What's Cooking for November 2017 - a turkey perhaps?

Winifred — Wed, 01 Nov 2017 11:55:31 GMT

Hi Everyone. I did not forget to try and get this right for November. Preds I saw your delightful greeting and will try to get it copied over here. Not sure I can do it as since Windows 10 unloaded itself on my pc, I can't find the copy button any more. I just cannot figure out a lot of the things that were changed and I cannot figure out how to correct them - never have had that problem before with a program change. Do NOT like Windows 10 at all. Also cannot pull up my pictures I load on the PC, that use to be so easy. Darn it anyway.

May get back later after I figure out what for dinner. Ricky having his session this morning in Banning - Sherry is going with me since she has Ricky a lot she too needs to work in the same mode as I do - hopefully it will help him.

Have a great day one and all.

What’s Cooking? Well earlier today did some cleaning around the house while DH made our front porch fountain no longer the fountain of blood it was for Halloween. It looked great though.

Then we took a break and sat in the spa.

Now I have a Chile relleno bake in the oven. We are all set to watch the baseball game tonight.

Good evening to everyone!

Got Ricky to his class and the neighbor was on the way to work about 11 and asked if he could spend some time with Ricky later in the day when he got home. So Ricky hung out and the neighbor did not get home until about dark - so much for that. LOL

Frozen dinners tonight - I did not have one and am a tad hungry so should get something. AVocado and an apple sound kind of good - maybe dumb to some but I love combos like that.

Glad to see you all jump on board this first day of November.

@Pooky1

Thank you for the warm welcome!

The fountain looked really creepy, especially once it was dark. DH just had to flush it the next day so the water was back to normal.

Had one of those huge pizza's from Aldi's. It was a Supreme and they are so very good!!! Have "some" left over so when it cools will put it in a ziplock. They are sooooooooooooo very good.

FINALLY got the Cortisone shots in both thumbs - a good 6 months late but my new Primary MD is the pits. She does NOT do shots. Can you imagine. But I got them and the thumbs AND HANDS COMPLETE already feel so much better and I can use them better. Should not have waited so long but the tribulations of having a primary MD who does not do shots is the pits. Went to Urgent Care and they have two MDs there who do shots - so I will start calling as they were nice enough to give me their names - one I already knew but had no idea he did the shots or you could get them there. It was a nightmare going to my new primary, setting up an appointment for her, then she gave me a referral and setting up an appointment for whomever=- took forever. Now I know - Urgent Care. Yippee!

Have zillion things to do tomorrow like get my Flu Shot, some grocery shopping, etc.Took Ricky to the park for chicken nuggets and the slides - COLD and WIND came up about 45 minutes after we got there - no more for me. Had to leave.

Hope one and all had a great day and hope you have a better tomorrow. Do know one of these days will just drop in at Pooky1's home for some of the good food there. LOL>

I finally remembered it was a new month, finally found this last night. We have been living on leftovers so havn't cooked so nothing to post, lol.

@Danky My snack last night was grilled naan and fresh mozerella drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and garlic, salt and pepper, it was actually dinner for me, but I had a little sauteed chicken thighs, boneless/skinless, earlier along with the dogs, lol, DH wanted beef patties, naan and salad.

Grey day here, supposed to rain, but I will believe that when I see it, most likely will be a drizzle. We aren't going to have the wonderful rainy season we had last year.

Always good interesting food here - love it. We had fried cabbage and cornbread tonight - It was really good. Nothing left at all. That is not DAvey's favorite as he prefers junk big time but he knows he cannot refuse it in my house. At least he gets pretty good dinners. Am not a junk food addict and that helps with him. LOL>

Very very chilly tonight - I guess Fall is here for sure and winter inching up on us. Three years ago we had 7 inches of snow in early November - in Sou Cal one never knows. I sure wish I had a heating blanket - use to but have no clue where it disappeared to. Geesh.

Hope one and all had a great day.

A neighbor made our day for last night's dinner. Rob, has lived on this street for quite some years now - he is manager of a auto repair place in Fontana. He, like a lot of us, however, has had some serious health issues this year. He is not allowed to work on vehicles any longer but is at work daily and does most of his work now at a desk - they are obviously super good to him. He is a great cook and loves doing that. He sent over a HUGE pot of home made spaghetti for dinner last night. Very very good. I think his biggest problem is beer - he has always had a severe problem with that but has cut back - wish he would just stop!!! His drinking has not impacted his behavior as he is a super person - just his health. So sad. But sure appreciated the food - enough left for a couple more meals. Now that means I have to start thinking about tonight's food don't I?

Cold this morning - for sure. Davey helped me get all the persimmons off the tree before the birds did - they were moving fast this year as most are still hard. Now I am having trouble finding someone who wants them - never had that problem before but those who use to bug me for them - LOL - are either not around any more or have stopped doing a lot of baking, etc. Sigh.

HOpe all have a great day.

@Winifred Have you thought of making persimmon quick bread, freeze them for later. I make pumpkin, nut, raisin bread in small pans and wrap them individually, then freeze in a large plastic bag, actually I get three bags as I triple the recipe, problem is, I can't stay away from them, lol.

Just not sure my energy level can hold up to persimmon bread and/or cookies - do like them both. Sure wish you all lived on my little street Pooky - real easy to get those persimmons. Just having a hard time realizing life goes on while some things do not. Sigh. Will NOT toss them however an I will not let those birds eat them - Love my feathered friends but no persimmons. Will look and see if there is a way to freeze them - amazing how many things do get frozen .

Am tired and need to hit the sack and get ready for my early morning jaunt to Beaumont. Hope all had a great day.

Hi Everyone---thinking of all of you.

@Winifred----I contacted QVC to ask if I could send you an electric blanket without them telling me who you are.....they said no.

If you can think of a way that I can do that and protect your privacy, please let me know. NOTHING would make me happier than to gift you.

good evening everyone. cold front just came thru and temps dropped way down and winds picked up. end of week temps will be in the 30a and 20s at night and chance of snow showers. way to soon for that.guy came today with parts to fix dishwasher and while he was fixing it 2 other parts fell apart. he said and this is what happens when everything is made out of plastic so now were waiting for whirlpool to approve these other parts before they can come back to fix it. tonight ria made red peppers potatoes with fryed eggs fryed in same pan with potatoes.eggs go in alittle before potatos are cooked so just one pan.hope everyone has a great week. and danky good luck with the electric blanket. thats so nice of you.

My trucker girl is home until tomorrow, so her request was for burger and beans (browned hamburger and onions with pork and beans), cornbread, and salad.

I am 19 days post op from knee replacement, and just starting to venture into my kitchen for simple meals.

@RedTop Now that sounds like an easy dinner I would like! I could skip the salad! Not sure my husband would like it..we had pulled pork bbq's & tater tots tonight!

@How is your knee feeling? Are you still having PT @ home?

Hoping the pain is just a nagging ache by now..I have just about decided to have my other knee replaced in the spring..it is starting to bother me some, probably due to the cooler weather..well, hang in there..hope all is well!
