in the air fryer. Smashed potatoes and garlicky green beans.

Oreos for dessert.

Corn muffins with honey butter
Fresh orange sections
Hot tea

Sausage and chopped meat, and all the yummy spices, egg, milk-soaked bread, Raisins in mine!
Spaghetti …. and heck, we have no salad makings

Comfort food is called for.

The Landlady is frying the pieces of a chicken in her grandpa’s cast iron pan flavoring the bird with bacon grease.

As the accompaniments, I’m making smashed potatoes which include most of the potato skins. I mix in a modest amount of butter, freshly chopped parsley and a dollop of sour cream. Steamed broccoli round out the dinner.

Tonight is Scrabble night. Brandy will accompany the game.

Homemade from scratch

With chopped bacon and a three cheese blend. Simple and comforting!
