Been up most of the night with aches and pains. I don't think I will be cooking tonight.

Baked till crumbs brown and eggplant is tender.

Then topped with sauce, grated Parmigiano Reggiano, Pecorino Romano and mozzarella cheeses.

Baked till cheese is melted and slightly browned.

Chinese BBQ pork steaks, marinated for 2 days, purchased egg rolls with hot mustard, and I pickled what was left of the cucumber from making the raita with rice vinegar since I figured we'd need something to cut the sweet/fattiness of the pork.

I made a mess of some dumplings last night. I had a package of beautiful dumpling wrappers in the freezer, but it guess they hed been there too long. When they thawed, 5hey were all dry and cracking, and crumbled when I tried to pleat them.

So.......I used a package of wonton wraps, which I hadn't realized were vegan. No egg in the pasta! Dried out faster then I could fill them. They were square, so I couldn't pleat them the right way, I just pulled the corners up into little purses. They weren't pretty, but it worked. I'll be more careful not to buy vegan again, I didn't like the texture as much after steaming.
I loved the filling, though. It was from a New York Times recipe with pork, lots of ginger, scallions, garlic, Napa cabbage, etc. Next time I'll use more cabbage however. They were ugly, but tasty! Served with 4 dipping sauces.

I've had that happen. Realized they've got to be tightly wrapped in plastic wrap (even if never opened) or vacu sealed, can't leave any air touching them.

A 1 pot meal, chicken glazed with honey mustard, veges of Brussel sprouts, pears and onions. The seemingly never ending stalk of Brussel sprouts is almost empty, just a few sprouts left that are destined for a vegetarian savory pie.
