Lunch was a deconstructed chicken salad sandwich: two slices multigrain bread spread with mayonnaise. One piece was topped with onion sliced paper thing and celery thinly sliced on the bias. Sliced leftover grilled chicken breast, a couple leaves of lettuce, and the other mayo'd slice of bread. A nice, light lunch to set me up for mowing. Dinner will be burgers on pretzel buns. Yesterday I roasted a turkey, which will provide leftovers this week. Cindy Hamilton |

Oh yeah! They changed how I define "sandwich"!Â*:-) And the Banana Bread I made is EXCELLENT!! Could haver used the two extra way overripe bananas I chose not to put in, but other than that! Oh and I slipped in an extra YUM by presoaking a bunch of raisins in some cooking wine I keep atop the fridge and YUM-O! Damn I'm still a decent baker! :-) John Kuthe... |

Raisins soaked in cheap, salted wine = Extra Yum? <gag> Soaked in spiced rum is how you'd do it. |

I was not raised in a household where wine was ever on the table thus I have no palate for it. It A-L-L tastes like vinegar to me. Two or three months ago I was my neighbors house for a dinner of salmon and roasted cauliflower (remember, we talked about roasted cauliflower). She served a white wine that she really enjoyed but to me I had the distinct impression I was drinking Heinz vinegar that had a smidge of apple juice added to it. The appeal of wine is lost on me and I don't cook with it either. |

Yesterday I roasted a turkey, >which will provide leftovers this week. > >Cindy Hamilton THE wife went for a bike ride with her girlfriend, only 12 miles as her girlfriend has a bad back and that was about her limit. Afterwards they did lunch at Paneras; chicken avocado panini. Meamwhile I sharpened mower blades and then mowed the back field and the path through the woods. After all that I diced some redskin spuds to saute, dinner will be a dozen egg potato omelet, enough for two days. Spuds are now golden brown and waiting for beaten eggs, already beaten in a bowl and in the fridge. Was 87ºF outside while I was removing branches from all those fallen trees, halfway though a yellow jacket stung my hand, that was the end of sawing limbs... luckily I'm not allergic to bee stings, hurt for awhile but no swelling, so continued mowing. It's much better to do that physical labor in the woods in cold weather, no insects... in warm weather it's one of the major benefits of a tractor with an air conditioned cab. Oh, my mower found two more boulders, dug them up and filled the holes with topsoil. I did more than my share of work today. Pretty soon I'll just have the tree trunks to deal with, I'm sure my next door neighbor will slice them up with a chainsaw for his family's outside firepit, in cold weather they like to eat outdoors with a roaring fire. They have a huge family, he has a brother and two sisters, she has seven bothers and sisters. With all the kids, cousins, etc, they can fill a stadium. We are always invited to their cookouts and sometimes we accept, they are all scotch drinkers so that's what we bring. They always appreciate when I volunteer to man the grill. |

Marshmallows and maybe hotdogs is about my limit in outdoor eating in cold weather. |
