We ate spaghetti for 2 days, I boiled a pack of it and ate it for 2 days, with different toppings, meatballs made from Jimmy Dean sausage for Monday, then some hot links for Tuesday, I coated the pasta with cheese sauce and lots of sauteed spinach + tomato.. too bad, can't show you the pictures

Tina won't eat it. I love liver.

NormM wrote:Charlie rarely asks for something for dinner but tonight he asked for  steak and bok choy.  I added twice baked potatoes and corn on the cob.

NormM wrote:Michelle, I love chicken pot pies too but rarely eat them because i am afraid they are too many calories to have very often.  The one thing I wish they'd do is add some dark meat, or even offer some with all dark meat. I don't see the advantage of saying all white meat in big letters on the box.

Nothing smells better to me than liver and onions. But that's where it ends for me. Every time I've ever had it, it tasted gritty. Everyone said it's because it wasn't cooked right but you would think of the dozen or so times I've tasted it, SOMEONE would've cooked it properly!

I'm not adverse to liver per se, as I love all types of paté, and I will eat small doses of chicken liver, such as that used in rumaki.  But a plate of calve's liver is just not for me. My father ADORED it. My mom never made it and though my father cooked, he never made it for himself either. But he did order it for lunch if he stopped at a place that had it on their menu or for a lunch special.

It tickles me that Tina doesn't like liver but she will eat pig's feet!  Does she make liver and onions for you Jimmy, or do you make it yourself? I find it very hard to make something I don't like so she's a doll if she cooks it for you.  I wouldn't even like fiddling with a big piece of liver either.

The rest of it 3/4's went to the neighbor!

Dane has the car in Ohio and is continuing to work to get the house ready to sell.  He's such a trooper!  I was more than happy to be the one to return to our little courtyard villa in Florida to check on the plants and drive around the city in my golf cart ~ a hard job but one of us had to do it!  LOL

I didn't even cook tonight.  I did go to the grocery store and picked up a nice rib eye steak but when it got to be time to start the grill, I was just too tired.  I'd say it's 'jet lag' but I came from the exact same time zone!  I'm just tired from all the excitement of surviving Dane's accident, buying a car and traveling.  

Maybe tomorrow I'll decide to cook something ~ but, then again, I may use the same excuse to go pick something up.....

Oh, Great. You owe it to yourself to reward ( YOU ) and to realign all that bad stuff ( and thankfully is behind you now ). Somewhat, anyway. Thank God, Dane is mending, and maybe now, you can sit and realize, that maybe this will make you appreciate you are still able to rant but harmonize together.

Had coconut custard pie, and Tina had her own bone, but spit it out.
All that dental work, and the grinding and tooth making, and OHhhh Ohhhh! It all fell out of her mouth! I told her stay Away from screw in the gum / jaw. Learn to GUM your food.
Now 2700.00 for one tooth, will be another 2700.00 for the tooth that was supposed to be a sidekick to attach the original tooth to.

Like Dane.... she is eating soft stuff; like jello and ice cream and soup.
Her next appt. is wednesday, but she will be on the phone tomorrow screaming.

Jimmy, did Tina have an implant? I am an expert on implants. All of my dentists, periodontists have told me that you can't get an implant in one day, contrary to what the ads say. It takes at least 6 months to a year for the bone to grow around the post otherwise the implant is loose and can come out. Is that what happened to Tina?

We had a chimney sweep come in and clean our chimney for the new owner. Bad news. We have to have the chimney lined because there are some gaps between the bricks. Fire hazard. Cha-ching, cha-ching.
Poor Joe. He has been having some bad shoulder pain. I finally convinced him to go to Urgent Care and get checked out. They sent him to the hospital for some x-rays. We found out too late that the hospital is out of our network. I wish the hospital had told us. Now we might get stuck with the whole bill. Anyway, Joe has some vertebrae in his neck that are collapsing pinching the nerves. Got to see the primary and then an orthopod. They will try injections into the disk first to see if it works on the inflammation. It worked on his lower back.
Those mystery bugs are out in full force eating me alive. Got bites all over me and one in my belly button. I am glad to be moving away from them. I can't even sit outside on cement without getting bit.
I actually cooked for the first time in a few weeks: carne asada tacos with pico de gallo.

She makes it for me though! The sight of blood and dripping blood, is a no no.
