What's on the menu for everyone today??
We're having Roy's ribs and kraut. Divided the whole shebang up and I'll get a rib/sauerkraut pizza and a rib/sauerkraut/pasta dish for our 3 meals from it all.
What a bust of a day except for one stop we made in Beaumont yesterday! No Costco, the restaurant I wanted to go to Suga's Southern Cuisine & Jazz Bar was closed! Ended up going to a fried fish dive and ate more fried Calamari for me, stuffed mushrooms for Roy and the Caesars we had hadn't been within a mile of an anchovy!!
I'm just tired of deep fried food - so I'm really switching gears with the goodies I still have in the freezer (oysters, alligator, and crab). Should be fun and interesting.
But, the fun part of the trip was a stop at the local Kroger's! My God, I have never seen a store with more goodies and wonders!! Beats out Whole Foods, T.J.'s, etc. I swear the spice aisle was the entire length of a normal grocery aisle. They had everything under the sun.
The Asian, Mexican, etc. aisles were not just little sections, they went on forever!!! We are certainly stopping back on our way back to the West coast - if we get near Beaumont!! Might even make another trip while here!

Retired and having fun writing cookbooks, tasting wine and sharing recipes with all my friends.
