Thread: Kissin' don't last, Cooking do!------Dinner November 5th?

@italiagirl--there's nothing like a taste of home, is there. I have a feeling that as my boys go off to college and beyond, there will be some special requests. My younger one likes to cook, so he'll be asking for the recipes to make for himself.

Reality of dinner--No red lentils ANYWHERE in my suburban town! Still made tikka masala but picked up two premade ditties for the sides--Rajma masala (red kidney bean curry) and dal bukhara (black lentil curry) each to see if the people liked them and would make them-for real- again. Big success except for spilling rice out of the bowl---silly red wine at a reception before dinner!!!

Mmm oyakodon! I must make that this weekend! :)

@Cassaendra I didn't have mitsuba though! that would've made it even better :-) maybe I have to grow them...

Confession- Got home late and didn't feel like cooking. Ordered a take and bake pizza. Got home. Discovered oven isn't working. Returned to take and bake and asked them to fire it in there oven. We all got a chuckle out of it (pizza guy, customers and me..well, not really me.) Called service repair man this morning......phhhttt!

liver/bacon/onions, mashed potatoes & spinach. After the comments on talk yesterday I just had to pick up some liver this morning ...

Steak and potatoes.

teriaki pork loin, jasmine rice, steemed broccoli.....with plenty of Siracha

Ribs, mashed potatoes. Maybe a salad to assuage the guilt. :)

Going Indian tonight: some sort of red lentil and chickpea stew, basmati rice, curried cabbage , turkey breast
