Wednesday's Dinner - 11/16/16??
What's on the menu for everyone today??
I've often heard it ain't nice to confuse olderly people... and it's true. With all these leftovers in the house, I'm having a hard time choosing and keeping track. I made a new pizza dough the other day and I can't even work it in to try it out!!
Not sure yet what will be chosen for today!! At least no leftovers from the bar last night - the compressor went out in the storage area and all they had were un-refrigable snacks. : But, plenty of booze.

It's a dreary, soup kind of day today. So, I'm thinking of making Chicken Pho from the stock that I put in the freezer the other day. But, it's early, so that's subject to change.
Jean, thank you for the recipe! Isn't it interesting that you put mustard on the burger, then flip to put cheese on the other side? I never would have thought of that but sometimes it is done with other meats, so why not? We will be trying this for sure since it's the only way to get some idea of what the famous In-n-Out burger tastes like.

I'm anxious to try it also.
So, finally decided for today - Jammed up Pork Chops (from one of my books, but can't remember which one..... duh) and cabbage gratin

Oh, that looks like a keeper. Please let us know, Trixxee.
Dinner menu changed here to the Korean Beef and Rice dish that seemed to be rather popular last week. The sauce sure is tasty!

Looks yummy, Jean!
I need to check that out, Trixxee!
William chose to stay tonight so we could work late. This sent me to Walmart for essentials. I guess I need to pack a bag and put in the van for unscheduled sleepovers. We have a preferred builder doing a HUGE gas station/convenience store close by. He has us on retainer, so when he calls, we stop, drop, and run. The guys ran out there this afternoon and worked until it was too dark to see. Papa John's was pretty good.

We're having pizza using a new crust recipe. Fingers crossed. Not sure on the toppings yet.

I'm looking forward to hearing about that new pizza crust recipe.
Ron picked up some "grillin' chops" from the meat store, so they will soak in a brine for a few hours, then go on the grill. Something green on the side. I have to go produce shopping so that will be determined later.

Looks great Jean! About the chicken recipe - it was great, but if you want enough sauce to top pasta, rice, couscous, etc. with I would double it. It reduces down pretty fast and I would have liked more sauce because it was so delicious. I used fresh basil for the garnish.
Tonight it's a lasagna soup, but not C@H's. Trying this one.
