Another month bites the dust

What's on the menu for everyone?

I thawed out my last little ball of Beer & Rye pizza dough, but don't know what I'll top it with.
Retired and having fun writing cookbooks, tasting wine and sharing recipes with all my friends.

I'm making a vietnamese dish that we liked; Grilled Lemongrass Prawns.

I bought some organic brown Basmati rice yesterday, so will try that. I don't usually like brown rice, but the brand I got claims to have 3g of fiber, making it healthier than white rice. I thought this was a bit strange considering all the other brown rices only have 2g of fiber.

Oh, and also having asparagus and snow peas with sesame oil.

Braised short ribs with melted tomatoes, onions, & mushrooms. Thinking orzo with ricotta & spinach, and fresh bread.

I just discovered that the air conditioner and the crockpot don't like each other. *****!!!

Actually I discovered that we can have air conditioning plus EITHER the crockpot or the 47"TV. Hmmmmmm. This is only temporary - we're just running on a 15 amp circuit now, once we are off the farm we'll have 30 amp in the RV parks or our generator.

It sure smells good in here. Now, what am I going to turn off so that I can bake the bread to go with dinner. I just might have to take it next door to the mobile home.

Well we dodged that bullet - baked the bread in my oven over in the mobile home.

Dinner was wonderful. Cousin Timmy and his wife Renae came over and shared dinner with us.

I have to mention - Bob and I are almost fanatical about "green" practices. We've spent so much time avoiding the excess use of paper, plastic, etc. - well I just tried crock pot liners today. They're great especially when the bowl of your crockpot won't fit in your sink. I will be using these a lot.
