Watcha havin for dinner? Or had?

Wednesday night DH and I played music (fiddle, dulcimer and banjo, playing American fiddle tunes from the 1800's-1930's) for our local gourmet restaurant during the dinner hours. We do get paid money, but we also get to have a free marvelous dinner as well. I had pan seared sea scallops with garlic mashed potatoes and green beans- it was fabulous, but as usual was a huge portion.
So tonight I ate the other half of it as leftovers...mmmmmm
The kitties licked the platter clean...

I had leftover spaghetti, and the rest of the family had leftover pork roast that I did in the crock pot with bbq sauce. Delicioso!!

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm! Scallops!

It was going to be leftover pesto pasta, but someone who was home alone today during Spring break had a friend over and ate it!



So now I'm really scrambling...

Oh please explain how you make the pea vines? I saw some at farmers market last week and was wondering?

Hmmm, let's see, after 30 years of making dinner every night what sounds good...anything. frozen. or. out. of. a. can. We had frozen quiche and tomato soup out of a box (Trader Joes)...did I mention I'm sick of cooking?

Then make eggs! You know since you are scrambled.

Good one!

I had a bean, chicken, cheese burrito. DH had Aidell's chicken bleu cheese bacon burgers on bagel (yum!). Those are really good!

We had asparagus from the farmers market and American Flatbread Pizza (frozen) delicious healthy pizza (they make it in Los Alamos, Brandi!) And some chocolate chips out of the bag for dessert! Tokie

Tonight we're eating out at Northern Chinese cuisine restaurant. They make their own noodles...throwing around the stretched dough between the hands.

This time won't be ordering their lamb noodle soup..which I found a tad heavy. Lamb soup is not typical at all in southern Chinese cuisine so I found it as something "new".

Maybe have their soup dumplings --dumplings that contain soup broth...gotta to be careful to bite into one..

pea vines are very tender. You heat some oil, throw them in. I like to add a little sesame oil and salt for accents... after you toss them around in the hot pan for a bit, turn the heat down and let them steam for about 5 minutes. REALLY tasty

Shrimp and leek quiche, side salad of spring greens with local strawberries, raspberry vinigrette dressing. Washed down with a glass of sangria. The shrimpies were local too

It is politically incorrect to buy imported shrimp or crawfish in this part of the country. Besides, ours taste better.
