Debating on defrosting the last of the on sale pork chops. Now these last packs are the gigantic ones, and would probably be great stuffed. Any suggestions? The last few nights they were prepared lightly seasoned and floured and fried.
Also thinking about the rump roast in the freezer-too many choices!
Spareribs tonight. I have leftover artichoke cheese dip from last night and I'm thinking of using it in a kind of scalloped potato dish. I'm thinkin it could turn out to be a good combination, right?
I might take down some decorations today, but I really hate to. Everything looked so nice this year, and the tree has been the best ever...so fresh that not needle one has dropped from it yet (and it didn't fall over once, either).
lol! I just looked at my tree a few minutes ago and it looks like its leaning---i realized it's the "sled" tree stand and not actually the tree. Then I realized that last year we had to put a weight on one part of the sled.
No decorations are coming down here until next weekend, and the candlesticks will stay in the windows at least until February or later. Last year I didn't take them in until at least Mid February and no one else did either.
Like someone else said, they look so pretty with the snow.
miguel's mom sounds yummy. I like to hear of other culture foods to try here.
elston then tell DP he better be calling for take out so you can build up your strength to type to us on here then!
skbs some how I just knew you were going to post today feeling bad~~ yes do get as much rest as you can. That is nice DH is bringing the food to you. I am still looking at the menu you posted.
YLisa one room down that has to feel good.
cyn keep posting your days that will strengthen your steps and maybe entice other smokers to quit!
NMS I have never heard of opening the front and back doors tradition before thanks for sharing that!
Couldn't change the kid's minds about having our traditional New England boiled dinner so it will be spaghetti and slaw here. They aren't eating any cabbage to show me it is all superstition but I am not taking the chance to find out I am getting too old for that. LOL Some days it would be good to go back to when they were little had no opinions and ate anything that was put on their plates.
Location: Finally made it to Florida and lovin' every minute!

We had fun last light in downtown Austin - First Night is an arts festival with all kinds of events, parades and displays, beautiful creations of costumes, burning of clocks, fireworks and GOOD FOOD! I had a middle-eastern lamb wrap, soooo yummy!

Do you have stuffing mix and applesauce? If so, make the stuffing using applesauce as a moisturizer. Cut a pockt in the chops, stuff well, season, pan brown and bake 325 for 1 hr.

a Tom and Jerry is a wonderful hot adult beverage that is typically made at Christmastime. You beat the daylights out of egg yolks and egg whites separately then blend them together and beat them some more. Meanwhile, you mix together 3 or 4 different types of liquor. Put a shot of the liquor mix in a coffee mug, top it w/some of the egg batter, then fill the mug up w/water that's just about boiling. Top w/nutmeg. Oh, baby, oh baby! Havent had any in several years. 35 min. to party time and I don't even know what I'm wearing yet.
