Beef Stew in the pressure cooker. It smells soooooo good. Used wine and home-made tomatoes and home-made onion soup mix. Yum.

I made these Asian lettuce wraps. They were delicious and super easy. We picked up some butter lettuce at Costco this weekend that was so beautiful I had to buy it so it was perfect for the wraps. |

It is a big pot of chili kind of day here, so that is what is bubbling away on the stove. sueg enjoy the beach - it sounds like you have been on the go nonstop since hitting Australia.  |

I did not have a good day. Forget that.
I made spaghetti with meat sauce for dinner. I mixed 2 different kinds sauces and it turned this weird colour. The flavour was amazing. I used rose and 4 cheese. I made green beans and no one wanted salad.
I ate way more than a human should eat at one meal. I don't care. It was *that* good. I had extra ground beef and needed extra sauce so I opened up 2 jars of sauce. Best decision of the year so far.
There is enough left for DS and me to have for lunch tomorrow. SCORE 1 for Mom. (Grandpa liked it, too).

We had tostadas. We buy some lentil/red beans at Costco and put those on the tostadas along with Mexican cheese, onions, tomatoes, chopped lettuce and homemade salsa (and sour cream for me). It was good.

What a day. DH is over at DS's townhouse painting so I went to Costco to buy the sofa DS picked out last week. Get there and there is only the display sofa and it has some dings. They look on the computer and there are 2 at the other Costco about 10 miles away. Drive over there and the guy who was going to help me get it on the flatbed can't find it. Goes and looks on the computer and it is on *hold* for someone. I said *I didn't think you held stuff for people* and he replied *we usually don't*. I had already called the company that was supposed to deliver it to DS TH so I had to call them and cancel. The guy at Costco said they will be getting more in. He BETTER be right!! So that took up almost my entire morning and all I have to show for it is a box of Mini Wheats I picked up at Costco.  UGH. Dinner is the thighs I was going to fix last night but fixed vegetable beef soup instead because we wanted to take DS over to see the TH. He has only seen it twice ~ when he bought it in 2014 and when they did the home inspection. Now that it is clean it looks much better. The gal he bought it from put quality fixtures and appliances in. Front loading W/D, Jenn-Air fridge and a Miele dishwasher. The tenants were slobs so DS is replacing the upstairs carpets and putting laminate downstairs. Congratulations to your ds on moving into his townhouse. Woohoo. |

He's probably going to move in about 2 weeks from now. He's picked out the carpet, laminate and new baseboards so we have to see when they can install them. |
