  1. I don't want another cookbook. Can I just come taste-test what you make??? Your pix in the other thread are to die for!!

    Dinner 2025

    I spent most of my supper time throwing together a pasta salad to take to the new house because I've had a bad habit of going there to work and not eating all day. I'm running on empty. So, taking the salad over to have something to rely on when I'm there. (No pix) So, I had cooked some RG mayocobas day before. Supper was some rice topped with mayocobas and a little cheese with some Campari (Costco) tomatoes.

    You all are killing me with these pizzas!! I might need take-out tonight.

    Dinner 2025

    I defrosted some turkey soup the other day and hadn't felt like eating soup since. I kept wishing it was chicken and noodles like Mom used to make. Sadly, I didn't have any noodles. So, I give you turkey and orrechiette.
  5. Last night was a classic example. I could not think of anything I really wanted to eat. I pulled out a gently-expired package of pre-cooked Jasmine rice and had it buttered with tomato and citrusy garlic seasoning. Photo in the Dinner thread.

    Couldn't think of a single thing I really wanted to eat last night. Settled on buttered Jasmine rice with tomato and citrus y garlic seasoning.

    Last night's freezer-cleaning find was bacon cheese potato soup.

    Dinner 2025

    Trying to work my way through the freezer. Defrosted an unmarked container. Turned out to be black-eyed peas. Wouldn't be my first choice for a hot summer day, but it was tasty!
  9. @Smithy I was thinking cook a couple of slices of bacon, , waffle and an egg. Pile egg & bacon on top of waffle.
  10. I just realized I should take this to the new house to use until I get all my regular stuff moved. I'll have a couple of months of going back and forth and it would be good to be able to do quick grilled cheese or whatever instead of running out for fast food. Frozen waffles maybe.
  11. I said crackers and cheese above, but then realized that lately it has been a sandwich (whole wheat) with butter, cheese and lots of dill pickles.
  12. Yes, in the same boat. I generally have crackers and cheese when all else fails.

    I actually cooked! Italian sausage, a little diced potato, mushrooms, diced tomatoes, various herbs/spices. Baked a bit, then topped with spinach and cheese and browned.

    Dinner 2025

    It was fast food for me last night. Air-fried chicken breast strips and sauteed ginger garlic vegetables from a kit. Quick and easy and pretty tasty. After supper, my neighbor popped over with one of her daughter's pastry boxes. So, peach croissant for dessert. Yum!!
  15. Now I need to work in a trip to TJ to get the St. Michel cookies. Costco doesn't have the ones I love right now and those look pretty close. And I was happy to see the Fromage Pave mentioned in the video. I could eat that every day! But TJ doesn't always have it here.
  16. Sorry all went at once, but congrats on great new appliances! I have 2 old fridges. Neither works well anymore--both need new gaskets. I keep the doors on the freezers taped to try to hold them closed a bit tighter. Since I'm moving sometime in the near future, I don't want to replace them right now. I'd rather wait to see what I need in a new place.
  17. I honestly can't believe I got them--and like I need anymore, but most of my collection is already packed up and I've been having cookbook browsing withdrawals. I'm sure I'll be giving some of these away at some point because I'm pretty sure I've already got a couple of them. @Smithy, I can't wait to take a look at the Liberace one--I started laughing when I saw it! I wish it had the dust cover, but am sure contents will be fun anyway.
  18. Hooray!! There's no place like home!! I so admire you for doing all you did on your own. You are an amazing woman! I hope next time you'll be able to stop here!
  19. Today was my lucky day. I got all these cookbooks from a lovely local woman in the Buy Nothing group. And another friend gave me TONS of moving boxes in desirable expensive to buy sizes and big bags of packing materials. And another friend brought me 2 packages of fresh raviolis and a carton of ice cream. No pix of the food and boxes.

    Dinner 2025

    I had milk and cheeses to use up so made a very small baked mac and cheese with cheddar, blue cheese and some of the pepperoni and mozzarella crisps I got at Costco. Very tasty and my doctor would probably not be happy about it.
  21. Glad you made it safely through the metro congestion and road work, but so sorry we didn't get to visit. Next time!!! I'm looking at a new house today, so I may be out of Liberty next time, but not that far!! I'll keep you posted.
  22. I'm no expert, but in my mind, bread pudding has eggs and milk. Panade has no eggs and has broth as opposed to milk, though the one I love to make for holidays also has wine. Again, that's my own personal opinion.
  23. Well, Liberty, MO. I didn't realize Cosentino's had any stores that far into Kansas. My sister is in Topeka and they don't have them there. And I'm not sure of locations in Kansas, but I was thinking of HyVee. The store very near my house is huge and wonderful. As you near Kansas City metro, there are many Asian markets that you might enjoy browsing. Just not sure how your route is taking you--when the storms pass. Pretty sure they are supposed to be here through the day/evening.
  24. OMG!! Cosentino's Price Chopper is near me! Where are/were you??? If you're still around, I have another market for you to visit!!
