What's For Dinner?

Steak. I wanted a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

What. No fried bananas? Okay, seriously, Mumsie. Who do you live with? I would kill for someone to make me steak when all I was thinking of was a sandwich.

I really outdid myself today. Basmati rice with cumin & garam masala (Bren's favourite e-v-e-r); black-eyed peas with bacon and a sh1tload of chili, corn on the cob; and currently have gravy-cheesy-potatoes in the oven. Once that's done, in go the whole wheat blueberry muffins.

WOW. Can I come to your house for dinner?

We went out to dinner to celebrate our anniversary (it was on V Day and we had stayed in then). Hubby and I shared coconut shrimp and fried calamari for appetizers, he had salmon with a spinach stuffing and I had veal and shrimp. For dessert, he had creme brulee and I had chocolate bread pudding. Was VERY yummy It was definitely worth it, even though the roads were horribly icy and we slid into a snowbank on the way home (car is fine, we're fine, just a little freaked out, especially since, when we started spinning, I was praying we wouldn't hit anything with enough impact to set off the airbag. Thankfully, we didn't. We drove about 10 miles an hour after that, saw where at least 4 others had slid off the road). BUT ..... the food was STILL worth it

Oh, I am SO glad you guys are safe. That sounds like an AMAZING dinner. Creme brulee is my favourite. In fact, I almost made it this evening. But I wanted to get rid of my bananas so we had a kind of chocolate banana pudding with custard and raspberries. Happy anniversary, Autumn!!!!!

Thanks Crikey Your pudding sounds delicious, do you have a recipe or was this a spur of the minute creation?

BTW, thanks for reaffirming that my husband did eat a really gross sandwich! He continues to claim it was delicious (blech!).

Yes, it was truly a gross sandwich. But I'm not surprised that he thinks it was delicious. Which, in fact, turns out to be good news for you. You can feed him ####### from now on and he should sing your praises. If he does not, let him go back to self-made ####### sandwiches. That should straighten him up.

The pudding was actually surprisingly delicious. There was no recipe but this is what I did. I wanted to get rid of ingredients I already had in the cupboard so I took some banana arrowroot cookies (brought from Canada) spread some chocolate pudding on top, sliced bananas, then some banana pudding on top of that, then some more banana arrowroot cookies, then some banana pudding, then some raspberries, then some chocolate pudding, then some sliced bananas, then some custard poured over top. I would have used whipped cream but I didn't have any. But I think the custard worked just as well.

Nobody beats Mumsie in the kitchen. Seriously I do know how to cook a bit, don't all men?

My Husband can and does cook. He actually likes some weird things, well things - yesterday for lunch I made him the ever popular canned spaghetti grilled sandwiches.

He can cook anything really.

IR5 wanted a PBJ sandwich - he had steak = he lives with Mumsie and Pops

I am eating leftovers from dinner last night right now.... MMMMMMMM .... mashed potatoes, veggies, shrimp and veal

I put a pork roast in the slow cooker this morning, so dinner tonight will be bbq pulled pork sandwiches, baked beans, potato salad and something for a veggie ... not sure exactly, just whatever I pull from the freezer.

That sounds delicious Autumn. I will be having leftovers from last night's chicken stir fry for lunch.

Naturellement! Until I hit the books again, I'm staying at home.

Just because DH can cook something doesn't necessarily mean it's edible.
