Thanks for starting the new week, Lee.
I've been napping
since I'm working all night.
I had scrambled eggs and sliced tomatoes for late lunch.
Jules is bringing something healthy for us to share tonight.

I spent the whole day emptying, moving, then refilling the wine fridge. Afterward, I just didn’t want to cook, so we went out. I seem to always have a reason to go out to eat.
We ordered the ribs & wings platter, shared it, and still took half of it home.

Hopefully we get time to sit down and eat

I tried a bit of an experiment...I took 1/2 of a chicken, brined it and then dredged it in some flour(s) and spices...followed by a spin on the rotisserie. Yum! Served it with some pasta and corn. We both enjoyed it and I'll need to make notes in order to repeat in the future!

Looks great to me! I have a couple of friends who had a "set it and forget it" rotisserie. They loved it!

It is easy to use...and better than cleaning the regular oven after cooking! I think this experiment may be our new favorite chicken!
I stopped at Biggby (this morning)and got a turkey,bacon and cheddar everything bagel.
I'll have that for dinner, reheated in the microwave.

Sounds like a Super Bird on a bagel...yum!
It was good.
Reheated the last of the rotisserie chicken and my delicious mashed turnip (I make it like mashed potatoes, but add caramelized chopped onion). Served with a microwaveable bag of fresh green beans (what a great invention!) dressed the way my friend's Italian grandmother dressed them - excellent EVOO, salt and lots of black pepper.

I put a frozen kielbasa on the hob and will add sauerkraut and potatoes later.
My neighbour Pat roasted a turkey over the weekend and brought me some.
I had that, then made some rice and steamed green beans.

Oops, forgot to add, I have enough turkey leftover to make my beloved turkey, lettuce and mayo sandwiches for lunch!
Lamb chops were on sale - I pan seared with olive oil, butter, garlic and rosemary. They were just "eh". Not much lamb-y flavor.
Greek salad was excellent and the bourbon barrel-aged Cabernet Sauvignon was perfect!
Now for pj's and a scary movie! Life is good!

Lee, I'm hoping to go to Walt Churchill's in Toldeo soon and get some lamb chops.
I'll only eat them if I can make them like Steve's Dad did.
Seared to almost burnt.
Yours look delicious to me.

Lee, was it American lamb? That is usually mild in flavor. Australian lamb has much more of the 'lamby' flavor.
I doubt that the origin was indicated on the package, but it must have been American, Kathy. Disappointing texture, too.

Today I'll be making a salmon filet and these..
This salmon filet is huge.
I had half lol
Leftovers for tomorrow, both that and the vegs- which were delicious
