What's for Dinner, Thurs., Nov. 20, 2014

[NJCher]

Sichuan Stir-fried Chicken with Peanuts.

Also, I made some caramelized onions. I thought it would be good to put them in my roasted vegetable soup and top it with melted provolone.

1. that sounds wonderful, not sure what we are doing

I think wife wants to go out. there was no note
or shopping list, when I got home.
and she always leaves a note or calls and leaves a message.

7. Good read on the signals.

Take her out!

2. Steamed pork bao (dumplings), garlic basmati rice, asparagus.

Hope you have a great Szechuan stir fry - it sounds great. I love sweet 'n sour, sweet 'n spicy dishes. Almost went for some take out at lunch but skipped on it. The bao will fill the bill.

3. Ribeye, baked potato, tomato salad, biscuits

Was a sale on all natural grass-fed beef rib roast. Slice off the rack of ribs, slice up the roast and you have ribeyes for about $3.00/lb less than buying them precut.

4. Hamburger on a pretzel bun.

Salad. Maybe with Caesar dressing. It is romaine, after all.

5. things taking up room in the fridge.

A quarter of a pomelo, a bit of that roast from a couple of days ago that's still in there, some tangerine-cranberry juice maybe.

6. Going out and there will be a buffet.

I am hoping the food is authentic. This is an event for the gringos on boats who have been arriving into the area in droves over the past two weeks. It coincides with the celebrations/protests going on today to commemorate the revolution (internal).

There isn't much going on here protest wise, but we are starting to get news from other parts of the country. The protests started late this afternoon.

Should have much more news tomorrow.

10. boats

This is an event for the gringos on boats who have been arriving into the area in droves over the past two weeks.

I think that sounds like fun!

Please tell us how the buffet was.

It's so interesting to think of all these people who live on boats converging at this time of year! You can be sure that if I was there, I'd be going from boat to boat, talking and having a ball with everybody!

11. It was great fun.

The buffet was excellent, the beer cold and the entertainment spectacular.

It's a great time of year to be down here.

And people who live like this are generally some of the most laid back, friendliest people you will ever meet.

You are like my DH. He spends much of his day visiting and comes back full of information and stories.

8. Ummm..not sure

I was thinking maybe a hamburger w/ lettuce, tomato and onion. (Mayo+ketchup, of course!) But the fridge is getting empty, so I'll dig out whatever is left before grocery shopping tomorrow. Cuke salad, perhaps?

I do know I have a couple of beers left, so there is that.

9. Leftover meatloaf for me.
