January 2023 — happy new year

I must call the grocery store near where my son lives, they sometimes have grouper. It's not available in my area, Michael and Amy live about 45 miles away and it might be a reason for me to get grouper, and visit them also. A local store did tell me some time ago that they could get it for me if I ordered a whole fish. I love grouper!

I surely don't want 100 pounds of grouper! LOL

"Dinner Tonight. Chicken breast tenders and lentil salad with cucumber, red pepper, parsley, green onions, and snap peas!"

It was tomato soup and griddled cheese sandwich.

For picture of my dinner last night, just check the post from the day before. Leftover chicken and lentils. there's a bit for lunch today too. I only cooked one cup of lentils, but they really puff up. Next time, half a cup only. I really don't like anything three days in a row. LOL

Charlie called his mom to ask about how she make bulbogi soup.  She makes ox (beef) bone soup.  It is a base for many Korean soups.  The recipe I have says to boil the bones for around six hour and to use the bones three times with fresh water each time.  It makes a lot but it boils down to maybe under a gallon.  I spent three days making it and today heated up a small pan of it with some noodles, green onion and bulgogi.  I also had a chuck roast in the slow cooker. I forgot to take pictures until it was almost gone.

"Dinner Tonight. Stir fry of unions, mushrooms, red pepper and pea pods, shrimp in cream sauce over egg noodles. I sent two pictures because everything looks so colorful before adding the cream!"
