1. The temps keep climbing, the neighbours grilled yesterday, but it was still cold out then to me.

But I might be tempted to try today, or maybe tomorrow, depending on when things have thawed out from the freezer.

Spring cleaning continues apace, and I've shredded several bags worth of old bills and miscellaneous papers with confidential info, and recycled several further bags of just old mail and paperwork that I'd left sitting on shelves or desks in piles for years. I am NOT going to end up like the hoarders that were living across the street, where the bank has been clearing garbage out of their house for months. I've got a month or so til we have visitors coming to stay for a week or so, and I'm going to have my bedroom and study cleaned up before they get here, and not have to leave the doors closed like I did the last time they visited.

(Edit: it continued nice out, so we did grill, so I had a hamburger and mashed potatoes.)

2. Cabbage, some turkey leftovers from last night

mashed potatoes and gravy.

3. Turkey breast, dressing and gravy.

Same as last night.

4. One more here with turkey leftovers.

I'm going to do mashed potatoes in the waffle iron, and top it with turkey and gravy. That will leave me with potato skins to stuff for tomorrow's dinner.

5. Sirloin steak, sweet potato fries

And a vegetable, which I think will be mixed broccoli, carrots, and summer squash. I will top that with an herb butter.

I'm going to season the sweet potato fries with chipotle pepper.

My dinner will be late, as I am thrown way off by this DST change.

6. We had cheese enchiladas with guacamole sauce, refried beans and

An avocado/tomato salad.

7. old standby greek meatballs and bulgar pilaf

...with a small chopped cucumber-radish salad and Klondike bars for those who want a sweet.

I need to use up the rhubarb in the freezer, so perhaps I'll make a crisp for a late night snack.

8. just walked in the door

it will likely be either a salami sandwich and pasta salad or a tabbouleh pita.

9. pasta va zool

A simple peasant soup - pasta and kidney (red) beans. Add some tomato sauce, and some olive oil seared with some fresh garlic - pour the oil into the soup.... simplice, pero perfecto!

(it was again too late to have "big" meal.... so I made a simple soup.)

Funny how that which I grew up as a kid.... always comes back to me as an adult.
