Well, I'm cooking with no recipe in mind, just making it up as I go along.  I took a pound of best quality all-natural, no antibiotics, extra lean, ground beef, sauteed it with a tablespoon of Pataks mild curry paste, onions, garlic and freshly grated ginger added some diced red peppers, a diced fresh tomato, 4 finely chopped Chinese eggplants (they cook down and make the sauce).  I was going to add zucchini but I think I'll add some okra (I but it frozen) at the end instead.  I'm going to cook some extra aged basmati rice (especially nice nutty flavour)  to have with it tonight but I made lots so I'll mix leftover rice with the beef mixture and maybe some corn and bake it like a casserole for during the week.   It may evolve a bit differently if I find anything else that needs to be used up.

Fresh organic raspberries with lime sherbert for dessert I'm thinking.  I buy the lime sherbert but what I really like to do is scrub a fresh lime and sprinkle finely grated lime zest on top. 

I wish I could cook like I used to without worrying about renal taboos. 

I'll be right over!

Twirl,

We used the left-over turkey to make green chili enchiladas! Much better than eating turkey for breakfast, turkey for lunch, and turkey for dinner... I also like to make turkey and noodle soup.

We are having mystery dinner tonight. Katie, one of the "roomates", is making dinner. Don't know what the heck it is! Hope it is good.

My daughter went to see the Nutcracker tonight with her grandmother, so I took my son out for pizza.  I had 4 pieces.  Not the healthiest choice, but when I saw it, it was the first time I have been hungry in over a month and the most I have eaten in a long time.  My son even said, "Wow, you ate Daddy!"

Not hungry again tonight  :(
They were asking about my albumin level being funky and were wondering if I was eating.  Seems I am only good for one light meal a day.  I crave fruit.

Green onion, parmesan and cream cheese omelet with Persian flatbread.  Salad with homemade balsamic vinaigrette.  No dessert.

Big lunch out with three of my girlfriends tomorrow.  Haven't yet decided where.

It's a big week!  I am going out to lunch on Thursday with a bunch of women friends from work. 

The traditional started in 2004 when my students gave me a gift certificate for a nice restaurant/martini bar in Williamsburg for my 50th birthday (this is one perk of having grad students as opposed to 5th graders).  I decided it would be fun to share it with friends, so I volunteered to buy  the martinis as a way to convince them that it would be okay to take one afternoon off from work for FUN.  We went for lunch, I drank my first martinis, and we laughed and laughed and laughed.  Actually I drank one martini too many... I was afraid that might happen, so I had rented a car and a driver!  After lunch the driver took us to a bridal shop where my friend Debbie had an appointment to pick out a wedding veil to go with her dress.  I'm not kidding.  Try to imagine five women, ranging in age from 35 to 60, trying on wedding veils for an hour.  Actually, since I eloped, it was my first time ever to try on a wedding veil.

The group has grown to 11.  The owner of the martini bar went to jail for embezzlement, so that place is out.  We're going to a French restaurant instead.

Sounds superbe.   I'm still chuckling over the wedding veil.  And the elopement.  I had 5 people at my wedding, including us and we went in the wrong door at City Hall so had to run the gauntlet of hookers and pimps and the like who were there for court cases. 

Shame about the embezzlement but I'm sure you'll all have fun at the French restaurant.  Bon appétit.

I took my girlfriend out for dinner for her birthday last night.  I had a salad to start with, she had lobster/shrimp bisque.  Then we each had a broiled fillet of red snapper with lemon thyme butter, steamed baby carrots, green beans and baby beets and a "galette"  (like a small flat cake) of mashed potatoes that were pressed into black sesame seeds and lightly pan fried till crisp on each side.
For dessert we shared a Tiramisu and had espresso macciatos as well.   I skipped lunch yesterday and breakfast today to do it.  Was well worth it.

I haven't got a clue for dinner.  I haven't gone shopping, so it looks like Mother Hubbard's cupboard around here.  Bleah.
