1. Bierrocks

Which are kind of a homemade hot pocket, filled with ground beef and cabbage. Filling and tasty and kid-pleasing. I'll make the filling and let my 16 year old son do the rest while I work this evening. He likes to work with dough, but hasn't, shall we say, gotten into the Zen of chopping vegetables. I think his dad and 19 year old brother, coming home from college today, will like them.

Here's the recipe we're using: http://www.breadworld.com/Recipe.aspx?id=348 (omitting the American cheese and adding some mustard to the filling).

I work 3 or 5 nights a week, so don't cook as much as I once did. Just wanted to say hi to you all.

4. Those look really good and should be outstanding with home made dough.

Good for your son for baking. It is a skill he will be treasured for his entire life.

2. Great Northern bean soup, Waldorf Salad and

some hard rolls .

5. Yummy! Bean soup would be great today.

Overcast, chilly, damp.

And you can never go wrong with a waldorf salad, imo.

Enjoy!

6. Not when you put blue cheese in it, too!

It's sunny and in the mid 50's here, so unusual for Pennsylvania in mid November. Hope it stays this way for Thanksgiving Day.

3. BLT's and tomato soup.

Have some good bacon that needs eating and we can easily get the other fixings!

10. CA style stuffed quesadillas -

Two flour tortillas to make a quesadilla "sandwich" of sorts. Filled with -

Refried beans
Shredded beef

Browned flat on both sides in a skillet. Quartered on the plate.

11. That's one of our go-to meals when the fridge is getting empty.

That and a bowl of canned soup.

Love it!

12. No dishes for me...

we're going out.

The occasional Saturday evenings when I'm home and not working, we go out (actually, if I'm not home, partner still takes my Mom out...she lives with us...she's 91!)...something pretty CHEAP but still, no dishes or pans to clean up.

*Sigh*

13. Pork belly and watermelon salad

with a creamy mustard seed dressing and Parmesan reggiano
