Hey, sylvie! If I don't have leeks, I just add more white onion or I add green onion. If I don't have fresh celery ribs, I use dried celery flakes. Sometimes I add chopped dried tomatoes. The taste is a bit different depending on ingredients, but still good. It might take about an hour for total cooking time. This is a good one to put on top of the wood stove to cook, if you have the capability.

Split pea soup, cranberry sauce and choc-chip pumpkin bread.

Sylvie--can you tell us more or give us a recipe for your yellow split-pea fritters?

Homemade pizza. Kids will love it.

tonight was going to be ribs

well that changed...LOL-LOL


so defrosting fish for Tony along with some rice and corn on the cob.

that will do fine for a fast change plan for dinner tonight.


me, I don't know. Not a fish lover. Probably some shrimp I will defrost and just add to a monster salad. Nicole likes all of the above so she will be easy to feed tonight.

I am in the mist of setting up for a huge yard sale. I also am watching two nephews this evening, they eat no normal food. I will order out for a cheese pizza for the kids. I made a huge pot of split pea and ham for the rest of us.

Tonight I am making a beef and barley soup. Never made it before but I have left over pot roast so it sounded like a good idea

Also have some super yummy rolls rising
