Left-overs for me tonight. I made a chicken salad sandwich, made some left-over potato's into salad as well and some cheese and crackers on the side. It was actually very light but very good....
BBQ ribs, corn on the cob, baked beans, tortellini salad, tomato salad, german potato salad, fresh pineapple and cantelope, olives, and for desert: trifle and home made ice cream.
I'm about to gain about 10 pounds.

Ummm...well, the local usage seems to be "prawns" for the big ones and "shrimp" for the small ones. At what size do they graduate from "shrimp" to "prawn"? Your guess is as good as mine.Originally Posted by pushylady
sounds good! Just curious, I thought "prawns" was a British/ Australasian way of saying "shrimp". Do you say prawns over in the West Coast, or do you just happen to more sophisticated than your average Canuck?
And they were AWESOME -- some of the loveliest we've had. Five of us devoured 7 pounds. I did in the end put out a bit of a salad bar, since there were a couple present who have recently discovered issues with grains, so I was not sure how they were going to be with bread. And dessert -- yes, even after that pigout we wanted dessert -- was fresh cherries with the third
Anyway, that was the first feed of the summer -- we'll do it again once or twice.
And tonight? I think pork cutlets on the BBQ -- I have a really nice little rub that we like. May grill some asparagus and do some nugget potatoes, or maybe do pita sammiches. For dessert, fruit -- there are still cherries, or raspberries, or mango...
Tonight we're having hot dogs w/sauerkraut. And baked beans.
My DH's cooking abilites are limited, I'm greatful that he's been doing so much and taking such good care of me. I feel guilt, but there's nothing to do about it.

Hey don't feel guilty! You're in pain and need to heal, so just take a break and let DH look after you.
Last night I made chimichangas which are so darn tasty and unhealthy!
Tonight I have the urge to cook something a little more fancy, but don't know what yet. I foresee a trip to the supermarket today. And now I'm craving coconut pie thanks to Pami!
Well, don't forget that half of that weight (approx) is the head and shell. It's still a pigout, but not quite as extreme as it seems at first glance.Originally Posted by pushylady
over a pound each!! That's definitely not a shrimpy meal!
For tonight, pasta. Spaghettini, I think, with homemade pesto, and assorted other friendlies.
I had quiche, salad with baby new potatoes
Oh I love baby new potatoes!Originally Posted by Rosiemac

Taco salad with turkey meat, and a delicious plum form a road side stand
We've already had snow here once in Wellington this winter. It didn't last long though but it still came!Originally Posted by pushylady
Oh you thrive in the cold do you? Next winter I'll send some -25 your way and see how you like it!OMG, can you even imagine Wellington covered in snow? It's already crazy enough to drive around.

Tonight was soup from a box and toast, washed down by a couple of beers. Yep, I'm on my second beer already!
It's a very balmy 8c here today. I rekon I could handle -25!
Not sure what's for tea tonight. Maybe some oven baked fish & chips before I head out to a meeting.
I'm having that tonight, with baby new potatoes again followed by strawberries with a yogurt poured over.
Sam, you call it tea as well like us
Yup, sometimes I call it dinner but it's usually tea. I'm very patriotic to my motherland!Originally Posted by Rosiemac

Tea for me was weird tonight.
I only call it dinner, if i'm out after 7.30.p.m with the girls for a meal, earlier than that it's teaOriginally Posted by WellingtonCats

Quite lazy today so just picked up a nice roast beef sandwich at the little deli down the street. I will have that with some raw veggies, and some left-over potato salad I have in the fridge.
It was a late night last night, and our guest decided not to drive home. When he surfaces, I'll go up and make some waffles for breakfast. My brain can't handle dinner yet.
