@Shelby – whenever you post a few days’ worth of meals, I become suddenly dissatisfied with what I’ve got available 😁! I now want meatballs and pizza and RIBS 😍 and, always broccoli salad (which I made last week).
@Duvel – thank you so much for posting the Christmas market pictures! I truly cannot get enough of them. Not to mention that gorgeous sauerbraten!
@C. sapidus – was the salmon cake bought at a grocery store or a fish shop? I’ve never seen a store made one, but I’d definitely try it if I saw it!
@FrogPrincesse – I’ve put those salmon pinwheels on my TJ shopping list!
I confess that I’m more like @liamsaunt’s brother and @MaryIsobel’s husband when it comes to vegetables. I like a LOT more than they seem to, but there are so many that I find repugnant – all squash, bell peppers, chard, mushrooms, zucchini, eggplant, etc., etc. Oddly, though, I’ve always liked the ones that most children don’t – broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, and Brussel sprouts. And I like some raw that I don’t care for cooked – carrots and cabbage, for instance.
Jessica made a couple of the last few dinners that we’ve had at home. One night we started with a gorgeous salad (she really excels at salads and dressings):
Chicken Kiev (frozen), Rice-A-Roni, glazed carrots (no idea why they are so dark), and street corn:
Last night she made chicken enchiladas. With Spanish rice and fiesta potatoes:
SO good! Both meals were a mixture of leftovers and freezer food, so she’s definitely meeting the December brief!
I did it again:
My plate:
Pepperoni pizza and some sausage gravy on a Hawaiian roll. Jessica’s was more interesting:
She had some leftover potatoes that she put a cream sauce she’d made on and she used the French toast, some ham, Swiss cheese, and cranberry sauce to make a sort of Monte Cristo.
