I’m one happy & fortunate lady. My scan results from Thursday show no lingering or return of cancer. It had consumed my life for almost 2 years; what with symptoms, diagnosis, chemo, radiation and 2 surgeries. I am finally able to fully breathe once again.
Merry Christmas to me

The Lord spoke to me too and asked “Who the hell is this Mike Johnson guy who keeps saying I to talk to him? Never met the guy. Seems a nasty little piece of human excrement. I should probably smote him down.”

UNVACCINATED PEOPLE SHOULD NOT BE GIVEN HOSPITAL BEDS.
My sister’s husband just died of heart condition complications. There were no beds available to him due to unvaxed COVID patients. He would be alive if he had access to treatment, his doctors say.
UNVAXED PEOPLE ARE KILLERS

Doesn’t this look good? Sweet (honey) and sour (lime and rice wine vinegar) chicken thighs with some mild chili peppers slow cooked in a crockpot. Fall off the bone tender. Served over rice with steamed broccoli.

Sautéed scallops tonight on a bed of sesame seaweed with dollops of sriracha aioli and dots of sriracha sauce. Simple and satisfying. Oh, yeah…wine was involved

How ridiculous a dinner is this? Steak and nachos. Big salad on the side to make it seem healthier. Oh, and wine was involved.

This afternoon, long before we had dinner, sis and her hubs stopped by for a short visit. Did I do enough?

I’m going to go to sleep tonight and wake up with 800 followers tomorrow morning.
I just know I will.
No pressure.😏

Pizza night! Spinach, pepperoni, mushrooms and fish mozzarella. This one was damn near perfect. Wine was for hubby.

Grill time! Marinated chicken thighs, eggplant slices with butter/olive oil/Parmesan/lemon and seasoning, baby bok choy, salad and crusty bread. The wines weren’t too shabby either. 😁

Tonight’s dinner: steamed shellfish. Snow crab clusters, lobster claws, local shrimp & clams in a white wine, vermouth, saffron, butter &lemon broth. Asparagus, zucchini & yellow squash quick-cooked in the same broth, toasted 3-cheese bread and a new wine for me! Luscious!

You all who liked my grazing board last night might like this; hubs wanted steak, I wanted something simple, like nachos. This is what I did. (salad on the side). Nachos included black beans, cheese sauce,salsa, spicy peppers, scallions,romaine, yogurt instead of sour cream.

Haven’t posted much lately. Feeling uninspired. I did twirl my pasta last night though. There’s that.

This is a shot of some of my “grazing” boards. Charcuterie boards are just smoked meats and possibly some cheese

Apologies for a sloppy plate. Forgot to wipe it before taking a shot (wine was involved) but it was delicious. Lemon pasta with clams, shrimp, black olives, spinach, butter, tomatoes, garlic and lemon& wine sauce. Added just a hint of heat that was lovely. Crusty bread & salad.

Corn and crab chowder with bacon. Soup season! The wine is for hubby. I still can’t have any.

Made something new for me. This is a tortilla pizza; pizza toppings on 2 flame-charred wheat tortillas with fresh tomato, pepperoni, onion and fresh basil. It was delicious. You need 2 tortillas to support the weight of the toppings. All glued together with mozzarella.

Are you tired of my pizzas on the grill yet? Such a lovely day, we just wanted to stay outside and do something simple on the barbie. Had some homemade dough and sauce in the freezer, pepperoni and sausage, an abundance of fresh herbs and veg plus fresh mozzarella. A happy meal!
23
16
145
Can someone give me a link to the perfect, fool-proof pizza dough recipe for a nice puffy chewy crust? I’ve made it at least a dozen times, tweeking it where I thought it needed to be, but I’m still not happy with it. Hubs liked it but I didn’t. *sigh* Was good but not perfect.

May I ask the obvious? Did a large mouth bass have its way with him?

One of all-time favorite meals is a simple,well-seasoned roasted chicken with pan-juice and giblet gravy. So soul-satisfying and comforting.

Confession time. I’ve mentioned on here my dealing with a medical condition. Today was a milestone for me. Last July I was diagnosed with colon cancer. Today marked the end of my chemotherapy as well as radiation. The tumor has been reduced from the size of a naval orange to

Old school tonight. After last night’s response, this is going to be a let-down. Spinach/chive linguine and meatballs with tomato/basil/spinach marinara. Wagyu beef meatballs! Hubs swooned. He likes old school.

Hubs wanted spaghetti and meatballs, so that’s what he got. Sauce was made about a month ago and frozen. It was easy to defrost and simmer the sautéed meatballs in it without heating up the house.

Garlic, brown sugar and sriracha chicken thighs done in the slow cooker. Sweet and spicy. Served with jasmine rice and broccoli.

My sporadic presence here lately is not intensional. I’m working on getting better as quickly as I can. Don’t you all forget about me! (a prior fig tart I made just to keep your appetites whetted)😆

I have posted a lot of whole roast chicken photos (like last night😁) but I think this bird was the beauty queen of them all. It turned out so picture perfectly. And was so good.

Made chicken thighs with figs, onions and balsamic glaze last night. Trying to use up those wonderful figs before they go bad on me. Never made chicken and figs before.

Local oysters defying the “R” month dictum; my version of Rockefeller. Spinach, onions, mushrooms, cream cheese, Gruyère, Pernod, Cholula hot sauce with Panko on top. Some champagne, cause, why not? My heart, this was good.

Keeping with the simple theme, what could be simpler than fettuccine and meat balls? Spinach pasta to be exact.

We wanted clams and linguine. I wanted to step it up a notch or two. Spinach and chive pasta, a beautiful broth of wine, lemon, tomato chunks and parsley and a touch of cream, soft-boiled egg to have a runny yolk over all and salmon caviar. Geez, it was delicious.
18

BBQ chicken thighs tonight with radicchio/arugula/tomato salad and Yukon gold potatoes swimming in butter. I don’t skimp on butter with a perfect simple potato. It’s comfort food.

Tiny portion cut from a huge NY strip (hubs ate the rest) with smashed ricotta potatoes and onion/red wine gravy. No, I didn’t overcook the steak. Just gave the cut end a tiny sear to hold in the juices. It was tasty and I did my best to finish it. 🥺

After several nights of seafood, we went carnivore; NY strip with sautéed onions and shrimp, roasted new potatoes and a big salad. Steak was cast-iron pan seared to a perfect med/rare. A nice Cabernet Sauvignon was enjoyed as well. Life’s good.
