It's going to fire roasted tomato soup here. I'm
anxious to see if it's going to be better than my
favorite whole tomato recipe blended with a stick
blender after simmering. Ingredients are the same,
with the tomatoes being the only difference and
there's just enough heavy cream left to make it
super rich.

I picked up some fried chicken. I've been dealing with internet

the line at the main junction box which is located well behind my house.
They ran a new line.

You have more ambition and appetite than I have.
Had a snack at about 3 and now not hungry enough to cook.
With my snack was a bourbon as a tribute to a friend that passed away 13
years ago today. Long story there.
I'm going to make a salad and have some crackers and cheese with it.

Here's dinner. Sorry, no picture but it was very good!
MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.05
Title: Xxcarol's Mediterranean Chicken Tomato soup
Categories: Xxcarol, Low cholest, Soups/stews
Yield: 10 Servings
16 oz Can diced tomatoes
28 oz Can Tomato Puree
16 oz Can Corn
16 oz Can Cannellini beans
16 oz Can red kidney beans
32 oz Chicken broth
1 tb Dried basil
1/2 tb Dried thyme
1 ts Cumin
The soup is quite good, but to me, no great distinction in
flavor from regular canned whole tomatoes that are used to
make the 'standard' homemade tomato soup. It certainly
won't go to waste.

If I had some leftover ham I would likely mince it up with some pickles
and mayo and make my favourite sandwiches, ham and pickle salad.

If you had a lot of leftover ham, you might find more than one way
to use it.

True, but that would be at or near the top of my list. I have never
cooked a ham. There are two things close to it. A few times we have
fried up ham steaks and my wife does a glazed peameal a couple times a
year. She did one for Easter this year. It turns out similar to ham but
a heck of a lot better.

Talked to her yesterday and now have the dates to visit soon. I go
once or twice a year, usually at the shore home. Long drive so
usually 7 to 10 days stay. Sometimes I extend it and go up to CT and
visit old friends there too.

was about; a lifelong friendship between two people who
both married someone else.
What? Why are you equating Ed's decades long friendship with a woman
with an Alan Alda movie?

What's coming out of your kitchen this Thursday evening? Sandwiches, full meal prep, grilling, or finishing off

It's going to fire roasted tomato soup here. I'm
anxious to see if it's going to be better than my
favorite whole tomato recipe blended with a stick
blender after simmering. Ingredients are the same,
with the tomatoes being the only difference and
there's just enough heavy cream left to make it
super rich.
You have more ambition and appetite than I have.
Had a snack at about 3 and now not hungry enough to cook.
With my snack was a bourbon as a tribute to a friend that
passed away 13 years ago today. Long story there.
I'm going to make a salad and have some crackers and
cheese with it.
Maybe a sandwich later?
About 8PM I take a couple of pills and will have some ice
cream.
Rare I have a drink in the afternoon but today was special.
Bill was a good friend but I was really closer to his wife
Joan that remains my best friend. We go back about 47
years. I texted her this morning, of course.
Sheldon would never understand our friendship. I'll be
spending a week with her again soon. It will be on the
beach at Ocean City NJ.

Sheldon rarely understood anything. I think it's great you are
still friends with her all these years later.
Jill
Talked to her yesterday and now have the dates to visit soon. I
go once or twice a year, usually at the shore home. Long drive so
usually 7 to 10 days stay. Sometimes I extend it and go up to CT
and visit old friends there too.
Sounds like the Alan Alda movie 9except theirs involved sex too).
Meeting once a year at a retreat vacation rental.
Not familiar with the movie.
When I was living in PA, I'd see here at least once a week. After
moving to CT, every few months. Now, 1200 miles, a couple of times a
year.
I'm in touch with her other ways too. Letters, phone, text. She
lost a son three years ago. She appreciated a short text I sent her.
I've not missed a day since.
True, but that would be at or near the top of my list. I have never
cooked a ham. There are two things close to it. A few times we have
fried up ham steaks and my wife does a glazed peameal a couple times a
year. She did one for Easter this year. It turns out similar to ham but
a heck of a lot better. Where it differs is that it tends to be a lot
smaller and less leftovers, and that is a shame because that stuff is as
good cold as it is hot.
