2. Going to dinner party

The hostess is Polish and usually makes Polish food -- kielbasa, noodle dishes, etc. Yum!

4. Today Mrs. Tradecenter is making Carolina BBQ Pork Roast

in the crockpot and then she'll shred it and put it on hamburger buns topped with coleslaw.
For dessert, it's Carrot cake.

5. Roasted tomato soup and lowfat macaroni and cheese

The tomatoes are beautiful (making from fresh, which I am roasting). I may be back to post pictures later.

The macaroni and cheese is made with whole wheat macaroni and uses ricotta and cottage cheese to cut down on the fat.

And a big green salad, of course.

I have to go out for rustic bread.

7. Going over to visit a friend who has been under the weather and

will make a green pork chili with all the fixings and some sage cornbread.

That should help!

Cooked and charred...

13. I'm still fiddling with leftovers from the house guests I had over Christmas

I've got a gallon or so of beefstock from a pot roast I did, and mebbe two gallons of turkey stock from rendering the Christmas carcass, plus various other leftovers

I've mixed a fraction of the turkey stock with an equal amount of the pot roast stock, and plan to add some leftover grain (rice, barley, and quinoa) I had cooked in fish stock for a chowder, since I made somewhat too much for the chowder. I'll see what miscellaneous meat scraps from the fridge I can toss in with some carrot, onion, celery, and potato and try to work it up into a presentable soup. Tonight's meal is mainly tasting as the product develops: then I'll live a couple of days on soup

14. Shrimp Turkolimano

It's shrimp with tomatoes, feta, oregano, white wine, and parmesan. We're serving it by itself with bread, broccoli, and salad. But it's nice over rice, but the women in my life are trying to watch the carbs. Yeah, like bread isn't a carb.

15. Scrambled eggs and dry rye toast.

I can't knock it; it's the first solid food I've had for days. Good to be on the mend!

16. The best kind... One you don't have to cook.

Wife and I went out. Had quite the memorable meal.

17. Ham and bean soup.

The last of the Christmas ham is gone! The soup is delicious.
