I'm making more pasta sauce out of the tomatoes from the garden so it's gonna be spaghetti and meatballs, salad and homemade garlic and herb bread sticks.

What about you?

Thursday 11 August 2011. Whats on the Table?

Entirely clueless for supper or even lunch today!

The problem is DD is here cleaning...DW is getting antsy to work on drapes and curtains whatever....she turned off the Cooling (bad idea) and thinks the outdoor air is cool .? ? ? ? ? ? ....I don't know what planet she lives on??but I don't feel any C O O L !

I guess burgers...and There is a small baby cabbage, and a kielbasi.
that may work for today. I guess I will have to make the move to start the cooking.
I sure would like to cook the kielbasi and cabbage on the grill in a cast iron pot. HMmmmm! It would be different, and keep the cabbage fart smell outside!:bbq:

Just about to take some venison out of the freezer. How I cook it will depend on what package I grab and the size of pieces in it.

OK GOOD!

Are ya ready??

Go Ahead...say it with me...
"THUMBS...TOUCH...BLUE...May Our Wish Come True!" ....... YAY!!! Hope we get our wish...

We would always touch our thumbs together and say that when someone would say the same thing together. Or think the same thing at the same time.

And Dad used to say.....(and I found out much much later what he meant)...

"Check before touching thumbs...you never know where the other thumb was before you made your wish!" ... Duh!...I would clammer!

I bought a beautiful piece of salmon that I think I'll smoke on the grill. I've got the cedar plank so I'm thinking lemon wood and cedar. Maybe.

We had an early dinner tonight: Chicken and smoked sausage gumbo. There's some rice under there somewhere. :)

Beautiful dinners so far, Mary and Mama. Both very professional looking pics - congratulations! I'm about to go start dinner - noodles and veggies and turkey breast and something...I'll make it up as I go along.

Look familiar? I reheated yesterday's leftovers but changed it up a bit using brown gravy instead of the tomato gravy and green beans instead of cheesy corn.

Like Karen, I made mine up as I went along.

I ended up with orecchiette with shrimp, peas, mushrooms and toasted pine nuts in a white wine/lemon/butter sauce.

It turned out really good - we'll have it again.

Thanks, Mama, I melted some butter and added a couple minced garlic cloves and lemon juice...that's it. It worked out really well.

I'm ready ladies. Bring it on! LOL

Everyone's dinners look great. I picked up some nice pork shoulder steaks, trimmed & deboned them and made chicken fried steak with mashed redskins & some chicken gravy I had in the freezer. I love those shoulder steaks because they stay nice and moist after frying. Sorry, we were going out right after dinner, so there are no pics.
