November, 2020 ~ What's cooking for your cool weather?

Lore's picture of her LASAGNA !!




(Looks good to me!)

Thanks again, Beth. I had half of the one in the square container and it was a lot. I will be eating lasagna for a long time, but it freezes well, so no problem. Decided to make it in smaller batches, so I can freeze it in the containers it was made in. Son and Daughter-i-law will get the loaf pan. The rest is for me.

Nothing was particularly inspiring at the grocery store this morning.....but brats were on sale. So, grilled brats, baked sweet potato & green beans with bacon & onion.

Leftover lasagna for us. I don't feel like cooking. I am not feeling well. I hope it isn't Covid.

Take it easy for a couple days and hopefully you'll be feeling good soon.

I've got a chicken breast out thawing.....haven't decided what to make yet.

I ended up making chicken parm and tossed a small salad. It went over well.

Leftovers for me tonight. I am sooooo bad at keeping track of those, but had a container of very nice roast pork that I found in my freezer. So, I put on some sauerkraut, stuck it in the oven, and just a few minutes ago put some baby potatoes in for baking with it. It smells great in here.

I think the older I get, the more German I seem to become............... I mean, pork, sauerkraut and potatoes? LOL

One more post here for me tonight. I just want to tell you, my American friends here I am not a praying person, But I wish you all the best at this very difficult time. My daughter-in-law is from South Dakota, so your election has been very important for me. I wish you all THE BEST. You know what they say about Canada living next to The US.......................... It's like sleeping with an elephant on the other side of the bed. Hopefully that elephant doesn't roll over us!

Thanks Lore. Yes this election will be interesting. The National Guard, military , police are on alert. Buildings boarded up, streets blocked off. If there is trouble, I wonder who is going to be in the middle of it.

Jimmy, your soup sounds great. I think we will have the same this week.

The first thing I saw in the freezer this morning was the bag 'o burgers......so that's what's for supper.

Burger King cooked tonight.
A double burger.... fries.... onion rings, and a garden salad saved for tomorrow.

Salmon & grouper out of the freezer to thaw for supper.

I picked Lyn up to go clothes shopping with me in Ocala. I hate shopping for clothes ~ but sometimes you just have to. I did end up finding 5 pairs of capris and a top. The colors this fall are about as dull as possible for old women with grey hair....and pale skin.....and overweight (well, the colors don't affect the weight but nothing seems to look good on fat women.....).

When I got home I ended up slicing my grouper filet in half ~ it was close to 10 oz. and way too much for me to eat. But I figured Dane might have it after he ate his 8 oz. salmon.....and he did. He was hungry, to be sure.

I've got one more grouper filet in the freezer and then it'll be time to make another run to the fish market in Homosassa or Crystal River. Nothing in the local stores comes close to comparing to the flavor and freshness that a 1 hour drive gives me. It's worth the drive and the price to get something we want to eat.

Not food related! I HATE APPLE! nOT THE EDIBLE ONES, BUT THE TECHNOLOGY. Plugged my iPhone in last night. When I tried to check the weather, a stupid thing popped up telling me that it's been updated, gave me what seems to be a whole encyclopedia's worth of c'rap, told me to put in a security code, and now it has been "updating" for the last 45 minutes.

Happened to me, too.

Drives me nuts ~ I had originally been set up for 'fingerprint' security. Unfortunately, the older I get the less fingerprint I have. I finally had to go to the Verizon (my carrier) and asked the 12 year old at the desk to disable the feature for me. I swear I can always hear them 'sigh' when I enter the store.

bet they couldn't dial a black desk phone if their life depended on it~LOL

I'm going through the issues now. I allowed the update, and now I need a code to open the phone. i phone 10. I don't want that feature. They said it's for security. ...... BS!

No cooking tonight......Dane's going out with 'the guys'.......

((can you tell how upset I am?     ~~NOT !!!~~ ))

LOL

Mine is an iPhone 10 also. Saw something on the net the other day which basically said "When your children/grand children roll their eyes because they have to repeat whatever you've asked the about computers/technology. Remind them that you had to teach them to wipe their behind!" LOL
