What's For Dinner - Part Deux

[Marilyn. 340]

So, this morning I donated all of my dishes, pots and pans to the Salvation Army, as I'll be moving tomorrow, and won't need them either at my temporary location, or my ultimate destination.

I came home, and was about to get out a tin of soup to eat for lunch before I realized I had absolutely nothing to cook it in! I sold my microwave a week ago, and don't have a single soup-cookin' dish left. So A&W it was.

Tonight I think I'll splurge a bit and get sushi from Sushi Garden. Sucks to know it may be the last time I ever go there, since I'm moving quite a ways away from Burnaby (Langley).

Mmmmmm - A&W - last time you'll be eating there for a while too too

they have A&W in the US too...

They do...but not in the D.C. area, oddly enough. I remember seeing one or two along the way in Western Pennsylvania while driving from D.C. to Buffalo...but they're not as common in that area as they are around Vancouver, at least.

Mind you, I still won't be moving down to D.C. for awhile yet Ant (awaiting the interview...), and there's an A&W about two miles from where I'll be living next. So don't count on today being the last time just yet.

yeah I just checked and there isn't many in that area.. there is one that is just under 6 miles from Washington, DC though in Hyattsville, MD

so yesterday we stopped at the local park for the tree lighting .. they had a little market area set-up with different booths that sold crafts, other items and food... so we got some fajitas from one.. they were pretty good and for desert we had a donut trifle, it was yummy..

later in the evening hubby made some yummy scrambled eggs....

A word to the wise. Don't buy Belgioioso parmesan cheese. The grocery store didn't have any parmesano reggiano so I thought I'd try the american version. What a waste of money. I threw it out. I wonder if I could have taken it back and said "This cheese sucks." lol

I just rediscovered one of the little joys of moving back to my parents' place (on a very temporary basis! I have to keep telling myself that to avoid going insane):

My mother makes a wonderful roast beef...and so tonight I dined on roast beef, mashed potatoes, corn, sweet buns and Yorkshire puddings, covered in thick gravy.

Mmmmmm...burp...mmmmmmm....

sounds good ^^ are there any leftovers?

I am leaning towards tuna sandwiches for dinner here.. I was out and about and just got home a little while ago...

We're leaving for Thanksgiving with my in-laws, so I don't want to make anything that is going to require leaving leftovers in my fridge! Going to try and make things the next couple of days that involve using stuff in my fridge so that it's almost empty. Tonight, I'm thinking, peppers and onions with roasted beef strips on chibata buns. Tabouli salad to accompany.

Tonight we are having homemade chicken soup with salad.

Last night I made a fab dessert! I cut up bananas then added whipped cream, chopped white chocolate (or you could use white chocolate chips), and chopped macadamia nuts. Easy peasey and ohsogood.

What are sweet buns?

[Wyatt's Torch 45]

What are sweet buns?

Buns that are made with sweeter dough than sourdough?

I don't think they're actually CALLED sweet buns...they're more like dinner rolls, I guess. But they're sweet, dammit!

Oh. Well, you'll have no problem eating the bread here then. lol

Baked potato soup is on the menu tonight. Yum.

[Sprailenes 47]

Roasting tomatoes in the oven as I type for my roasted tomato soup tonight. Going to make some perogies to go along with it later too.

[Krikit 1,164]

Darn! Now I feel like tomato soup instead of chicken!

[Sprailenes 47]

Sorry. If it makes you feel any better chicken soup sounds pretty good to me right about now.

Hey Wyatt's - that kind of sounds like some kind of asian bun?

I am making salsa chicken in the crock pot.. I just sprinkled some spices over the chicken, like oregano, cumin, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder etc and then I poured some salsa over that and then sprinkled a few green onions over top...
