I am impressed with myself this morning - am on a roll. Got this thread ready to go went out and checked on the kitty from the repair shop - did not see her but put out fresh water and food. She hung out most of the day in the lilac bushes out back. I feel so sorry for her as she obviously misses her "daddy" who lost the shop. I think, however, some other critter is finding what I leave out so will probably not refresh anything in the evening - we shall see. Last two mornings the bowls have been empty but turned over which makes me wonder if perhaps there is a larger critter also hanging out. Am still trying to find Johnny who was there 30 plus years as he adored his cats, I think this was his last one - his world started collapsing about 5 or so years ago. After 30 years of marriage his wife walked in and told him she just did not want to stay married. He has lost everything and he is such a good man.
Dinner tonight - too early for me to figure that one out but Ricky wants barbecue so may have Davey toss some hot dogs on the grill. Davey enjoys doing that - imagine?! - and that is fine with me. I am beyond the stage of doing a lot of standing. LOL.
Another super chilly morning but it will get hot. Hope one and all will have a great day.

It is very hot here today, but I had already planned dinner and will be cooking a regular Sunday meal. My neighbor is in the hospital, so I am also making enough for the her family. Thank goodness for air conditioning.
Dinner tonight is Ina's skillet lemon chicken, saffron rice, salad from the garden with homemade dressing, and homemade honey-wheat dinner rolls. Ice cream for dessert.

We are in our fourth or fifth week of heat index temps above 100. It has been that way since mid-May. I'm doing chicken marsala in my Instant Pot with riced cauliflower, broccoli and cheese sauce and mac & cheese. I was doing pretty healthy until the whole mac and cheese, but I have it left over and will finish it. The chicken marsala recipe is a lighter one and more keto.

I could not find Marsala wine, so I got a dry white wine and will mix in a teaspoon brandy for every 1/4 cup of wine. Marsala is a brandy-fortified wine, so that will do. I got extra mushrooms to go in it since I love shrooms. I will brown the chicken first to add some extra flavor and bone broth if I need a bit more liquid.

@Tigriss------that looks so good that I want to lick the computer screen....

Thanks so much for the tip about the Marsala....I always have brandy and wine in the house.
I don't have or know what an instant pot is but tomorrow I will pick up mushrooms and make the Marsala.

It's a hot one for most of us. Slow cooker pot roast, mash potatoes & salad. It's easy and not much heat in the kitchen. Tomorrow will be leftovers for sure. Winifred, if someone loves to BBQ good for you. Let them do the work and enjoy!!!

It's so hot here that very little heavy cooking will be done for sure. Tonight we will have a salad with cut up chicken.
