1. I'm thinking fajitas and mexican rice since it's just going to be me and my son tonight

well my daughter will be there but she's not quite nine months so it's mushy stuff for her. My wife is bothered by some of the spices in mexican food so I don't usually make it when she's home.

2. I am using up some leftover chicken

Planning on shredded chicken in gravy, mashed potato's, peas and biscuits. There is a little leftover apple pie that I made the other night so finish it up also.

6. Oh, NEOhiodemocrat! I am a Buckeye native transplanted to Georgia. The foods

you describe take me right back home again. Your dinner sound so good and comforting to me.

Chicken and some shrimp, string beans and mushrooms.

5. When's dinner?

I'll bring the wine!

9. Ah you missed it. Wine would have been good. I went downtown after for glass or two and

some chocolate...

7. Split pea soup.

I had other plans, but ran some errands that took longer than usual--partly because I locked my keys in my car and had to wait for AAA to break into it. I made pea soup earlier this week and froze a few servings of it. So, I pulled one out of the freezer.

8. Now aren't you glad...

you froze some homemade goodies just for a day like this?

So much better than resorting to supermarket frozen goods or take out (in many cases).

I am in the process of making up vegetarian stock for soups. I plan on freezing them in plastic bags and taking them out when I want to make the soup. After work today, I bought voluminous amounts of leeks, parsnips, carrots, etc. I am using "Love Soup" vegetable broth recipes.



Tonight I made fried chicken and sweet potato crisps. White wine to go with. For dessert, dark chocolate with orange and nuts in it.

Sweep potato crisps are so easy and incredibly delish. I will be making them a lot more in the future.
