Moe's breakfast. Had intended to make this last night and then changed directions. Chicken and Green beans in black bean sauce. I'm taking the same thing for lunch.

Moe's breakfast. Soft boiled eggs (actually steamed) with toast for dipping.

I agree. Please go see a doctor. Basket of Bagels. Some poppy seed and some caramelized onions and cheddar.

First pizza of the new year. Dough was made yesterday and in the fridge for 24 hours. Italian sausage with mushrooms baked in the Ooni.

WOW!!!! @Kim Shook that is one of the best posts ever. I hope you are feeling better. I can't believe what you turned out while dealing with COVID. Amazing. Moe's dinner tonight. Seared scallops in a green peppercorn sauce. With homemade baguette for dipping in the wonderful buttery cream sauce with garlic and fresh thyme. Served with a lovely oak aged Chardonnay from the Maverick Estate Winery from the Okanagan(BC).

Moe's breakfast. Butter basted eggs with side pork. Toasted baguette.

Moe and I shared a platter of dungeness crab tonight and dessert was also shared. Baked my favourite brownies before leaving for work and made a caramel sauce when I got home We shared a Brownie Banana caramel sundae. The banana component was all Moe's. I don't care for bananas.

Skipped lunch today so had an early dinner. I had a couple of lamb shanks and decided to make a lamb curry with potatoes. Served with basmati rice and homemade Chapati.

You already do @PatrickT.

Nice snack. Just wondering though who is it that forbids you to cook? Last night's bake. Started a sourdough biga on Sunday and divided it between two 500g batches of dough yesterday morning. One sweetened with a little sugar with chocolate and cranberries and the other a cheddar cheese batch. Left out on the counter all day and baked six cheddar cheese baguettes and six chocolate cranberry mini boules last night. Sliced one of the boules for something sweet with our early cappuccinos. And then a little later sliced one of the baguettes for toast. Makes the best toast.

First Halibut Fish and Chips of 2023. Hadn't anything planned for dinner. Made the offer of fish and chips and Moe never turns down halibut fish and chips.

Moe's breakfast. Leftover steak, sliced thin on toasted sourdough Kalamata bread.

I worked today, but had a NY Strip steak presalted and had intended to grill Moe the steak for dinner with grilled garlic bread, mushrooms and homemade fries. But he was hoping for mashed potatoes, so I switched lanes and made one of our favourites - Green Peppercorn steak. Served with another bottle of the Maverick Bush Vine Syrah. Was perfect with the peppercorn steak.

The sourdough Kalamata bread has been a big hit with both Moe and Matt. Moe wanted some toasted for breakfast.

@shain, I love your post. So many wonderful dishes. I would be happy with everyone of them. @Dejah, I bet you are enjoying cooking for your son. I would love your black bean garlic ribs. Friday night's dinner. Cacio e Pepe A quick and easy work night dinner. And last night a stirfry - chicken with baby bok choy and oyster mushrooms.

Today's bake. 500g Kalamata Sourdough - netted two baguettes and two small boules. Dough was made on Thursday and bake this morning.

@Tropicalsenior, what temperature do you bake at? I bake all my breads on the stone at 500°F. And I would call my crusts "crusty" but not tough. You might leave the baguettes in a little bit longer to get a richer colour. You nailed the crumb. You even have shine.

@Tropicalsenior, your photos are not opening for me.

Today's bake. Sourdough Kalamata Olive Boules. Made a biga with discard before leaving for work. Divided into two batches , one at 500g and one at 600g batch. The 500g went into the fridge and will be baked tomorrow and the 600g was left out on the counter overnight and two boules baked this morning. Edited to add crumb shot. I should have waited until the loaf at fully cooled rather than slicing while warm. But I wanted a photo before leaving for work, because I'm pretty sure that the sliced loaf will be long gone before I get home and the other loaf just went out the door. Matt is taking it to a friend.

Everything Greek tonight. Grilled baby back ribs, lemon potatoes and the salad. These are my favourite ribs.

Baked this morning. Cinnamon buns with both a cream cheese glaze and caramel sauce. Moe had one for lunch.

@Dejah, what a beautiful celebration dinner. Happy Birthday to your husband. Your tenderloin looks amazing.

This really appeals to me. I never think to cook cabbage unless it is cabbage rolls. Happy Anniversary @Shelby.

This was intended to be New Year's Day dinner but was postponed until today. Chateaubriand for two. Grilled beef tenderloin with homemade Bearnaise sauce. Roasted potatoes, cauliflower, zucchini, squash and a bottle of Merlot from the Maverick Estate Winery.

Looks like everyone is off to a wonderful start for the New Year. Didn't do anything I had planned for breakfast or dinner yesterday. One of our cats was sick and had to take him down to Victoria to an Emergency Vets. They called last night to say that the blockage had moved and it looked like he wasn't going to need surgery. I'm working today but going to drive down and pick Huey up early so hoping the news is still good this morning. Bill is already up to $2700. Hoping it won't be much more. So today's breakfast was simple. Moe loves the raisin bread so he requested just some toasted with Brie.
