Mondays...blah! What's for dinner to start the week? 09/23

[KatyCooks]

Fried eggs and peanut butter toast. I just discovered we're out of butter!

Er... peanut butter toast??

I'm doing a variation on this:
GRILLED SWISS CHEESE, TUNA AND RED PEPPER SANDWICHES

Toast with peanut butter on it. Not normally had here with eggs, usually toast with butter, but we were out of butter

 

[KatyCooks]

Whoops, did I see CWS peaking through the windows. Sweet, welcome back. And Katy, That sounds like a perfect home style burger.

For once I was thinking ahead. Cooked sausage and burger mix yesterday. Saved the drippings. Cooked a little more sausage and burger and onion today. Made sausage gravy from the drippings. Mixed in a few leftover spoonfuls from the sandwich mix from Sunday, added some cooked carrots, cauliflower and cut up green beans. Herbed up with a little marjoram and garden sage, Mix and Pour into a shallow casserole dish. A 9 X 9 size pan worked this time Top with some hand mashed potatoes and grated cheese. Bake. Voila’ . Cottage pie. My way.

Thanks Whiskadoodle - that was what I was aiming for! I have been trying out a few American recipes since I joined here and it is working out very well so far!

"Your way" Cottage Pie sounds pretty good (and anything that includes cauliflower is going to get my vote).

Parmesan chicken with rice and zucchini with tomato sauce and cheese on top. Mimosa salad to go with. Yum.

Increase font size please. The italics are tough enough
Some of us are getting old

 

[pacanis]

Test.

 

[pacanis]

Yes! I may have found my glitch here!

Sheesh Pac! Even I could read that! (with my glasses on)

 

[Dawgluver]

Test.

Fantastic, Pac!

So glad you found your missing glitch. Hard to be oneself when one is missing one's glitch.

The Glitch is Back!

 

[pacanis]

Sheesh Pac! Even I could read that! (with my glasses on)

Come on now... I didn't say I couldn't read it, but when you are reading post after post and all of a sudden someone uses smaller font and it's in italics... well... it sucks

Fantastic, Pac! Glad you found your glitch, mine's been missing for awhile too. One is not oneself with a missing glitch.

I did some Googling after trying to upload that pic a few times. I increased my "enhanced" security settings.
The question is though, why is that necessary here?
Hopefully it works for a while anyway

...and some of us are already old. I find myself skipping the tiny font posts.

Hah! Remember Maidrite and those large red font posts? Sometimes only a word and a half per line?
But you could read them

Oh well, if you are going to get all technical on me!

*adjusts recently required reading glasses up nose*

 

[Alix]

pacanis, you can adjust the font size on your own computer. And its not italics, its just a different font. You're just NOW having trouble with it? I've been using it for 11 years.

 

[Whiskadoodle]

Hmm, Andy. My post came out in a smaller font? If so, I apologize. DC has been kicking me off Repeatedly mid sentence lately. So I have taken to writing whatever in Word, then c/p it into DC, The fonts to me, show as the same.

Really, I thought you would say someting about cauliflower and I was going to reply just put beans in your ears and don't read that part.

Test.

OOoo pac, if that's your answer sheet you definitely pass!


I short-cutted supper and used a bag of chicken-pasta-veggies in garlic sauce, then plumped it up with extra chicken, broccoli, and a splash of white wine. And salad. Quick and easy-peasy.

 

[taxlady]

We had three kinds of sausage on the grill: a Greek one, a chorizo, and a hot Italian. They were "artisan" sausages from our trip to Cornwall, ON. They were good, but disappointing for artisan sausages. I have made better Italian sausage. We also had corn on the cob (also from Cornwall) and tiny potatoes.

 

[taxlady]

Test.

That, as usual, looks yummy, but what a lot of food! Is that chicken under the white stuff?

 

[PrincessFiona60]

I think it was baby reds under sour cream.

 

[pacanis]

I think it was baby reds under sour cream.

Yep. Sour cream on smashed redskins.

And I've got a little piece of steak left I plan on having this morning on some garlic toast with scrambled eggs. I don't always finish the food on my plate, but I hate going back for seconds, so I pile it on
