I got really bored w/my recipes and ordered from Hungryroot last week. Now I'm just tired of cooking and am going out to dinner tonight!

DH and I are volunteering at a high school music event today. It'll be a long day but we're looking forward to it anyway.

Yesterday's roasted vegetables were so delish. I made enough to have leftovers for today.

Eggs

Cold & dreary with some light snow tonight. Ugh ... so much for our sunny 40 & 50 degrees days.

Lasagna, tossed salad & garlic bread for dinner. I made a cinnamon nut coffee cake for dessert with cocoa later. Have a nice evening.

Already February ❤️❤️. January flew by. We had some rain on Friday and most of the snow is gone. We ate out last night. I had fish, and SO, he had a sirloin. Both were really good. It's damp here, I may make some tuna noodle casserole for tonight.

@MOMMAVik Your desserts always sound so good! I found out that Trader's Joe's had O&H Kringle this week. I don't know if it's always stocked there. I don't go there often. I got a pecan! I'm curious if they have it at other times. First time I saw it there. Got one for my sister and BIL also. So good!

I hope everyone has a good week.

DH and I enjoyed ourselves yesterday afternoon. We saw someone we know and haven't seen in awhile, had a quick but good conversation. I also saw some former students & classmates of my kids who are now grown and have their own kids. Talk about making a person feel old! LOL

I normally don't buy premade packaged entrees but the other day at Aldi, something caught my eye. For a mass produced item, the ingredients are pretty decent - grassfed, no antibiotics, no soy, and the label said "minimal processing and no artificial ingredients", so I thought I'd give it a try.

Today's menu -

Park Street Deli Sirloin Steak Tips w/Chimichurri Sauce

Creamy Mashed Cauliflower w/Kerrygold Butter

Steamed Green Beans

Good morning everyone. Yestauday was cold and rainy and today cold and cloudy with a couple inches of snow tonight. We ate with Anna yestauday and she made fettuccini Alfredo, broccoli rab, sausage and potatoes and peas with fresh Italian buns and green grapes. Last night I had a bowl of cinnamon life cereal and ria had a peanut butter sandwich. I'm on my second cold and it feels like its never going away. Tomorrow I will be making chicken and broccoli with baked potatoes. Have a wonderful week everyone.

@lynnie61 Yum! Pecan Kringle is really good! I hope you & your sister & bil enjoy it.

DH is at his fishing club seminar this afternoon. I am making myself breakfast for dinner. Slicing up a baked potato to pan fry. An omelet with cheese & veggies and half a bagel with cream cheese & lox.

With the egg prices going up by the day we have been trying to conserve a bit. Honestly, I think they are a healthy part of our diet so we will continue to buy them.

Have a good day everyone.

Wow February all ready!

My son smoked some wings and brought us some. I made us salads and brownies.
It's been warmer for us and after Tuesday it's back in the 30's. I am off all week which I'm so happy for and have a list of things I want to do. DH has a couple of appointments as well.

@Pooky1 I hope you feel better @lynnie61 I am glad your BIL is doing better. This winter has been rough for so many. My five year old GS has had a fever and cough and they are just trying to keep him away from the baby.

Have a good evening everyone!

Good morning! Would you believe, we’re expecting a high of 58* today? That’s crazy. It’ll be cooler the rest of the week with a few inches of snow predicted, but then some rain in there too and temps around 40* that I don’t think the snow will last. Time will tell. Then next week it gets real cold again.

The steak tips and chimichurri sauce were good - a little peppery but I didn’t mind. The meat, during the processing, was cooked via a sous vide method. Basically I just browned it a little and added the sauce that came in a separate packet. The meat was very tender. I’d buy it again, maybe even check out some other offerings from this brand.

The plumber will be here today regarding the fireplace gas pipe alteration. I hope he can do the job so we can move forward sooner than later.

DH will fend for himself today. I’m fasting until lunch tomorrow.

Making grilled chicken salads tonight for us. I might make some garlic bread. I have a peach berry pie (will take some to my dad). We don't need a whole pie!

@JeanLouiseFinch Near 60 for us today!

DH is making pulled pork for sandwiches and cole slaw. We are trying a new brand of sugar free BBQ sauce.

Oven baked chicken wings with bbq sauce, rice and peas & carrots. Pulled our last cranberry bread from the freezer for dessert. In a few weeks I'll bake more as we have some frozen cranberries.

It is getting cold again. Going for groceries Wed. so planning out a few days meal ideas. Getting a bit bored with our menus but still prefer winter cooking to summer!

I made a new recipe, "creamy crock pot ravioli and spinach". It was very good and thankfully, very easy because I was running around all day and didn't have time to fuss.
