Damn, my chicken noodle soup came out good!

Sauteed the bones and some onions in butter tossed some carrots and celery in sauteed a little longer. Added water and bay leaves, reduced for about four hours. Strained it. Added more fresh carrots, celery, and onions, some light salt, pepper, and thyme, and two things of chicken broth, simmered for 30 minutes, added some egg noodles and simmered for about 10 minutes longer.

I make it more or less the same way every time, and it's always good, the only difference was I threw away the neck because I wasn't originally planning making soup, also I didn't make stock in advance and remove fat from the top.

No pictures, because it was just soup, but I'm sitting here salavating for soup for dinner tonight.

Deep fried spicy pork chops, with white gravy. red beans and rice (leftover from the other night) shellie beans.

Butter Chicken Bites with Lemon Broccoli...you can search with "Lemon Asparagus" but the family likes broccoli better.

Sister made home made sour dough bread dough, and made biscuits out of it instead of a loaf bread

Mighty fine!

Also had baked chicken thighs and salad.

Sorry, no pics.

Biscuits n' gravy.

Last night we had Tasso ham with green peppers, onions, and gravy over grits. It was excellent.

Tonight is bacon and eggs. I may go all out and make some pancakes, too. I love breakfast for supper.

Biscuits and gravy......MMMmmmmmm!!

...............Reminds me so much of SOS/ S--- On a Shingle/ Chipped Beef............. Don"t care what you call it but I liked it then and I still like it on a slice of fresh toast with a over easy egg on top with a splash or two of Tobasco sauce...YUM YUM in my tummy. ......................drill sgt.

Bet it was superb.

Thanks for posting. Been thinking about you and wondering how you have been.

Please post more photos for us!

i had samkyupsal. basically, slices of grilled pork belly wrapped in crisp, cold red leaf lettuce with rice and ssamjang paste (soybean paste, chili soy bean paste, minced garlic, sugar, ground sesame seeds, sesame oil, diced scallions). did i mention the pound of grilled pork belly?

Today I made my "famous" canned stew. Into a 2-qt saucepan I emptied a 12-oz can of Hereford Roast Beef and Gravy, broke up the meat chunks, added small cans of whole kernal corn and cut green beans (both drained), and heated it all up. It makes a very tasty dish, big enough for 2 meals.

I've tried several brands of canned beef (none of which currently are stocked in my area supermarkets any more, for several years), but decided to try ordering the Hereford brand from the web. It is produced in Brazil, and is far and away more tasty than either Hormel or Armour. It would make fantastic hot beef sandwiches! It's not cheap, but it's definitely worth it. I know we're supposed to "Buy American", but the improvement in quality from this Brazil product will be an exception for me. I think I ordered it from Amazon (about $9.50 a can) but I see Kroger supposedly has it at about half that price.

Add a take-and-bake baguette from Aldi's and it's a great meal!

Curious... ever try this stuff? If you're not a COSTCO member it can still be ordered mail order + 5% which is usually much cheaper than Amazon.

I have never seen that in Costco. What is it? Consistency? Roast beef slices? Spam-like substance?
