I'd love to join this group so here goes:
Tonight I'm unable to cook dinner because I've put my back out so it's Chinese take-away for us (and some valium on the side for me). The Chinese will include Chicken chop suey and Crispy Beef.

Welcome, Lifelover! We ate dinner in Boston's Chinatown last Friday night and had lobster sauteed with ginger and scallions and beef sauteed with peppers, onions and pineapple. When Chinese is good, it's really good. Sometimes, though, you find some really crummy stuff!!!

Kay- That is just awful that your nephew couldn' eat his birthday cake. So heartbreaking I hope they found him a special treat today.
Welcome lifelover! enjoy your Chinese food. I love it- but it hates me. But I'll keep trying, lol!
Deb- You should have come here for dessert!
Debbie- I hope you had fun shopping today.
Apple- I hope your tree turned out great and you had fun doing it.
I am thinking left over lasagna is on the menu for tonight. Can't get much easier than that. My oldest is getting a cold again so we stayed in today and kept to ourselves. We made Christmas ornaments from stuff I got at the craft store. It went pretty well, nothing got broken, lol!

The downside of a Thanksgiving trip to IL with DH. Coming home with 5.5 extra lbs. It wasn't just Thanksgiving day. We went to Chicagoland for the weekend following Thanksgiving. Got our hot dog fix at Portillo's. Had Chicago pizza at a 2nd family get-together.
Tonight we're having halibut and steamed yellow squash and probably a spinach salad.
The weight used to fall off so easily. Not any more. Age and arimidex.

Kay~ Lol- now you HAVE to tell!

LOL, I raided my DD's Halloween candy. It's her own fault for not finishing it yet. I had licorice, twix bar, Heath bar and snickers bar, but they were mini ones. Now I am finally full. Good thing I had that cholesterol test last week.

Kay- thats not so bad, infact it sounds good- I may raid my kids candy tonight too ;P

To all....
I'm just impressed that your kids still 'have' Halloween candy to dip in to!! Back when I was a kid, other than a stray tootsie roll, there was nothing to snitch past the first week! Oh my!0 -
LOL, Kay!!!
We're back from rads #4, had a great trip in and out. We came home and had grilled cheese and tomato soup for supper! That might be the first time in decades!
Joyce - we'll have to go with you next year, that's a great event at T-Bones!
Carolehalston - one of the salesguys that my DH supports sent us some famous Chicago pizzas a few years ago. They were really good! Someone else sent us the famous cheesecakes. Now those we mostly gave away as I am diabetic and just didn't need to eat much of that! I think there was 25 pounds of cheesecake, at least!!!

OMG Laurie - That cake looks absolutely delicious. Deb's right - we should have gone over to your house for dessert. Hey - my birthday's Friday. Think you can save me a piece.
Kay - I hope somebody complained to the Carvel store. What a disappointment for a little boy. My friends granddaughter has celiac. When I bring dessert to a party, that I know she's going to be at, I always bring something gluten free for her. The mixes on the market today are pretty good, especially the brownies.

Thanks for the fab welcome Ladies!!!
Good Chinese food is very difficult to find here in the UK but our local comes close to what I used to get in NYC.
Tonight it's Chicken Chausseur with loads of winter vegetables and a bottle of red wine Oh yeah, maybe a few chunks of chocolate.

We are having a raindeer stew served with mashed potatoes and lots of vegetables.

Rava-Welcome, It's great to have some new kinds of dishes like the raindeer stew my DH would love it, I have never been a fan of gamey foods, but would deffinately cook it for him.
0 -
Welcome, Rava! We might have a hard time finding reindeer here in the US, but maybe you could post your recipe as we could substitute other meat like elk or deer, or beef. Are you in the midst of chemo?
It's nice to see this thread going "international" and I am looking forward to learning about all your local holiday recipes.

just an aside...
my cousin in law tracks, charts and hunts bears and shoots them with a powerful bow and arrow... then eats it all winter. She heads the Minnesota conservation and wildlife division something or other and only shoots bear in over populations. Her name is Princessa... LOL
0 -
Wow what a picture! I can imagine that would take a while to eat. I wonder what ut tastes like.
0 -
OMG Apple! Nothing "Princessa" about that picture...lol! I had bear many years ago but didn't care for it. Generally speaking, I am not fond of any big game meat unless it's farm raised.

Okay I picked up my Dd (she recently turned 14 and is in 8th grade). Not sure whether to laugh or not. The screen says, dear me, you are the sexiest thing that ever walked the face of the earth. Love, me. I'd have no problem with the prettiest or cutest, but sexiest, and she isn't even in high school yet. Whose daughter is this?

debbie, in Norway raindeer are domesticated, or at least herded in parts of the country.
