Not quite sure. After seeing LS bacon and eggs I think I will make that if I have bacon in the fridge or freezer.

Any plans?

fOR STARTERS...
had caps on...hahahahah

Had a english muffin..egg fried with cheese and bacon that was pre-done.
Ummm...it was great..and the bacon done to a degree what I call.."Slap me Back in The Lips" doneness. LOL... ( Yeah peep! ...I know you like it that way too )

My mom and dad would fry a pound of bacon, and mom would just leave it wiggly.
We as kids asked,"Ma..could we have it crispy?" She said,"Oh! and then it will be all fried and melted to nothing!"
We would (Bro and I ) eat just a few strands of the dark meat strips.

Now I know why Ma cooked it that way. They were basically fat lovers.
And it Sure Does Taste Great!....

As far as for dinner..ha..DD brought over sausage and peppers; so it will be that.
Lunch..I have some Hard Eggs in the reefer...so I may just have sliced egg sandwitch on toast with mayo and black pepper coarse ground the way I like it.
Bread and Butter pickle chips on the side. Um!
Mommy will be home tomorrow.

Looks good Jimmy. Is that a slice of salami or pepperoni in there? We also like our S,P & O with red sauce.

Scrambled eggs (1/2 & ½, salt & pepper) added to red pepper and onion (sautéed in butte till soft) and cook to soft set, sliced tomato (seasoned with my AP seasoning mix, oregano and EVOO) and pan fried potatoes (potatoes, onion and red pepper seasoned with salt and ground pepper cooked in butter & oil till soft and browned).

I made chicken picatta with a saffron risotto.


The chicken was lightly crisp on the outside and juicy on the inside. ANd the risotto was wonderfully creamy, yet still slightly al dente. The double strength homemade chicken stock gave it plenty of flavor.

Wow! You surely can cook kid.

Everyone's dinners sound and look so great! Yum!

My day was just nuts so I didn't cook. We got burgers from Hardees with onion rings and a strawberry milkshake.

I asked Charlie and Cassie to help me come up with some ideas for meals and the one they came up with for today were cheesesteak sandwiches. I brought home some rolls for the sandwiches and they nixed them. They asked pretty please for me to make some. They didn't mind waiting an extra three or four hours. I made the bread with a French bread recipe but added an egg, some oil and sugar. The cheesesteak filling was chopped flatiron steak, green peppers, onion and mushrooms. There was also some bacon to put on the sandwiches along with mayo and choice of provolone or cheddar cheese sauce and jalapenos.

Pictures today are just snapshots of the ingredients. I was kind of tired and didn't take a picture of them assembled into a sandwich

Norm, those breads look so delicious and so does the filling.
The sandwiches had to be the best!
Jimmy's sausages and peppers look good too.
Peeps, you always make the nicest looking breakfasts.
Sage, I just always look at your dinner pics knowing I could never do that, but I enjoy the things you make. It's Gourmet Magazine stuff in my eyes lol

Aubrey.. I am glad to see you are eating and showing what you are eating. Nums!

Nancy, my day was nuts too, as it often is in the environment in which I work.
I had a ***horrors!!*** Big Mac and a sweet tea from McD's, then picked around on some cookies someone brought in.
Not my best day for eating as it was later in the day and I hate eating after 6.. ugh..
Not the best day period.. families of residents can be royal pains in the ass. Enough said.
