It's funny because I actually thought about changing it to say a tapenade with added or extra lemon and capers. Instead I went with what was the first thing I typed which is just the order I threw things on top of the sardines.

LadyCrimson Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 (edited) Lunch (crumbled meat is ground turkey) Snacks. To keep the sweet and snack cravings in control fruit is great. And a couple large tablespoons of vanilla ice cream, softened and mixed with lots o berries works well as a tiny treat. I may not be that impressed with "FOUR CAMERAS" in the phone but it does take better pics than the tablet at least. Edited July 21, 2020 by LadyCrimson 5 “Things are as they are.

Well to explain that, this was lunch: While tasty that wasn't very, say, satisfying. Dinner wasn't much different either (well less tomatoes and more picked peppers with sauerkraut and some bread with ham). Plus an awful lot of stress at work right now. Yeah... 2 No mind to think.

LadyCrimson Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Went to the local farmers market store (been around for 30 years). They had Rainer cherries. OMG I love those. I always called them "white cherries" - like "white peaches". Anyway, never liked Bing/purple cherries. But Rainer's ... I bought two bags and have to keep myself from eating more than a handful a few times a day. One of those truly nature's candies. 1 “Things are as they are.

Keyrock Posted August 5, 2020 Author Share Posted August 5, 2020 I gotta give props to the Kroger in southern Columbus, Ohio. I'm picking up a load in Columbus tomorrow morning, so after dropping my trailer at a nearby truck stop I bobtailed over to Kroger to do some shopping. I scooped up some spicy tuna rolls and this is probably the best supermarket sushi I've ever gotten. 1 RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyrock Posted August 7, 2020 Author Share Posted August 7, 2020 Earlier this year I did the carnivore diet for a little over 2 months and wound up losing 20 lbs. I am happy to report that a bit over 3 months after stopping the diet and going back to eating more balanced I have not gained a single pound back. I think the main factor is that I have stayed away from refined sugar like the plague.

Keyrock Posted August 11, 2020 Author Share Posted August 11, 2020 I made French onion soup.

Guard Dog Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 For dinner I made buttermilk biscuits from scratch. Kind of a pain but totally worth it. Two were enjoyed with strawberry preserves from my garden last spring and black coffee. Two more come breakfast time with more coffee and a little drizzle of honey 3 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyrock Posted August 12, 2020 Author Share Posted August 12, 2020 (edited) I made cheddar & broccoli soup to take on the road with me when I go back to work tomorrow. I haven't actually eaten a bowl of it yet, but I licked the ladle after I finished transferring it to tupperware bowls and it was delicious. Butter, white onion, carrot, clove of garlic, broccoli florets, chicken stock, half & half, shredded cheddar, corn starch to thicken, salt & pepper to taste.

LadyCrimson Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 (edited) So I'd found a brand of kim chi (they're in Oregon) sold via Amazon. Make it fresh when you order, bag it, send it to you. Came in 3 pounds. Store bought jars I've had were 14 oz I think, and I could eat two of those in a week easily so 3 pounds didn't seem like a huge stretch. Anyway, turns out 3 pounds is a lot (filled a giant mason jar) since after an initial binge week the amount eaten can drop heavily. Was dubious about online kim-chi but this is good stuff, I'll buy it again ... if I ever finish this jar. Still have almost 1/4 of it left. (originally full to the lid, time period minus 2 weeks while I was sick/not eating much...) Edited August 14, 2020 by LadyCrimson 1 “Things are as they are.

BruceVC Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 I decided to experiment yesterday with Spaghetti Bolognese, I used Pork mince instead of Beef and it was delicious Making meals like Bolognese is always a good idea because you can freeze extra mince and normally the mince I cook lasts for 2-3 days for other meals My " quick " Bolognese meal is easy Fry onions, garlic and mushrooms for about 4-7 minutes until onions are translucent Then add the Mince and brown it off for about 5 minutes Then add Tomato Puree and Tomato and Onion mix or other primary sauces ( I would also add Red Wine ) Reduce heat and slow cook for about 1 hour or so Add spices and additional flavors as you see fit 1 "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Gorth Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I'm a simple person, often enjoying the simple things in life. Especially now that winter is over and it's spring, so I can sit outside in a t-shirt and have dinner. Just a bit of steak and onions from the BBQ and some microwaved potato mash from the grocery store (yeah, boo!). The onions could have used a bit more, but I'll keep that in mind next time and start them 10-15 minutes before the steak 2 “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Azdeus Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Now, I'm not much of a cook, but there's a youtube channel I've been following during the epidemic, about different historical dishes sprinkled in with some history, and I absolutely love the show and the host. Been debating where to post it, but this seems the best place. Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.
