I can't make out what that pic is.

Lasagne tonight!

Spaghetti and a garden salad.

I got home around 5pm last night. My wife was at my older son's school baseball game a half hour away. She was also going to rush him back to his school where he had a concert last night. My daughter was at practice and my other son had a game at 6 that I was going to.

So I put carroys, potatoes and a pork roast in the crock pot, and put it on high for a late dinner as everyone would be coming home after 8.

After my son's game I dropped him off home (Incidentally, his team won, 1-0, and he pitched four scoreless, one-hit innings, and knocked the only run of the game in on a double off the center field fence in the bottom of the 6th), and went to see the end of the concert.

My older son was famished, so I suggested we go to our favorite sandwich shop where we had huge grinders. Stuffed, I walked into the house with him a little after 9, and saw the crock pot, having had completely forgotten that I made dinner. The rest of the family had eaten out, so we'll heat the pork roast tonight.

Good deal, Klyd. Pork roast is one of those dishes that gets better after a night in the refrigerator.

What kind of seasonings did you use? Congrats to your son on his game.

Thanks, Mig.

I used a commercial terriyaki marinade. Also, of course, it should be carrots, and not carroys. My bad.

I do love a nice pork roast.

We can roast Pork this summer.

You hafta remove the shorts first.

Who's shorts?

The don's, silly girl.

Strip steaks marinated for over a day, cooked them on low with the grill lid open and man were they awesome, wife and I finished our plates and we usually never do.

Tuna salad tortillas with spicy potato wedges!

Home-made onion soup. I got crocks a number of years ago, fully intending to make onion soup one day. I found them during my spring cleaning, and decided today was as good a day as any other. The house, however, STINKS of onions.

I'm sorry that sounds like a disease to me.

How do you make onion soup at home?

Brown the onions in some butter and olive oil over a low heat. Add beef broth, port wine and a dash of soy sauce. You let it simmer, you put it in a crock, you add a round toast on top, cover with cheese (you can use swiss, but I used muenster) and broil it until the cheese is bubbly. The toast is essential, otherwise the cheese just melts and falls into the soup.

I'm gonna make a nice big pot of pasta fagioli tonight. The weather is perfect for it.

Any time that you plan on eating beans, we appreciate the warning.

So do my neighbors.

I would think that anyone within the tri-state area would.

Today is my younger son's 13th birthday. We went out to our local pub for dinner with another family, very close friends of ours.

We had an assortment of hot and hot garlic wings. I had eggplant parmagian with a Greek salad.

Mushroom omelettes with sausages and chips!

I had dinner at my mother-in-law's yesterday for Mother's Day. My wife's brother, who has taken over the family restaurant and does catering, made a salad, penne in vodka sauce, eggplant parmagian, sausage with onions & peppers and filet mignon. Dessert was apple pie and a custard filled white cake.

Food

For Mother's Day we went to a terrific buffet. It was sort of eclectic, with sushi, a prime rib carvery, some seafood, and some Chinese. I ate salmon and California rolls, two helpings of steamed crab legs and two servings of prime rib. Then I finished it off with some fresh oranges, pudding and a fortune cookie. Oh, I also had some teeny clams in black bean sauce and some chicken wings. They pretty much had to roll me out of there.

Tonight I'm making a nice roast beef since it's FREEZING out!! I can't believe it's May.

Last night we had chicken tagliatelle in pesto!

Tonight is pizza

I am seemingly one of the few people on the planet that don't like pesto sauce.
