I'm doing an old Weight Watchers version of Country Captain. Serving it
with rice and a spinach salad.

Tomorrow night is Salisbury Steak.. and the kidlet has requested mac and
cheese. I have some fresh asparagus to use up also, as well as some
zucchini which I was thinking of cutting into matchsticks and doing up
with some carrot matchsticks.

I hear cooler weather is heading our way....but until then I'm still in
shorts and the windows open

Would you be able to post this sometime? Country Captain is one of my
all time favorite dishes. I have some recipes I use, but I doubt they
are Weight Watcher friendly. I use one by Edna Lewis, and the other
one is from a long time ago....

Heh! You'll get yours soon enough... That cold front is supposed to be
nation wide.

It was in the 70's here yesterday.

It will be below 30 tonight. The Border Collie is sleeping inside! I'm
just glad the rain dried up. I hate attempting to drive in ice
storms......

Especially in Texas.

Nobody here knows how to drive on ice! I spent some years up in the
mountains in California, and also up near Evergreen Colorado. I think I
still have those weed chains in my truck. ;-)
