Soon to be 6 PM and I'm clueless. It's been a big day at the FL Pro Photographers show and I'm beat after the trip. This may be a good night for tomato soup and a cheese sandwich as long as he Mrs. will do the honors.

I made the cheeseburgers that I was going to have on Friday. Fried up some onions and mushrooms for the burgers, also made wild rice and green beans.

Default The Agenda - Week of August 24-29

Tonight at my dinner table, the feature was pan-grilled pork chops and a veggie medley.

This week at the Case abode, I'll be bringing in some of these selections: grilled chicken, pork tenderloin roast, lasagna, garlic cheese bread (with 3 cheeses), and chicken fried rice. I'm even thinking about a breakfast-for-supper situation, as I plan to make my world-famous (well, kind of....) huevos rancheros. I've got some Pace picante sauce to go with it on the side should I make it.

Hope your week is a good week and enjoy all your good eats. Bon appetit!

Had a long day of housecleaning, but boy, was it worth it. The room that I insist on calling "the spare bedroom" is looking more and more just like that, and less and less like a fraternity boy's occasional quarters, which is A Good Thing. I love my children deeply, but I love them best of all when they and their belongings live somewhere else besides my house. We're getting there, albeit slowly.

And with a good day's work behind us, both the spouse and I are tired and sore, to say nothing of sneezing from all the dust, so supper tonight is very much on the simple side. We're making big, juicy burgers, to be topped with tomato slices from the garden, with oven-baked fries on the side. Simple, solid, and satisfying, just what the doctor ordered.

And speaking of those tomatoes from the garden, a quick glance in the back yard confirms that it is once again time for the Tomato Fairy to go into action, dropping little bags of orphan tomatoes on the doorsteps of all our neighbors. Fortunately, most of them seem to like 'maters, or I suspect we'd have been ridden out of the neighborhood a long time ago.

Happy Sunday evening to all, and best wishes for a good week!

I can tell you what our lad did with the two he bought on sale earlier this week.

Slice down in 3/4" to 1" thick slices. Heat a bit of olive oil in a skillet and sear each side of each medallion (may need to do this in batches, if your skillet won't hold all of them). Remove pork from the pan, if necessary add a bit more oil and saute sliced onions and sliced mushrooms with a clove or two of crushed garlic. Add a cup or so of wine to deglaze the pan, return the medallions to the pan and turn down the heat. Cover and cook for about 10 minutes. Remove the lid and allow the liquid to reduce for another five minutes or so. Serve with your choice of starch (potatoes, noodles, rice or good crusty bread).

So Hubby and I dropped the kids off to the WKids at our local Wegmans... for those of you who are unfamiliar with WKids... our local grocer has a child watch with a ton of toys, a climbing maze, sitters... they are great and FREE for one hour of shopping! VERY handy for shopping and they are awesome there....I use them every chance I get... anyway- since I refused to cook tonight (as I have said- don't cook on Sundays)... we got some yummy sushi and a salad for dinner... ate there and did some quick minor shopping before our hour was up... it was a nice little break for dinner...very quiet... came home and fed the kids the left over pizza...
