Fran, the liver sounds good. I love beef heart sliced cold with a touch of vinegar as well.
Good healthy foods!
Last night I didn't have anything out and since I wanted to use up some of the tomatoes left in the garden, I made the fresh tomato sauce with basil that I served over penne with broccoli together with a lovely baby spinach, mushroom, cucumber, pumpkin seed, and dried cranberry salad with sweet onion dressing. Was quite lovely.

That sounds good. Curry is good with cauliflower.

You go to work at 3 in the morning! I would never be able to do that.

But I do finish work between 1am-2am
Fran, I found those pork chops and bought them so tonight is the night to experiment with them. I already had the apple cider. BTW, 4 large chops was $2.18. I feel so bad for pig farmers.
What else besides the cider do you put in them and how do you cook them - oven or stove top and for how long?

Oh, good for you!! I do stove top, in a large pan that you can cover. I always season with a little tenderiser, a lot of freshly ground black pepper and some ground garlic, and then brown both sides in butter. Then add any herbs or whatnot, and the liquid, turn the heat down to med low, cover and simmer until the chops are done to your liking. Depending on the thickness of the chops, I find that can be as little as 12 minutes or as much as 20. It's a method I like a lot because it can be varied a lot.
For these chops, I've used onion and mushrooms, sauteed and then set aside while I brown the meat. When the second side is pretty much done, I add some chopped fresh sage right on top of the meat, drape the onions and mushrooms on top of that, add a half bottle of cider, and let them do. When the chops are done, you'll want to reduce the liquid, and I always do the touch of cream as well -- can't help it, it just makes the sauce nicer!
Bon appetit!
I have a serious hankering for ham, and hope I'll be able to do that tonight. Trouble is I've discovered a particular ham, that I can only get at one grocer -- probably my favourite one, but the last couple of times I've looked they haven't had them.
I'm having roast chicken, boiled potatoes, yorkshire pudding with sweetcorn, peas and gravy.
I had a custard slice for afters but it was telling me to have it now so i did what i was told

Soup for me tonight, I am taking all the left-overs from dinner lastnight, chicken, potato's, carrots, and green beans. Throughing them all in the crock-pot with a couple of cups of chicken stock, so sage, onion, and rosemary and there you go....Supper's around five for anyone who wants to join me.
im having fish in a butter sauce with stir fried veggies yummmmy
Something I don't have to cook.
Figured since I had to turn the furnace on this morning for the first time this fall, it would be a good night to have chili. I then disocovered that a pot of chili simmering on the stove will actually get my DD home for supper!
Custard slice! with a white icing top Susan? or a chocolate top? either way I'm happy!
I had chicken tenderloins, fat wedges and a hefty amount of salad last night. I'm going to take some salad leaves and fresh tomatos to work tonight and grill up a chicken breast and have that for my tea! YUM!

Susan, I'm glad you do as you are told. Besides, it's always better to eat the dessert first in case you don't have any room later.
When I was in my teens, my mom was trying to help me gain a bit of weight so everyday for lunch she made me up a doughnut, with a scoop of ice cream on top and then covered it with hot fudge. MMmmmmmm. I never did gain any weight though.
I'm making chilli too... It's been cool in the evenings so I wanted some chilli! It's cooking right now... I wish it would hurry up! I'm hungry!
