That looks sooooo delicious!

Last night already, that seemed to go quickly. That's great that he loves to come visit. I forgot, where does he live?

I just finished the Goan pork curry that I made yesterday. Prepped the moose roulades, but didn't feel like cooking them, so they are for tomorrow.

Do you have another grandson? I remember your granddaughter Tori (?), and she has a brother, is he Jake?

I had Beef Bulgogi, brown rice, broccoli ( this time I cooked in skillet with olive oil ( usually I cooked in microwave for 3 minutes ), salt pepper and lots of garlic oil, I closed the lid to make them real tender ) and corn fritters ( i used Ina Garten recipe for Lobster fritters )

Yes, our oldest daughter, Andrea, near Indianapolis, IN., is mother to Tori (our youngest and also our only granddaughter) and Joshua (our oldest grandchild).

Andrea came to visit last month and surprised us by bringing Josh along as a surprise. He will be a senior at Perdue University in Indiana this year, majoring in computer engineering and Japanese (neither of which I have any clue about). For some reason I have a feeling he's going to be a 'professional student' because he really seems to enjoy learning and doesn't mind the study time it takes.

It will be scrambled eggs and bacon per Tina's request. She is an hour away
watching her uncle; while his care giver runs errands for her family.

Exciting lunch and dinner for me today. I don't know if I mentioned before but my youngest son invested some money in a local craft brewery. They are working on opening a brew pub, hopefully in a few months. There is a pizzeria next door to their location. So, Danny called.............. "Mom, how about I pick you up, we'll get a pizza from the restaurant and you can see what we're doing for the pub". So, I sat in a construction site, watched what they are doing and had pizza and two of their beers. Fun!
Then of course, I was not hungry for supper, didn't feel like making anything either, and had a bagel with peanut butter. Great afternoon! LOL

I heard of a small craft brewery that wanted to get investors ~ said if anyone invested $10k or more they could get free beer for life......

And they got enough to get the brewery started and it's going strong to this day.

LOL

************

We took Jake to the airport yesterday and got disorientated on the way home ~ took about an hour longer than it should have.

I HATE construction on the highway!

By the time we got home it was between lunch and supper and I was HUNGRY.

I ended up making some creamed asparagus on toast ~ a childhood 'comfort' food.

Dane fended for himself.

Tonight Jim wants to take us out because Dane is taking him to the airport for a visit with his children next week. Not sure where we'll go ~ it's his call.

But it's a rainy day I don't have to cook (again).

From Lore:

"Dinner Tonight. Moose Roulade, roasted baby potatoes and red cabbage. Delicious, but I should have left it for next week when I hopefully don’t have a cast any more. I’m tired."

I've never had moose. Is it a 'gamey' tasting meat? Similar or stronger than deer?

Similar to deer.  But really more like beef.  I like the gamey flavour.  I grew up eating whatever my dad was able to get, occasionally hunting, even pheasant. I love dark meat, don't understand why chicken breast is so popular.

This business of cooking a real meal when dealing with a cast is not really for someone who is 77 years old now.  I'm tired now.  Hopefully Monday's visit with the doc lets me get rid of the cast.  I have no problem walking without it, but don't want to take any chances.  I know I'm whining.  It could have been much worse.

DD came home from work, and boiled ravioli.
She also cooked steamed mussels, and with a sauce Tina made the other day; we had a great meal.
Pineapple cake for dessert.

I was watching pati’s Mexican table this morning and she made a mango cake. Since I canned some mangos a while back I thought I’d make it. Her recipe,didn’t have a glaze but I decided to put on a glaze using mango juice and lime. Not bad

Happy 4th of July !!!


In honor of the tradition of 'picnic' foods, I just finished making a bowl (way too much, I'm sure) of Potato Salad. We'll be grilling (or broiling) 3 hot dogs and then spooning on some of Jimmy's Greek Sauce and a good scattering of chopped onions. It all depends on whether or not it's going to downpour when it's supper time.

So far today we've had 3 downpours ~ then the sun came out and built up the humidity......

Now it's overcast again, probably another bunch of rain clouds blowing in.

I just finished my delivery meal. Half a Peking Duck, stirfried vegetables, steamed rice. Enough for tomorrow, also! And, through the pandemic's lockdowns here, our restaurants are also now licensed to deliver alcohol, so I got a bottle of white wine!

I dont know why I didn’t take a photo but today we made grilled flank steak with broccoli salad and I made stuff for dessert, but was too full to eat it.

Off to see fireworks. I hope everyone had a great 4th
