monavano Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 My love of corn on the cob and a geographical sense of optimism spurred me on to buy sweet white corn from a NJ farmers market stand today. Up north, the corn's sweet, plump and juicy. I'm glad I got six to savor and linger over. With remnants in my teeth, I say, good-bye 'til next year, my sweet little bundle of kernals.

mame11 Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I am eating an ad-libbed riff on my mom's very 1950's chicken noodle soup recipe. Her recipe requires the spice ball from a cup-of-soup package but I bought the wrong kind at the store so there went the salt, err, I mean spices. So, I sauteed a very small onion sliced thinly and a carrot in a bit of canola oil, added "free-range organic" premade chicken stock and a can of good ol' campbell's tomato soup with a healthy dose of sirachha. once it was all boiling and the veggies were soft I threw in a generous amount of egg noodles. Patience... eating. My sinuses feel better all ready. (also had a good old fashion grilled cheese sandwich with american cheese and butter... comfort foods are us today) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choirgirl21 Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 Shame on me: I am eating a frozen, microwaved: Amy's Brown Rice and Vegetable Bowl. Husband is out-ot-town, don't feel like cooking. I may follow this up later this evening with an Amy's frozen Pesto Pizza. Yes, it's that kind of a day. I second the not beating yourself up. I consider the Amy's organic mac 'n cheese an appropriate addition to any gourmet meal that includes steak, assuming the mac 'n cheese has at least been finished in the oven so it's nice and brown on top. No longer eating, but I had to share b/c I know there are some who will appreciate - tonight was (finally) Zuni roast chicken for the first time. I was worried b/c my bird was a little big, but figured it would be okay since it was Polyface. It lived up to the hype! Turnips roasted in the pan and leftover greens with bacon and a glass of cab finished off hte meal. Yum. Haven't actually put the food away yet, thinking I might go grab a nibble or two...

Jeff White Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 A horny hexapalegic octopus? Good try. Sciurus carolinensis or eastern gray squirrel simply rolled in seasoned flour then pan fried.
