October 2008

Let the ideas flow . . . (from VB Chatroom:)

14:10:17 Verna: ok so what did we decide for dinners this weekend?
14:11:33 Verna: split pea and andouille soup for the cold day
14:13:09 Verna: steamed chix and split pea
14:13:56 Bob: yep with andouille?
14:14:18 Bob: regular chinese steamed chix veggies rice?
14:15:27 Verna: yes
14:19:05 Bob: ok good steamer on saturday and soup on sunday

Saturday: Chinese-style Steamed Chicken and accoutrements.

Sunday: Yellow Split Pea Soup and Pumpernickel Bread

Looked in the freezer and saw a lot of pork spareribs. We should crockpot a rack this weekend. Also, there was a package of frozen spinach – something “Florentine” seems appropriate . . .
