If anyone wants to judge, yesterday I made a glazed ham - the craving was so strong I couldn't even wait til today to get pineapple, so I used brown sugar, spicy mustard, red wine vinegar (what I had) & Worcestershire sauce. Delicious. That was dinner. Not even extra mustard for dipping. I've occasionally eaten so many samples I wasn't hungry for dinner, but last night was intentionally a huge plate of ham for dinner with a slightly less huge plate for dessert. O regrets.

Mr. Dddiva said when he & his siblings wanted to get each other in trouble they would yell "mom, so & so is eating ham without bread". With 8 kids she needed to fill them up on the less costly carbs. So funny. She got a big kick out of it when I called her laughing to confess. We're bringing her a nice chunk up, along with the yummy split pea soup from the bone and some nice crusty bread w/Irish butter.

Sorry for rambling, hope you savored every bite with no guilt & no regrets.

Not rambling at all -- I loved that story. No guilt or regrets here with the chocolate, just like you had none with the ham. I actually prefer savory, rather than sweet, so I can totally understand your craving.

Tonight was mustard & herb roasted chicken thighs and roasted asparagus with olive oil S&P.

but I wanted to show off the cake I made for a friend's birthday. I haven't tried photo posting before; hope this works!

Yes, I got a little carried away -- that's carrots, celery, asparagus, onions, zucchini, grape tomatoes, snow peas, and mushrooms! Started the chicken (boneless, skinless thighs) about halfway through the veggie time (40 minutes). Here's my plate ...



The chicken was VERY simple -- spritz with olive-oil spray, sprinkle thyme plus Tone's rosemary-garlic seasoning (one of my all-time favorite seasonings), cook on the stovetop for about 18-20 minutes, turning a few times. It is very easy and very delicious.

Wowza!

I actually have a little 'buzz' working because I don't do cocktails 'til 5 pm...

but, as the saying goes; it is 5 o'clock somewhere.

dinner will be Chicken Rice soup later on, because I am flying out of EWR/Newark to Puerto Rico this evening.

I won't be posting here for a week, I like to take a break from the interwebz when I go away.

I'm wondering if any of you will miss me?

you will probably miss me as much as you would miss a splinter stuck in your backside...haha.

Glad you enjoyed the Modelo Negra, mr. magoo! Hope you thoroughly enjoy your week long getaway, too!
