I've done both ...I like both ways.... I tend to choose the convection at 25 degrees less, though. Dunno why lol.

Got the new bean box today 😁.

Mushroom and ricotta stuffed ravioli with spicy Italian sausage Crab legs, baked taters and salad Asian beef sticky ribs with sweet and sour tofu over rice and eggrolls

Where is the WOW button!!! This looks amazing!

WANT

Ohhhh those mums and the mushrooms and the oysters....I could live in there.

I am a news junkie and hadn't heard a word about this. I'm so sorry people have to go through this. I'm glad you have some food stocked up. You are in my thoughts and prayers and I will be following along intently.

Fried up some wings as a side dish for mac and cheese Found some cheap, but decent steaks at the big city grocery store yesterday......still dreaming about the steaks at Whole Foods. Man, those looked good. But, these were good too. Just a lot less money, and thinner, and less fat.....LOL Along with the first Silver Queen from my second planting of corn. Not sure how smart the second planting was since it's supposed to freeze tomorrow night, but at least I got one ear......

We scanned our Prime membership into the thingy, but we didn't gain anything by it. Do you get a weekly alert of what you can get on sale for being a Prime member?

Can you imagine the meat counter?

I think the big city is getting a T. Joe's soon. I definitely will be stopping in there. I thought I was going to have to send poor Ronnie out to the car at WF. I caught him hyperventaliving over the price of lemons.

I had a much dreaded appointment today to begin to address some dental issues. So, we left early to get some errands run. There is a Whole Foods close to where my appointment was so I talked Ronnie into stopping in. I had never been in one. Wow. Their seafood and meat dept. is amazing. Many different kinds of fresh oysters, gorgeous looking prime steaks. Their cheese section is awesome. But, I now know why it's called Whole Paycheck. 😳 We left and did the bulk of our shopping in Dillons. I'm saving the one Whole Foods paper bag that I got, though, to set out to impress guests

Amazing. Thanks again so much! You've taken me on a vacation---a much needed one

Ditto @ninagluck I'd love your recipe too--you are an amazing cook I'm gearing up to make your eggnog soon.

It is early, but it would be super smart of me to get some doughs mixed up and in the freezer. So much easier that way.

I just tested mine. Yes, there is slight up and down give.

I'm ready for winter. Not the holidays, but winter. Supposed to freeze on Thursday night, so Wednesday and Thurs. we will be doing a last pick of the garden. Maybe some fried green tomatoes in my future Anyway, it's been so nice--windows open. Lows in the 40's. Venison chili had to be made yesterday.

I agree, it's probably the gasket. I bet it has "stretched" and possibly sags down a bit making it harder to close the lid.

Oh man I'm so sorry to hear this. She's still teaching, though. I had to google to find out more about Alcor. Very interesting. You are missed, Lisa!

Made a couple of Ronnie's favorites .....dove casserole. SO bad, but so good. Fry the doves, make a gravy, bake for about 45 minutes. I served over egg noodles, but rice or potatoes would be good too. Last night was pheasant piccata

I'm beaming with pride I've peeled those before and canned them one summer when tomatoes weren't producing.....takes a lot of patience lol. I, too, am interested in how you pickle your beets. I love those things, but every recipe I run across and try has way too much clove taste for me. I guess I should try just leaving out the spices and do just vinegar and a bit of sugar.....

Yes, Happy Birthday @heidih!!! We are both Libras

That was Ronnie's---he smashed it down right after the picture. Looked like a truck ran over it.

I ran across a recipe that looked interesting so last time I was at the store I grabbed a head of cauliflower---the recipe is a curry cauliflower and egg salad. You roast the cauliflower and some onion with a drizzle of olive oil, salt and curry for about 20 minutes. Then mix in mayo, chopped hard boiled egg, capers and black pepper. Sprinkled with parsley for some color. I liked this. Kind of like a potato salad .....the roasted cauliflower with curry is interesting. Ronnie liked it too, which surprised me a bit. He's not a huge curry fan. Anyway, venison burgers on the grill with the usual sides to go with. It was a wonderfully chilly night...should have had soup, but the tomatoes were calling.

Always wondered what this meant on my records........
