What's for dinner?

If you were next door I'd share pot pie!!

It's why I cooked one for DD -- she's sub teaching at elementary school this winter Gym class this week. Figured she would welcome hot & ready!

i popped open a can of clam chowder. it's not something i eat very often but it can be a welcome change once a month or so.

If I were next door I'd love it!

Not terribly hungry - could use sleep more than food right now. Decided that if I do eat anything later it will likely be a sweet potato. DH is fixing himself a snack plate - likely kippers or smoked oysters with some crackers, cheese, olives and pickled okra (or something similar). He loves those kinds of meals.

I'm feeling poor lately. SS isn't covering our purchases, which are out of control.

I used to do alot of Mystery Shopping back in 2018, 10 and early 20. It made ends meet for me, since I was delaying my SS until age 67.

I did two Panda express shops today, and the two meals I ordered (and get reimbursed for) are for dinner. Kroger shops tomorrow.

They are alot more high tech than even a few years ago. App for this, website for that.

I prefer to enter things on my laptop, but I found yesterday that I had to enter photos from an app from my phone. Yes, they can teach an old dog new tricks.

Chickens are working overtime so - ham, onion and cheese frittata.

we have a small tradition now of having a snack when Mom gets home from her caretaking before she grabs a shower. most often crackers and cheese cubes and i get a few bites of those with some hot sauce because much of the rest of the time i'm not doing too much with spices these days.

then i decided it was a day to have a bit more of a snack with some butter pecan ice cream, extra cashews and some chocolate sauce.

it was a long busy day for me and i'm irked about someone not returning my phone call (not anyone i have to deal with often but it still would be nice if they'd call back so i can get that off my TTD list).

yes, it doesn't take much of an excuse for me to have dessert first...

and then knowing that Mom has had a long day too we both agreed that a nap is quite ok even if it means we'll likely both stay up later tonight. tomorrow is a day of nice enough weather we won't be worried about it and can enjoy whatever we might get up to.

in the meantime now that i'm awake we have some other more serious eats ready to go if i want some later or perhaps i'll just wait until i get up tomorrow. i am glad to have such choices and feel spoiled once in a while and i think that is quite ok considering how busy things can get at other times of the seasons... contentment is a good thing...

Yesterday I used the last of a turkey breast up. Clear from frig. Made turkey & dumplings . Fed DD & DS....so, much of it was eaten. Now I only have 2 meals of it to consume. This morn, the carcass was in a pot to make broth & scraps for the 9 feral cats that live here. Merry Christmas to them
