Liuzhou, what a feast. I would have loved your New Year's Eve dinner. We had our traditional New Year's Eve dinner - Lobster and Champagne. Moe and I shared four 1 1/2 pound lobsters. We learned a long time ago, that all you need is lobster no sides.

Made an eggplant and zucchini lasagna before leaving for work this morning.

Last night's dinner. Roasted Pork Tenderloin with a mushroom gravy served with polenta and cauliflower, zucchini and tomatoes.

Thanks Scubadoo. I feel like we have been eating all day. Oh wait - We have been. I roasted a duck for Christmas Dinner. Served with an orange sauce, red cabbage, green beans and spaetzle. And Sticky Toffee Pudding for dessert.

Christmas Eve Tradition Tourtiere Pastry was an all butter quick style Puff Pastry. Moe likes his served with a chutney or tomato chile sauce but I have to have gravy on mine.

This weeks dinners. Late lunch so just a caprese salad with prosciutto for dinner. Spaghetti with clams. And last night Filet with a green peppercorn sauce.

Moe's breakfast one day this week.

I've never heard them called "Flat Chips" before. I like that. My mom only cut homemade fries round.

Tonight's dinner. Everything was cooked on the grill. A small rib eye roast just big enough for two thick slices and all the sides - red and yellow peppers, green beans, potatoes and mushrooms.

Moe's Breakfast. Local eggs steamed "semi-hard" served on toasted homemade bread.

His and Her's Eggs Benedict. Moe's and mine. I prefer my yolks "set".

MetsFan, I'm a purist when it comes to ham. As you mentioned there are so many ways to use up leftover ham. Which is why I never rub with mustard or brown sugar, or pineapple, cloves or any other glaze. I don't want sweet ham, especially if I'm going to make sandwiches, or fried ham and eggs, ham omelettes or crepes with ham. Or use the ham bone for a pot of beans or soup. I buy a good quality smoked ham, bone in, and just put it in a roasting pan, cover tightly with foil and roast in a slow over, between 275°And 300°F for about 12 to 15 minutes a pound.

Thanks Captain. Thanks Rotuts. Last night's dinner Ham dinner.

Norm Just the way I like my stews. Brothy. Looks delicious.

JoNorvelleWalker, Oh no. That is awful. I hope that they can easy the pain. Not much worse than an oil burn.

Tonight's dinner. Grilled Rack of Lamb with a fresh mint sauce.

Chris, Moe had soup for breakfast too. Put a big pot of Borscht (with beef) on to simmer last night. Not in time for dinner. So Moe had a bowl for breakfast, garnished with dill and sour cream with a side of homemade rye toast.

Anna, the recipe is on my blog. Here is the link. Salisbury Steak Recipe

I still had a steak that I had presalted earlier in the week so I made Moe steak and eggs again. Grilled NY Strip topped with poached eggs.

Liuzhou, That salmon looks perfect, BUT, it is the chicken livers that has my mouth watering. And it is only 5:30 AM here on the west coast.

Something I hadn't made in a while. Salisbury steak with mushroom gravy.

Moe's Breakfast. Steak and Eggs With sauted mushrooms and fried potato wedges.

Love simple and quick dinners. Especially on a work night. Chicken Piccata This dinner took just 45 minutes from the time the water went on to boil for the pasta and it was being plated.

Halibut season is coming to an end here so I had to have fresh halibut one more time.

Leftover Pork Chile Verde for breakfast. With butter basted eggs and homemade flour tortillas.
