Saturday 03/28: Tonight the microwave was my sous chef... I licked-up the last l'il bit of shrimp/linguine pesto from Thursday, and warmed a few remaining bites of my ribeye & whiskeyed-'shrooms from last night that I couldn't squeeze into my belly... It hit the spot!
Sunday 03/29: We've got a late-season blizzard heading our way so before I drove in to my graveyard shift tonight I got some navy beans soaking. I then pulled four "scrap" ziplocks from the freezer to thaw that contain a pair of smoked turkey wings, a couple of pork ribs, a pair of duck legs, and some andoullie sausage... so I'll be getting out the bean pot to slow cook a comforting cassoulet for my weekend off... I'm planning to hole-up and be lazy!
It was a lot of fun but unfortunately they didn't listen when I said I can't have wheat. I steered clear of all the pita, tabouli, and rice with vermacelli but then When my dinner came I ordered the lamb kabob with no rice or kofta and extra vegetables. It wasn't until I had eaten one that I realized they had put the kofta on my plate. It didn't look any different than the lamb chunks. I was sick all day yesterday.
Subway $5 footlong half for lunch other half for dinner.
Jon had chicken scampi for dinner.
I made caponata for myself tomorrow and have a roast in the crockpot.
Hi everyone, it was my day off today we went to China Buffet it was so Good. The weather hasn't been to bad here in Chicago a little chilly still, you have to wear a coat that's for sure. Went to the mall today and they have all the spring stuff out. I can't wait until it feels more like Spring! Cookie

Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs.
Tonight will be roast chicken with purple sprouting broccoli, followed by gently stewed rhubarb with greek yoghurt. The rest of the family can have a crumble with vanilla ice cream. Yes I am trying to be healthy and loose a few pounds!!!...![]()
Mm, that is one of my favorite Easter Eggs!
This Morning I made Home-made Jambalaya (posted recipe here S.P.) I didn't have Red & Green sweet peppers, so I used a pkg. of frozen Oriental Vegetables instead, it had my Red Peppers in it. I cooked the chicken in chicken broth first then added my frozen medium shrimp, and spices it was a really Good flavor. Cookie![]()

For budget and health/weight reasons I'm turning-over a new leaf and making more significant effort to eat meatless at least 2-3 times per week- starting NOW!
Monday night I had a haphazardly thrown together meal of orzo w/ broccoli/tomato and olive oil... along w/ a huge bowl of green beans w/ toasted walnuts. (Thurs. will be meatless again- maybe mashed sweet 'taters, steamed broccoli w/ dried apricots and pecans.)
Tuesday I had a class, so I quick-made a turkey/provolone sub on a pumpernickel roll w/ lite Helmann's and pesto and a couple tangerines.
Weds. I'm doing the Weds. Night half-bbq chicken special at the Elk's Lodge w/ my folks...
