) I am in full cake mode doing a 50th birthday cake for 60 people due Saturday at 12 noon. b) I just got my bottom partial plate on Thursday and I am "learning" how to chew food again. So, I am not eating a lot.

But it is great to have a nice smile instead of a toothless grin. I still have to get the top done next year but they don't show.

 

[Just Cooking]

In need of comfort food again, I made biscuits and Italian sausage gravy for two...


Finished off the chocolate pie..

Had wonderful Mayan-style cochinita pork tacos with pickled onions at a favorite Mexican place.

I think that's backwards. Take the stress along and throw it overboard. Wouldn't want to come home and find it.

 

[taxlady]

We ordered Indian food from our favourite Indian resto. It was very enjoyable as usual. Ordered lots of lamb samosas so there would be enough leftover for snacking.

I like the way you think, taxy!

 

[Addie]

I am in week six of this stinking cold. And I have no appetite at all. Monday is grocery day. I am going to take The Ride. As my caretaker Spike will be going with me and he travels for free. I know one thing I am going to be buying. It will be the first thing I order. A steamed lobster. And while that is steaming, I will purchase some Haddock filets, shrimp, shell on, and a box of Salted Cod from Canada. So next week, appetite or not, I will be eating all the foods I love. Hopefully I can start to gain back some of the weight loss that has occurred from this stinking cold that won't quit.

I wish I had that lobster tonight. A nice lobster salad sounds so good. But maybe it is a good thing I don't have the lobster available. I am just not hungry and it would go to waste.
