1. Hash

Well, that's my term for any dish I make where I use leftovers in a big skillet!

About 6 potatoes
1 pkg turkey sausage
1 onion
3 cloves garlic
3 celery stalks
4 kale leaves
Spices: allspice, red pepper, salt to taste

I sauté the potatoes first until they're semi-tender. I add my spices and then add the sausage, onions and garlic. Celery and kale go in last so they don't get too mushy.

2. Chicken Nuggets

With Mac N Cheese,Green Beans

3. Leftover baked chicken.

Sliced tomato.

4. Angel hair pasta w/ store bought Alfredo sauce. Humongous salad.

(Probably the best year this backyard gardener has had in a long time. Bell peppers, cukes, tomatoes, red onions, white onions, herbs. No lettuces - too hot - but they'll go in around the end of Sept.)

7. You are growing all of that??

Wow, I am impressed. I really miss gardening.....

and a real bathtub.

Otherwise, my life is pretty idyllic.

9. Yeah. Cukes are in the ground up against the house, others in big tubs set around.

Not the best growing set up, but it works for me. And a nice "job" - step out the front door in sweats and water everything.

I share your sense of a pretty idyllic lifestyle. Who knew? Didn't see it coming at all. But there it is.
(aside) I've got a tub. Essentially use it as a reading room a few days a week. Soak and read. Soak and read.

10. I had a jacuzzi tub in my house.

I used to light candles, put on some great music and pour a glass of wine.

Now I get to do that only a couple times a year when visiting friends, but I sure do appreciate it when it happens!

5. Pizza for the kids as Maddie has a sleepover

And T-man would never turn it down. I think I am just going to have crab cakes with hatch chile with sliced tomatoes, cukes, onions and some homemade herb dressing.

6. Some friends are coming over for cocktails.

I am thinking of making a tomato/cheese pie. I should make a salad, as my greens are losing it.

And maybe cut up some fruit and serve with yogurt.

Should be very casual.

8. Zuppe Toscana copycat

go ahead and diss me, but it's good, even if from the Olive Garden, and it makes kale very tasty. Spicy sausage, onion, garlic, potatoes, kale, chicken broth and heavy cream - rich but tasty.

11. Crock pot chicken and roots

Marinated boneless chicken in homemade italian dressing made from pomegranite (sp?) balsamic vinegar, then into the crock pot with onions, potatoes and carrots. Fresh loaf of bread.

12. Refrigerator and Pantry almost empty, so I grated up all the ends of cheese,

defrosted some bacon, used the last three eggs, cooked the package ends of linguine, spaghetti, and cappellini (easy, you just add to the boiling water at different times) and made a kick-ass carbonara.
