SUPPER CLUB - April Fool's Day

[purrfect-lady]

Good Morning! Seen any good pranks this morning? I'm going easy on my DH this year in hopes he does the same to me!

Glad you all thought my chops sounded tasty the other day. I sometimes use apricots or plums in that sauce. And I use it for chicken a lot, too. Goes great served with rice.

TINA - surprise!! Easter is, indeed, this Sunday. I think it's catching everyone off guard. Who is "everyone" that is coming to dinner at your house? and what are smooth burritos? Layered in a casserole is all I can think of, rather than rolled up. You are such a good cook, I know it will be tasty!

JO - it's sometimes bittersweet to see our own traditions taken on by the younger generations. Deviled eggs are one of my favorites! Unless, like happened once, I bite into one and it has SALMON in it! YUCK!!

CHICKIE - if I know you, you served a wonderful supper to Teresa and Rob and now have lots of yummy leftovers!

IRISH - so sorry about your eagles if tears need to be shed. They are such majestic creatures. My friend lives on waterfront not far from us and most years she has a nest in an old snag visible from her deck. Sorry you will be painting. I was hoping you meant a picture, but when you said Jim said, "use latex", I was fairly certain it's a room. We did all ours in September. Ugh! and I see I've got my sewing room already all marked up again! Sigh.

BECCA - you're right! It's a real priviledge to get to see eagles soaring!

LADY CAROL - your weather sounds too attention-getting for me! Sorry you didn't get to go out in your caravan, but a bit of the fun gets dampened if you are stuck inside the entire time.

CAROL 7 - haha! Don't be impressed by a sudden supper at MY house! I thawed another chop in the micro, threw some more potatoes in the pot, and opened a second can of green beans. I keep bacon bits in the fridge (God Bless Costco) so I fancied the green beans with a few of those and some minced onion. They tasted like my mom's. No bread and no dessert. I have to tell you, that we still use your brine recipe for pork roasts. sure makes a difference!

I'm not sure about tonite. As usual, when I start this thread. I have 1/2 chop left, a dab of potatoes, and a few beans. I might make new food . . That could be meatloaf and baked potatoes. I saw a thing on FB a few weeks ago and the meatloaf was cooked in a bundt pan and the mashed pottoes were mounded inside the ring. Made a cool presentation! It looks fancy, but it was just plain old meatloaf.

Are you eating fancy tonite?

Nothing fancy here tonight. I'm thinking some more lasagna and salad. We had that Sunday night with Rob and Teresa. I had soup last evening, and DH had chicken with a baked potato and some baked beans. We had brownies last night for dessert. Tonight's will be apple crisp... also from the weekend.

The meatloaf and mashed potatoes would be beautiful! It would be really cool with green mashed potatoes in it for St. Patrick's day!

Enjoy!

Good morning,

Dinner - I need a major grocery run today. But first I have to bring up the stock from the basement and fill up my pantry in the kitchen. Then take inventory of what needs to be re-stocked. A big chore!

Beautiful day here, in the last few minutes, my puffy white clouds have turned gray and it may rain.

Enjoy,
Jana

Good late morning from a very sunny and getting warmer, SW. Pa...I just went out on the porch to shake the bathroom rugs and was pleasantly surprised...It's almost warm enough to hand those sheets outside, almost.....
But, that sun has me moving and it seems to have helped Jim, lol...Don't want to say this too loud but he's upstairs painting...I need to put a 2nd coat on the window (I painted white over wood) and then it should be done.....1 down and lots to go.....

Mary, Meat loaf is always good, fancied up in a bundt pan or just plain old meat loaf.....And, you make those dinners sound so easy...I would be in a panic and have been but have found a way not to be quick to invite...I'm letting it up the kids whether they all want to come here for breakfast on Sunday or eat at our regular "joint"...I might be slow to invite but I sure jumped on the chance to go to Kevin's, didn't give his wife, Cindy, a chance to take back the offer....

Carol, my heavens, that weather doesn't sound good...To bad you won't be getting out in the caravan but just think of the future trips....Hope all is settled down by now....

I'm thinking our dinner will be breakfast...I got a new waffle iron and I really should try it out just in case we do happen to have the gang here on Sunday....So, breakfast sounds good to me and guess who isn't baking again today....But, then I've said that before and all of a sudden, the mixer comes out and the oven goes on.....

Happy eating...............

Almost forgot, if you want to see some darn cute cat pictures, go to www.bing.com.....I want them all.....

Mama's Grill tonight! We had to go to Meijers for Easter candy to put in the 200 plastic eggs for the egg hunt...and some for the two Easter bowls inside. Luckily, little Ryan and his mom stopped this afternoon and helped fill the eggs!

It is a beautiful day today...almost 70 deg. and sunny! Tomorrow it's rain..
