Re: WOW!!! Here it is October 2018 already - What's cooking in your kitchen?

Hi everyone.  I really haven't been cooking much, hubby has.  He has been on a low carb/low fat diet.  I haven't been ready to jump in with him, until today.  So, I have yogurt in the instant pot and I made a pasta dish without the pasta.  

 

I used onions and orange peppers from our produce box, browned some sausage, low sugar spaghetti sauce and zooddles.  It smells so good!

Yes indeed it is so nice to get the chill out in the mornings. 

 

Never has warmed up so the timing was good - we had a big storm all Friday night and slight drizzle most of he day yesterday. Ditty hung out and thank goodness the Possum did not show again - or at least I did not see it again. They are sneaky critters so it could have been here when I was not looking.

 

Got two more loads of clothes done yesterday but they are not all put up. Still have that to do - hopefully before church, then come home and do some more straightening up - THEN go and get the kids and the noise and confusion starts all over again.'

 

Pooky1, as usual, food always sounds good in your household.

 

Hope all have a great day!

My gosh Pooky1 I thought I was perhaps one of the super few who still preferred line dried clothing - they smell sooooooooooo good. Just getting harder for me. When I meet up with y mother up above however I am going to tell her I outdid her as far as long as we could hang out clothes. LOL. Lost her at 82 - so sad - and I am almost 85 and still use the clothesline - although a struggle - and she gave it up a couple years before we lost her. Sure miss her!

 

A beautiful day here today - need to put out more bird seed tomorrow however. Had chicken "tenders" a few orange chicken pieces in the WOK with a ton of veggies. ALL were leftovers but worked well for dinner tonight.

 

Church was great - as always - and got some work done here in the house before I picked up the two little ones in DEvore - they are scrappy which bothers me. Davey got home about an hour later - he was with his Dad this weekend. Good for him but gave him a lecture about getting his chores done BEFORE he leaves and WHEN HE GETS HOME. Geesh. He was in a great mindset which is always nice. 

 

We are now on fire warnings all over my area - typical this time of the year and that rain Friday night and yesterday will help a bit.

 

Did I tell you all Davey has great grades except one - am so proud of him.

 

Hope all had a super great day

Just got a text that my trucker daughter expects to be home by suppertime.    Already decided on cube steak, gravy, mashed potatoes, sliced tomatoes, and biscuits, which is one of her favorites.   

 

Another cool, rainy day here in southern WV.   We aren’t expected to warm above our current 62 degrees.

Used to cook all day every Sunday and freeze a great deal of it.

 

I'm not able to 'cook up a storm' like I used to.

But I sure love reading about what everyone else is cooking!

Good cold morning everyone - but do not let that fool you - going to be in the low 90s today. Weird I know.

 

Everyone is eating good - Pooky1 you ll have some of the greatest meals. I would never be able to cook all that good stuff. 

 

Must fill the bird feeders today - have a zillion things to get done and am not sure it will all happen. Time will tell but the feeders are super important and also time to get Ditty some more food.. Sigh$$$$$$$$$ !!!!

 

Have a great day everyone.

Our supper plates were filled with turkey breast, gravy, stovetop stuffing, corn, cranberry sauce and rolls.   Got the fridge cleared of leftovers yesterday, so I had to start fresh today.
