and grilled cheese sandwich.

Scrambled the eggs with onion, mushroom, and cheddar. The steak was thin sliced ribeye, seasoned with salt, garlic powder, pepper, and thyme. Two mini slices of gluten free sweet Hawaiian bread. A couple diced yellow and red grape tomatoes on the side.

For dessert: Blueberry and banana smoothie with one strawberry (I'm not a huge strawberry fan, lol. One is perfect, adds just the right hint of extra flavor). A little cinnamon and brown sugar to sweeten the milk. I've started keeping the bananas in the freezer with the berries. They work great in smoothies, even better than when not frozen.

I sure missed having soup. Worked through the leftovers from the holidays.

It's wet and chilly in the Catskills so we've been playing with a pot of chili since lunch time.

Ground beef, chopped onions, chopped green peppers, chopped Jalapeño peppers, crushed tomatoes, tomato paste and a whole bunch of spices.

Dinner rolls with butter and homemade cole slaw.

broccoli


slice of coffee cake for dessert


(I miss Dad)

was going to make chili verde, but there were too many leftovers from yesterday and the day before, so dinner ended up being the last of the leek and potato soup, with a green salad and some fresh sourdough
