I have a young chicken about 3# that will either go on the grill or be baked in the oven. Still not sure.

I got up early and made a home made chicken stock out of a couple of rotisserie chickens. I then made some chile verde. I did it for the first time and am liking the initial outcome. I am going to let it simmer for a few hours before I give it the taste test and make some mods then. The house smells incredible. I was surprised to see how easy it is to make. I think I will serve it on corn tortillas with some guacamole and sour cream. Pics to follow.

If time and circumstance allow toast those corn tortillas over an open fire.Doing that brings out that toasted corn, nutty flavor. I never much cared for corn tortillas until my Mexican co-workers set me straight.

I was going to toast them on dry cast iron. I will have to try it. Thanks

Not sure yet what's going to be on the menu. At hand I have a summer & most of a fall's worth of recipes (mostly from you guys) that have accumulated. Yes, I should get with the times and save them to my laptop but putting a 'puter in my kitchen would be a death sentence! Anyhow, when DW was looking for a recipe and dozens fell from the binder, I got the "Isn't it about time you file this s_ _ t!" So here I be.

early plans for dinner are meatloaf, taters some how probably mashed, gravy, spinach, steamed carrots or baked sweet tater and acorn squash mash (I may save that for chicken tomorrow).

I baked chocolate chocolate chip muffins this morning, they are yummy!!

We went to a cafe for lunch. The boys had lasagna and DW and I had fish & chips. We followed this with white chocolate & strawberry muffins.

My plan is fried pork chops, mashed sweet potatoes and buttered peas...but after working in the yard for a couple of hours and doing a 3 mile walk I'm kind of bushed. I'm thinking it might be burgers from the diner...
Still too early to tell.

Oh those muffins look wonderful my daughter would be in heaven!!! Do you have a recipe?? I was actually think of making either carrot cake muffins or and apple crumble today.

As far as dinner I am either thinking of Chinese garlic fried chicken....or something Hawaiian. I'd better decide soon because I still need to pull the meat out of the freezer!!

I'm making braised pork chops with onions and apples, spatzle, and sauteed green beans. Brownies or chocolate/peanut-butter ice cream for dessert. Or maybe brownies crumbled over chocolate/peanut-butter ice cream for dessert! :wink:

Me and DW traded places in the kitchen today so I could clean out the gutters, cut the grass and mulch all the leaves...a 5 hour project. My butt was dragging when I came into the house, only to be met by the smell of one of my favorite comfort foods, roasted chicken. She did a fine job as usual. (I ate both legs and thighs...urp!)
