I had leftover old fashioned gyro pork. It was leftover from a supper I had at the nearby Greek resto on Thursday. I made a salad of Boston lettuce, sorrel, rainbow chard, red onion, and cucumber. I made a batch of blue cheese dressing to go with the salad.

We had the last of the meal our granddaughter sent, along with some warmed croissants and butter.

Finished our anniversary cake, on our 16th Halloween anniversary, and if necessary, we may snitch some Halloween give away candy if our sweet tooth calls. Don't expect any ghosties or goblins at our door since we live waaay out in the sticks in the country.
 
(((the famous....))) Senate Bean Soup

does not get more simple:
navy beans
ham hock
water
simmer till beans tender
remove ham hock, strip meat, return meat to soup, (toss bones . . or other . . .)

salt&pepper to taste
simmer to consistency desired.

as may be obvious . . . how well this goes is highly dependent on the ham hock.
cured&smoked worked for me, but not all hocks are smoked&cured equally.

methinks it better as a soup starter and not 'your whole dinner' dish . . .
tasty, not very exciting tho.
 
Last night was Trick or Treat, but since our kids are grown, we've been taking a hiatus from passing out candy the last few years and have been going out to dinner with friends, instead. Last night, we hit up a casual local place, where I had the prime rib. Wasn't great, wasn't terrible, but we had a fun night out.
