You know what ran thru my mind as I read that Denise?? "Oh, da-- you, Denise" That sounds so good, but we're still on a very bland diet - a couple more days. Then all hell is going to break loose.
Enjoy...sigh

Oh Jean I'm sorry
I sure hope you two kick that flu once and for all.

I'm sorry Jean, but I MUST respond to Denise's query. You know...faithful and loyal and all that....
I sit on the deck as I type. The sun is warm on my face. My THIRD glass of zin sits at my right with a presentation of stuffed olives, cheese and crackers before me. AHHHHHH! Life is good!
Dinner? Well, I COULD have made the bouillabaisse with my shrimp, but I have opted for the easy way out...grilled corn, salad, and peel and eat shrimp. Even after SEVERAL glasses of wine, I think I can handle it! AHHHH!
(I am very sorry for the gloating. I couldn't help myself!)
Tomorrow, I will take the excess shrimp (bought 5 pounds), and make shrimp sushi parfaits (finally!) and shrimp rolls (using popcorn bread rolls)! YUMMMMMMMM!

We're thinking of going out for something since I just spent the afternoon helping my daughter get ready for a party tomorrow. Ron just loves when I'm cooking for an event. Besides going out for last minute stuff that I forgot, he is the official taster.
Hope you feel better soon, Jean. Sounds like you got hit pretty hard.

We are doing a flank steak with swiss chard and grilled fingerling potatoes.

Had the leftover piece of fish, but this time with the cilantro puréed in with the salsa instead of just hit or miss as a garnish, and it was just right. Have made a note on my copy of the recipe to put the cilantro in with the salsa instead of using it as a garnish.

I'm going to make the spinach and three cheese manicotti with buttermilk caesar salad from the first Cuisine for Two. Erin is right that many of the cookbooks recycle recipes from the magazines. But I appreciate the updates and that the recipes are scaled for two servings.
For this week's menu I tried my best to use my pantry and stuff in the freezer. The kids were over last weekend and giving me a hard time about the fridge being ridiculously stuffed with food and there are only two of us at home and we're both on diets.

Erin, I just made the 3 cheese and spinach manicotti on thursday, we love it. I made 12 of the rascals though so that we could have leftovers.
Tonight I threw together a chicken and dumpling meal with a bunch of stuff from the fridge. I am doing my best to be more economical. I am, however, very jealous of Daphne and her 5 pounds of shrimp!
