Yeah finally we are going to treat ourselves tonight and go to Red Lobster for all the shrimp we can eat. I can eat a lot of shrimp, esp as I haven't eaten anything yet today. I didn't go to bed until around 6 am and got up a bit before 2 pm. I may have to have a string cheese before we go around 6 because I'm getting hungry.

Sugar, make sure you try the terriyaki shrimp. Its my fave. We're planning on going again before the endless shrimp promo ends Nov, 9. I love that all you can eat shrimp cause I can eat a lot.

Just my husband and I home tonight so he's grilling a couple of New York steaks and we have a nice fresh sourdough baguette and I'm tossing a salad. Then hopefully staying away from the Halloween candy bowl!

The worst tacos I've ever made. Stupid corn shells were soaking up oil like crazy, then either tearing holes when we drained them OR so crispy they were cracking. Damm*t it all.

Broasted chicken breast, potato wedge and cole slaw. Haven't decided which tart, chocolate or lemon, to have later. You know that I did not cook any of this.

Red Lobster was delish! We ate far too many shrimp, we should probably be embarrassed.

Sugar, when we go for the endless shrimp we eat nothing but shrimp and take the rest home. Did you try the terriyaki shrimp? Yum, that is so good. You probably didn't seem my post above before you left.

Yes, we did try the terriyaki shrimp, it was very tasty. I do, however, think it could have been grilled another minute or so. I know shrimp cooks quickly but I think it was just a bit chewy. Good hint about taking the salad and potato home. DH had made terriyaki shrimp and steak for our anniversary last month.

Tuna caserole, baked beans, steamed cabbage w/bacon, potatoe salad, pea salad, coconut cream pie and/or pecan pie (didn't homemake the pies though - they are from the grocery freezer - Edward's brand were on sale for $4.99 each and I couldn't choose so I bought both)

Grilled some end-cut strip steaks, made green bean casserole and roasted rutabaga, potatoes and fennel. Made up for the nasty tacos yesterday.

I just got home from the office and am off tomorrow & the next day. Frank was eating left overs from last night when I got home which was good because I wasn't intending to cook - just drink a cpl of bacardi/diet cokes. (I did have a big lunch though)

i made THE BEST dinner that was sooooooooooo easy tonight! Make sure 9" x 9" pan is heavily BUTTERED before making. Saute 1 minced white onion, and 1 minced green bell pepper, take off heat and add 6 oz. of minced ham. Add this to one box of Safeway scalloped potatoes, made as per directions, in said pan. cook at 400 degrees for 35 minutes. OH SOOOOOOOO GOOD! and inexpensive! feeds 4, or 3 if hungry.

Cockaleekie soup w/beer bread - perfect for a chilly fall day.

Had to look up "cockaleekie soup" - never heard of it. I learn all kinds of things in here. Are you of Scottish descent, Teach?

I've tried a chicken enchilada casserole. Rather boring compared to cockaleekie. LOL

Yup - we're a wee part Scottish. The version I make is super easy: saute 4 cups of chopped leaks in 1 tb butter in large 4 quart pan. Remove and add 1 tb butter - then brown 1 1/4 lb. cut up chicken breasts in butter. Add leeks, 2-3 quarts chicken stock, and a 6 peppercorns, 6 whole cloves and 2 bay leaves tied up in cheese cloth. (I season chix and leaks w/salt and pepper when sauteing). Bring to a boil. Then add 1/2 cup quick cooking barley or 1/4 cup quick cooking rice. In ten minutes - soup's on! The cloves give it a wonderful flavor.
