AKathy's "What's For Dinner?" 02/22

Good evening
Our weather has been lovely today. We got up to 12C and it has been sunny as well. I went for my walk after lunch just wearing a heavy sweater, no coat. The temperatures are meant to stay this high for a few more days, but we’re going to get a bit of rain. Most of the snow out there has now melted, so walking is much more pleasant and safer.

We went to a different supermarket today. After my visit to the Turkish supermarket on Thursday, I was telling DH how their butcher had lots of different meat to our regular store, including lamb, but I didn’t buy it because he’s away from tomorrow for most of the week. Well, he decided he’d do lamb tonight, so I introduced him to the Turkish shop. Because we were there, we went to the regular German supermarket across the road - it’s the same brand as our normal one, but quite different in set out and products. It was OK, because we didn’t need much.
Dinner is braised lamb shanks with crushed potatoes.

Happy birthday to Emma. I hope you all enjoy your dinner out.
Good vibes going out to those who need them
Enjoy your weekend!

Happy birthday to the Pea Kids!

Lazy day here! Started off with mimosas! Heading out to dinner and a magic show tonight. I actually organized this event (volunteer recognition for my organization) before I retired at Christmas and tonight I get to attend as a guest. I told my executive director she’ll probably have to hold me down from getting up and helping lol

Sun is shining so I’ll probably go for a walk this afternoon. Temps will be -2C so a lovely day.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Well we’re back at the hospital with my mom. Paramedics brought her in this morning. Same issues so they are going to keep her for a couple of days. I really wish they could figure out what’s going on with her.

Happy birthday to the Pea kids.

No clue what dinner will be tonight. Maybe chicken chili.

Ok I have done my share of starting unpolitical threads except for the good old days one and I now challenge you to come up with fun threads to laugh, cry or grin. Game on!

DH and I did a grocery run to WalMart this morning. Home now and groceries are put away.

The sun is shining and it -4C. Walking outside is still a challenge because the sidewalks are a mess and you have to walk on the streets. Our new treadmill is great for these kind of days. I will walk on it this afternoon.

Supper will be chicken fajitas.

I am at a big party how am I the only one dancing. It’s amazing!

scrappintoee this is the recipe I used. I just used regular paprika instead of the smoked pap. I read in the reviews that the smoked was too strong. It was delish!

Happy birthday to Emma! It is an absolutely gorgeous day today and I'm just soaking up the sunshine! Went for a long hike and feel almost human! I'm making homemade ravioli for dinner - we'll see how that goes! My daughter's coming up to help, so if it turns into boiling some linguine, oh well! Take care all!

Well 4 hours later we're home. We bought a new French Door with the extra slide-out between the top doors and the freezer. Very limited options if you don't want water/ice on the outside. Delivery on Wednesday so we'll be buying lots of ice between now and then. We have 3 coolers and borrowed 3 more. Of course, everything was put in helter skelter so now I need to rearrange so I can find stuff. Not what I planned for today. We did buy the 6 year warranty for $300. If you never need it, they give you a $150 credit back.

Happy weekend, friends!

DH made us some sausage gravy and biscuits for breakfast, and then we went to our local used bookstore and Costco. Came home to a box of scrappy goodies from ACOT.

Had an early dinner of steak, mushrooms, broccoli, and sweet potatoes. Laundry is almost done and the Caps won.

I'm going to try to work on my cross-stitch project a bit tonight too, but it may just be sorting thread. We'll see.
