GEEZ! I'm sure that my husband wishes this is what's for dinner!
This was his appetizer from back in 2019 when we were in San Antonio Texas.



Instead, we'll be trying something new-to-us for our main meal today.
I'll be combining this Noodle dish with some b/s Chicken as well some Snow Peas.

What's goin' on your plate?

Instead of Oysters on the half shell, we will have thawed white beans with ham hocks. Works for us on a cold day with a threat of freeze for tomorrow morning.

Dessert to be figured out later.

Freezer diving dinner tonight.

Oh, but I love oysters. I need to keep up on my National Made-Up Celebrations!

We will have some items that came from the mass of meat that has been recently (yesterday) smoked! Also side salads....maybe I will make some collards. Mmmm.....collards.

No oysters, but we are having the last of our crawdads from the freezer.

LT, I tried to look up what the difference in the numbering of pasta, spaghetti in particular and came up with nothinin'
I usually buy Barilla Brand "Thick Spaghetti" #7
so would #9 be even thicker?
Curious minds want to know

 

[Kaneohegirlinaz]

Crawfish and grits.

GIMME!!!

One day I'll make that, I promise!

 

[Whiskadoodle]

I think our oysters on the half shell more closely resembles grilled cheese sammies and leftover cowboy beans.

 

[taxlady]

I have a migraine, so we ordered from the local Lebanese resto.

 

[Chief Longwind Of The North]

P.A.G is making her version of white chili tonight. Looking forward to that.

[Cooking Goddess]

Nothing fancy, just BFD. We split a mushroom and Swiss cheese omelet, accompanied by sausage links and hash browns.

 

[Kathleen]

I had homemade pastrami on rye with tomatoes. Frank had pulled pork with potato salad. All part of his huge smoker-fest.

DH was not wild about this one.
He chomped on a huge forkful of noodles and promptly pushed his plate
towards me, "Here, you eat this" and made himself a Ham & Cheese sandwich
He said that it was too sour for his taste (Tamarind I suspect) but I found it quite tasty.
There was no way I was going to eat both plates, so that will be lunch
