What's for Dinner ~ Tuesday ~ Oct 1st?

[Lucinda]

Uhm...first of all...how the heck did it get to be October already? I feel like a missed the whole summer.

And I have no idea about dinner. Two of my sisters are coming in Wednesday, and we are just grabbing things as we can, while getting ready for their stay.

You?
?

1. I'm thinking a cabbage and Northern bean soup.

But it's supposed to get close to 80 today, so I might be tempted to grill.

12. Turned out great! I'll have to post the recipe.

2. Spaghetti.

Seemed like a good October thing to make. Of course, it's 80 degrees in Chicago today.

3. Hamburgers!

So my friend has brought some kosher ground meat with him, which is fantastic.

He loves my hamburgers.

Now if I can just get DH to set up the new grill, we are good to go!

Glad you have family coming. Enjoy.

I used this recipe as a starting point... didn't really change too much.

13. Fish burrito. Blackened salmon, avocado, lime, slivered red pepper, rice. Orange wedges w/ mint.

Yeah, October snuck up on me too. Enjoy your sisters' visit.

14. chicken

It was fixed two ways: one in arabiatta (spelling?) sauce and the other with coconut-lime panko.

The resident cooking wizard also made a huge mixed vegetable dish--broccoli and lots of other vegetables. There was some kind of cream in it.

For dessert, sponge cake with blueberries in the middle and again, some type of cream filling.
