Re: (...)
What's on the menu for everyone today??
I cooked up two racks of ribs (2 different ways) yesterday, so will have one of them today with some smashed (home-grown
) tatoes and b. sprouts.
Our later snack....sigh, guess I'll do something to finish up our foie gras.
(Blane & C.A. have me spoiled now, so I have D'Artagnans on speed-dial now!)

C@H's Chicken Francese. If I don't make it to the grocery store, steamed carrots, broccoli and yellow squash. If I do, I think I'd rather have a baby greens salad. A piece of garlic bread for Tony.
Today is our first official day of watching it. I sure hope I have more dedication than the last time I tried to lose weight.

Thanks Jean! I lose 4.5 lbs in 4 days last time. And then Halloween came and everything just fell apart, and it was not from candy! It was cookies, pie, wine, etc.

Good luck, Trixxee!
Ribs sound so good! But with the start of the new year, I promised I'd rejoin the choir. So tonight will probably be either take out or leftovers.

We're having oven fried chicken and roasted vegetables. For dessert, devils food cake with marshmallow frosting that I made for Ron yesterday. First time making that type of frosting and he declared it "the best!"

Good luck Trixxee!
Tonight it's another new recipe, Pretzel Pancakes, caramel sauce, white chocolate sauce and link sausage to neutralize the sweetness of the sauces.

Jean, your ribs and taters look incredible!
I had an appointment after school, so tonight's dinner is Reuben sandwiches...mostly because they're easy, but also because I really like them.

Foie Gras French Toast – Oh my Lord, this is the best combination of flavor in a long time!! Words (at least mine) cannot describe the lusciousness of this dish. It is a Food & Wine idea, which I adapted to use the last of my Medallion of Duck Foie Gras with Truffles. And, of course bubbly to go with.
