with gravy, garlicky green beans, and jasmine rice. No bake cheesecake for dessert.

We got 4 or 5 in. of snow today, with 1/4 in. of freezing rain still to come tonight. It's going to be a crockpot kind of week.

Lasagna
Sinful slab of buttery, cheesy, garlic bread
Tossed salad

Three inches of heavy wet snow overnight and then mixed precipitation left about a quarter inch of icy stuff on top. It seems to be turning to all rain. It was a great dinner for the day.

I don't know what FLFC had. TJ was his chef. They are both abed in a postprandial stupor.

Made the broth from veggies in the crisper and will add a little seasoning. Have a premade asian salad to go with.

Haven’t cooked in a few days. Traveled to see my grand daughters. Had some good meals out however.

One of my fav restaurants in MO does fried tenderloins that melt in your mouth. These are great on a bun with all the fixins but they go over the top as a open faced sammi on bread with mashed potatoes - and gravy poured over all. Omgosh! So fricken good! I had this twice in three days! (On the way from/to the airport. 😋

We were planning these for last night but other things interfered. One of our neighbors in the Catskills is an avid hunter and he gave us several pounds of his recent bounty. I'm not a hunter but I love good food and these cuts are beautiful.

I'm going to broil the tenderloins to a medium rare finish. The Landlady(!) is making a fresh broccoli soup and the meal will be completed with mashed potatoes and a spring mix salad with cherry tomatoes, slivers of carrots, green peppers and red onion.

Game meats can be hard to come by unless you live in a rural area. They're really quite delicious and nutritious. Up here in the mountains, we can get venison, rabbit various fowl and other unusual meats. In the city, we've found it quite difficult to find them, even in specialty restaurants or butchers. If you've never tried venison or a good rabbit stew, you might search it out and be surprised by how awesome it can be. Bison burgers are great, too, although we don't get them around here.
