Confessions of a Cereal Eater

[Rubysugar]

Yep, I have been scarce recently. Pokin' my head in just on occasion. One of these folks who are all mum when they are "being bad". Not that I feel bad about it or even guilty, I am just ready to get back at it. I didn't have any crisis to blame it on, more like I was just burnt out on having to focus on it so much. And prepare all the seperate meals. Anyway, I am not looking for advice or support or an okay from anyone, just wanted to pop on and say "Hey!" to my friends and "Welcome" to the new faces. I did get a chance to do a little catch-up reading and man, you guys have had some doozy threads! Nice to see everyone still kickin'!! Keeps things hoppin!

I am up 6 lbs and had my pre-baby jeans start to tighten up in an uncomfortable way. So here we are.

Now... What's everyone making for dinner tomorrow? And can we see more belly buttons?? MEOW!! Grrrr Baby!

Dinner- mixed salad greens and tomato, cucumber olive oil and lemon juice, Grilled Rib steak and grilled asparagus. I grill using brickets, tasted better than gas to me.

Start back tomorow. Scramble some eggs in butter with a side of bacon for breakfast.

Dinner tomorrow is tilapia filets baked in the oven with melted butter mixed with Old Bay seasoning over them. Probably radishes boiled until soft and then mashed with butter (looks and tastes just like mashed baby redskin taters) for the side. Maybe a salad if DH is super-hungry when he gets out of work.

Nice to see you MommaGlass!
Dinner tonight will probably be pork shank (I think that's what it's called... stinco in Italian) with wild mushrooms. Spinach. Jelly and cream.

Re: Confessions of a Cereal Eater

Awwww! Thanks for the warm welcome back.

Great ideas for dinner, guys! Thanks!
I picked up a big bag of radishes, that sounds like a good recipe!! I also snagged some portobellas on sale and will saute those with butter and garlic and a pinch of marjoram. *drool* I tell ya, it's been 3 months since I was siked up over food in general. Ever since the move in July.
It's nice to be back!!

Dinner tonight is a roast inspired by Chef Kevin. I stole his recipe from the Crockpot Thread in "Recipe Requests".

Onions
Roast (I used Rump Roast)
Montreal Steak Seasoning
Fresh Green Beans.

I put the onions on the bottom of the pot, then the meat, the the greenbeans, and a dash of seasoning. I'll let you know how it turns out.

and anything else I find inspiring to go along with it.

Everytime I read the title of this post I keep thinking,
Bacon and Eggs.......the Breakfast of Champions.

[Rubysugar]

Re: Confessions of a Cereal Eater

*drooool* Roasts in abundance!! Nice!!
And 2big, I would never be so cruel as to describe cereal... it would break me!!

You guys rock!!

Lisa, I'd love to see that egg drop recipe!
Today has gone well and clean, though at this point I am gnawing the edge of my keyboard with cravings. *gulps her water like a good Atkinseer*

Re: Confessions of a Cereal Eater

hey are you going to reopen your journal so everybody could come say happy birthday? if not Happy Birthday even if it is late in the dsay

[Rubysugar]

Re: Confessions of a Cereal Eater

Thanks so much for the birthday wishes!! I forgot that the journal was closed. I'll have to give a holler to Jimmie and get it opened again. Time to start recoriding my kitchen experiments again anyway. Otherwise I lose the recipe or forget that it's an option, like the Cha Cha Chicken Chowder. Did you make it yet? Did ya like it? I had a great birthday, lots of phone calls from distant family and I made legal peanut butter cookies for myself. Of course I made illegal chocolate no bake ones for DH. I always feel guilty if he comes home and smells I've been baking and then finds out that it's all my food. LOL Gotta give the guy a break!
Thanks for remembering 2Big!
