I made turkey corn chowder with leftovers. I shook in a little liquid smoke instead of bacon and a bit of cayenne because I didn't have any jalapenos or chipotle, then blenderized some for mom. Success!

Season and bake frozen fish filets on foil. No need to defrost , no mess to clean. I call it Foil Fish.

The tilapia I buy are individually wrapped. I submerge the pieces in their bags in water, then dredge in Louisiana fish fry before frying. I think it was just mishandled before I got it.
Tonight we did pizza ! Selfish!

Sharadale, I've got some talapia in the freezer I plan to have in fish tacos later this week. How did you thaw your fish? Too bad it tasted "fishy". :(

Tonight. I made up for last night and made steak, corn on the cob and potato salad. I redeemed myself!

Last night I made fried Tilapia, rice and asparagus. The intention was to make a quick good meal, but it didn't turn out well! The tilapia was frozen and I thawed it first and prepared it the same way I always do except I used canola oil instead of olive oil. The fish tasted so fishy that I wouldn't let anyone eat it. I also felt like the asparagus wasn't good either. Perhaps it was too old I steamed it but it was not the little asparagus I have been getting, but a bit thicker and larger. So we had cereal, lol.

Last night was a hamburger hotdish with egg noddles, fresh English peas with pepper, lemon zest, and bacon, and fresh peach cake.

Tonight was stuffed peppers made in the crock pot, Mexican-seasoned pinto beans, and cheese biscuits.

Each of these meals was shared with my friend whose husband has cancer. Her daughter came and picked theirs up, which worked well.

My friend and her daughter painted a small porch this weekend. Their house is on the historic register and the exterior has to be authentic and approved and they had a heck of a time getting the paint color right this time. The husband LOVES that house and I think all their effort at maintaining it does him good.

So my cooking while the women ran around getting the paint color right contributed to the husband's happiness. Make sense? :)

Spinach salad with cranberries, hard boiled eggs, mozzarella cheese, tomatoes,
and dressing for lunch, a costco pumpkin pie piece, that is it for Sunday brunch.

oh YUM!! Soup is about the ONLY thing I like about this time of year.

We should have one topic area strictly for pictures. They can delete them in a few days if they feel it takes up to much of their website...

My stomach is growling, anything with bacon on top and cheese mixed in has to be good.
So far all I've found is a banana...(sigh)

Soup's on! I wish we could post pictures. I am the proud creator of a huge pot of creamy, cheesy cauliflower soup topped with a floating island of deliciousness (bacon bits - real ones - and chives). It's awesome!!

Probably a good thing that I'm adding some creamy ingredients to that soup - I just tasted the broth and the top of my head just about blew off. LOL

I picked up a MONDO-HUGE cauliflower a few days ago - a local farmer sells his produce from the back of his truck in the parking lot of the local 7-11 store (we live in a small town). Whatever he has leftover a the end of the day, he puts inside the store. I walked in and found this cauliflower bigger than my own head for $3 - MINE!

I'm making soup tonight. A peppery, meaty, cheesy, creamy cauliflower soup. Not sure what all's going in it at this point, I'm playing it by ear right now. So far, chicken and beef broth (only because I only had 1/2 a container of each left), water, pepper flakes, dehydrated celery (my own, made just a few days ago), onions, garlic, some Himalayan pink salt, some sliced zucchini and a ton of cauliflower. I have some shredded rotisserie chicken I could put in there, but not sure yet. Maybe ham instead. But for sure there will be some heavy cream, cream cheese and shredded cheddar tossed in at the end, after the cauliflower is mashed up.

ohJude, you are in a pickle!!! Does your Mom like shakes....ok ok...I know folks may be saying "oh no, enough with the ensure shakes already"...but truly if she would at least drink one a day...and you can blend it with things like peanut butter, applesauce, extra vanilla, maraschino cherries, fresh fruits, etc...make them fun and flavorful..I even put sweet potato and spices in one for Mama around this time of year and I swear it tastes like a pumpkin pie...you can tweek them, and of course watch what you add based on any health issues or allergies...but yes, I am plugging my shakes again..sorry folks...I think I have lost my mind..Maybe I could write a recipe book for these things....Sadly Mama has to live on ensure now and so I have had to find a lot of creative things to do to bump up the calories and make them tasty at the same time...sometimes they can be a little on the thick side...so I add a lot of ice cubes and that gets some extra fluid in them :) ok, enough of my shakes...but just throwing that out there.... :)

Well Im looking for ideas for any meal right now. Currently Mum doesn't like eggs fish cheese or meat and she can't stand veg and she doesn't like milk, won't eat a salad and the bread isn't like it used to be oh and she has gone off soup. Hmmmmm now this is going to be tricky unless of course I give her just dessert at which point she will eat it all. So what does she want to eat I hear you ask. Well when I ask her if any of the above is OK, she says oh yes. When I place it in front of her it is a different matter. And have I cooked anything she likes in the last week? Dear god not one thing. Is your toast and marmalade ok? I don't like the toast its brown (funny that!!!) Where did you get this marmalade? Its not like the one we used to have (well actually its exactly the same and I know this because it the 4th in a batch of 5 I made) She wanted a cheese and pickle sandwich but didn't like the pickle (you might call it chutney) or the cheese or the bread!

Time to have a moment to me I think oh wait I am doing its 6:00 am here so I am going to have yet another long long day

Too bad you don't have Jeanne G for a neighbor, she would cook it for you. It is easy to tell she is a good cook.
