Re: (...)
What are you all up to?
I cooked enough for an army a couple of days ago, so we're working on the leftovers of Hungarian Goulash, Butternut & Onions, a new Pork Belly dish (we haven't tasted yet).
I wanted a few days to just concentrate
on the darn book!!! - hopefully I can really finish it and get going with selling it on line in time for Christmas....I hope, I hope, I hope!
Retired and having fun writing cookbooks, tasting wine and sharing recipes with all my friends.

Looks like we'll be going in to the big town to get supplies. There's a new "take out" place that does sushi. Hard to believe it in the great white north. We'll probbly stop and get some.

We had the "portobello pizza" last nite with abottle of Gabbiano Chianti, roasted red bells with Per me oil, and a Boston lettuce and tomato salad--redundant color but very tasty!! We're still thinking about tonight.

Sounds so good. Gabbiano Chianti is one of our favorites. Bob came home with all the stuff for spaghetti and meat balls with Italian sausage, a nice baguette, and stuff for a romaine salad - and a bottle, forgot the brand, of chianti.
Tonight I'm going to riff that Sausage and butternut soup - but I have Chipotle sausages. Sounds like a really good combination to me.

I'm still working on my menu. I think it may be some sort of pizza.

Keep your mind wide open.
We're having rigatoni with Italian sausage, sweet peppers and basil tomato sauce, a salad and some garlic bread - I am thinking about making a coconut cream pie

Just got home from work (parents weekend at the University and I've fed enough people, I'm thinking) so I'm just throwing some filets on the grill, with the quick Port sauce from the latest issue, green beans and baby peas and rolls.
Dessert is a whoopie pie I brought home from work.
Wish I had more ambition to cook something interesting

I bought a whoopie pie in Maine last summer and it was one of the best things I've had. I'm jealous.

HC, I'll be interested in what you think of the Coq au Vin.
