Re: (...)
I found a container of ham & beans, so guess I'll make some cornbread and that will be a quick dinner.
What are you all up to?
Sharon, the Spaghetti with Fennel sauce & herbs is delicious!! Made it last night. I added ~2 T. heavy cream at the end, just seemed to call for it. will keep this one handy. We love fennel.

I'm thawing a steak for me and hamburgers for him (he prefers them to a steak!). Baked potatoes and sauteed spinach of some kind.
Practice safe lunch. Use a condiment.

I'm going to stuff some shells - three kinds of filling. Then I freeze them in sets of 8 for future quick dinners.

Isn't that a lovely sauce! Dinner tonight depends on what our plans are for the day. We went to Sam's club yesterday, so there's a beautiful sockeye salmon fillet & some lobster ravioli, and an amazing Dakota Beef corned brisket in the fridge.
If we stay home it's the ravioli with a shrimp sauce & grilled salmon with a nice salad with grapefruit sections.
If we head for Jamestown it'll be the corned beef.

" hamburgers for him (he prefers them to a steak!)." - I did too, when I was 10 years old.....
My mom loved it, saved her money.
That reminds me, Lorraine. It is so seldom I cook a beef roast, but we love French Dip sandwiches - I've been making them with ground chuck. Really tasty.

Not sure yet, still looking through a new/used chinese cookbook that I picked up on Amazon. Lots of easy recipes to choose from.

It's cold here (in the 30's--cold for us), so we are making a big batch of French onion soup, eat some and freeze the rest!!

I had a late workshop, so it's just spaghetti here...with a nice salad and some garlic bread.
Sharon, that ravioli and salmon sounds really good!

Thanks Daphne, but we just got home from town - so it's leftovers and tomorrow is salmon, Friday is corned beef, and Saturday is the President's day dinner. Sunday will be something with venison.
