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!

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.

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.

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.

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!!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I'm pinned down by rain today near Lyndon, Kansas; and weather permitting will be leaving tomorrow, so the market may have to wait. But what and where is it? I'm hoping to come back through here again!
(It's very loud right now, but I bet it's even louder in Wichita, to my south!)
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.

Yes we are all hoping beyond hope for someone to take over the company and for the original company to provide their recipe because they are truly different than any other taco shells on the market.

A friend dropped off a bag of fresh herbs for me yesterday morning so supper was a salad of arugula, herbs, tomatoes, blue cheese and some crumbled crisps that I got on sale at Costco.

Glad you are waiting out the storm. It was wild last night but the worst is due to hit here later today in the KC area. Just stay put--so many tornadoes this last weekend and they are now predicting more tonight.

Thnks !
thinking a bit more about the size of the
these might be green cherry sized tomats?
I like them small, but you can cut them in half/quarters if they are larger. Here is the recipe and I am pretty sure it came from an eGulleter way back when.
TomolivesIf tomatoes are larger, cut in half or quarters. If small, make a couple of holes or slits in them so the brine gets inside. Pack the tomatoes snugly into a jar. Add 4 cloves garlic and a tsp of pickling spice. Bring ¼ c. salt, a pint of Heinz white pickling vinegar, and a pint of water to a boil. Pour over tomatoes, let cool, and store in the fridge. The Temple Bar in Manhattan served an "old South martini," garnished with tomolives. They're also great in bloody marys.Best used within a couple of weeks.-

As hot as it is here, I just ate some Progresso soup--Southwestern Bean. I got home late and didn't want to take time for anything else since basketball is starting.

I make my own tomolives when I can get green tomatoes. I had no idea you could buy them!!
@rotuts when I get to my PC where my files are, I'll send you the recipe for them.
