![]() Something with ground beef. I went outside to work in the yard. I got the corn thinned and it started to rain. I came inside. Then the sun came out, I went outside to do some more stuff. Then it hailed. I came back inside. My husband is deciding if he has enough time to mow the lawn before it rains again. The heck with it. I'm thawing a package of ground beef. I'll figure something out towards dinner time. I'm going to read today. Janet US |

Nights have been dipping down to the 40's. I'm going to make a pot of chili and some whole wheat rolls. Need to use up some flour. |

I'm thinking of defrosting some pork or lamb mince for spag bol tonight... it's long overdue and I should have the time to make it properly (according to how I like it) today. |

Spaghetti doesn't appeal today. Besides, I have a pan of cold polenta waiting to be fried tomorrow and be served with marinara sauce and salad. Maybe I'll do a pan of beef and bean enchiladas. Or if that seems like too much fuss, some sort of rice dish. Have a good dinner with your spaghetti. Janet US |

Or if that >seems like too much fuss, some sort of rice dish. I like the idea of beef and bean enchiladas. This is another area of food I haven't ventured into for no particular reason. I might start looking into some recipes and rounding up ingredients. >Have a good dinner with your spaghetti. Thanks, it will be slowly cooked throughout the course of the day. I'd better go get the mince out now... |

Flour mix of strong white, organic WW (15% protein) and some rye. I also made 3x300g tin loaves of cracked grain bread and I'll be eating that with salad for supper. I soaked a cracked multi-grain mix in boiling water and then left it in the fridge for a few days to soften the grains. The trouble is, the grains on the surface have hardened during the bake:-( Still, the texture and flavour are superb. Graham |

I had a tall Sprite Zero with Crystal Palace... she had a squat dark Belize rum and Coke with lime... if not for she I'da had lottsa sweet onions on my hero. I love that gal with the big low slung headlights in the Liberty Mutual Insurance ad... wish I knew her name so I could do some research. I once owned a '59 Chrysler Imperial with headlights like hers, check out those twin beauties: http://www.hotrod.com/cars/featured/...sler-imperial/ http://image.cdn.ispot.tv/ad/79qc/li...rd-large-5.jpg |
