It ain't my fault. There is a book Dal Bhaat. Anyway try Google.

In Nepal, I had dhal bhaat tarkari...

What a day. I finally sitting, nay…. Laying ( I ate too much😋😄)

I went to grocery stores from 8-10, came home had breaky and started to prep for cooking…just ate n had to rest my feet. In half hr I have to catch up on some sewing… (niece getting married very soon)

@Wildflower

I much prefer the early morning shopping also. Hopefully avoid the crowds and traffic.....even though in my lil town there is not much traffic if I use back roads.  There is a beautiful drive through a conservation area, only thing is the road is gravel.....and dem rich people living off of it don't want no smooth road to get plenty traffic.

Two oldest grandson sleeping over and for dinner, requested pasta and sauce made with my now famous chicken meat balls (made with shredded zucchini).

Also have zucchini muffins with vanilla ice cream for their dessert!

Mom called and told them she is coming for them tomorrow and I can hear them sweet-talking her into letting them stay until Sunday.

So now I have to figure out what to cook for them for the next 4 days!!

Macaroni an cheese, Cheese an Macaroni, Rice an peas, Peas an rice ...story done.

Yea.....I ask them every day what they want for dinner....and den I cook it!!

Today....they asked for canned Salmon (cooked with onion/garlic/tomatoes) and oil roti!!

VB, I like canned salmon with lots of onions, hot pepper and tomatoes too but recently someone told me that they don’t put tomatoes sometimes but they crack eggs over it. I tried it and enjoyed it too…well I love to cook and I love food so I enjoy most things😋😋

Yesterday I visited a friend for dinner… we had peas n rice with bbq chicken and Manchurian chicken n jasmine rice. I brought home some peas n rice and it for lunch. It’s sheer left overs I am eating ( fridge food)

Anyone seen Siggy?

On the menu, lamb biryan, naan with butter chicken. Nope, I did not cook! I spent all day looking for something I put somewhere but don’t know where and sadly, I am exhausted and the thing is still not found.

so my son got food at Babu’s and he shared😋

Omg Irfon, if I could even remember anything it would help. The only place left for  me to look is the garbage bin…and I pray that I did not throw it in the recycle bin caz that was emptied last Thursday. If it was mine I may have given up.

old brain😔

we were planning to buy a bigger house, then Covid hit and we held off, but I garbaged many things in a hurry and now I need some of them back    

Lol @ garbaging stuff. My son threw stuff out from the garage and when I was setting up the new washer and dryer I looked for it then he to,d me it was there for so many yrs and we did not use so he threw out. Luckily my hoarder neighbour had taken all the stuff and when I was telling him that my son threw out my stuff he went and got it😁

Cooking today's rainy-day dinner......

boil'n'fry - eddoe, half-ripe plantain, American and West Indian sweet-potatoes.  Stewed salt fish!! (no dumplins today)

Very rarily I cook this, so we are going to sit down and enjoy every single bite!!

Mmmmm@VB😋 that’s one of my fav 😋 although it must have deep fried boiled duff. I also like it with fish curry and a big pot of sweetened tea.

Today I cooked boiled black beans then fry up some onion, garlic, hot pepper, thyme  n turmeric before I stir in the beans….will have it for breakfast tomorrow. I had doubles for lunch.

yesterday I went out and got pc fresh salmon caz I saw Irfon say he had salmon….I pan fried it with dill, garlic, butter, milk, lemon juice n habanero…with wild rice cooked in fresh tomatoes and basil

Never heard of curry corn beef…although I have curried sardine😀 well I curried potatoes and put the sardine on top. I have not made that in over seven yrs. oh wait I have also curried potatoes and add corned mutton to that. Those are foods my hubby requested.

today I made salt fish with lots of tomatoes and sweet bakes for some ppl and garlic n pepper bakes for me and my son

now it’s time for 🍷 movie and rest

Got some homegrown, fresh, organic sieme from a Trini friend

Curried it with eddoes, shrimp and a lil bit coconut milk......it was soooooo good.

Don't usually get sieme in my area so it was a treat.

VB I cannot remember the last time I had Sieme curry…that’s nice food.

I grew some whitish beans…I googled it and it showed up as moon bean and also grew some flat purple beans which I cut up and cooked together with salt fish and tomatoes…it kinda reminded me of seime

I having a banana with a small glass of avocado milk, soon I should start howlin like a Bacoo.

Dinner today.....

Chicken drumsticks seasoned and cooked in air fryer. (my son gave me air-fryer for mother's day and I thought I would never use it.  well, I am using it all the time.  It is ideal to cook for 2 people.

Sides to go with it - string beans cooked with garlic and red onions.  Potatoes and cauliflower mashed with plain yogurt.

I have not cooked since last week when I made bakes with salt fish n tomatoes😳

During the week I had steak n burgers from elk, moose, bison and deer….tried something wild and different every day…had poutine with elk gravy….plus some junk food.  I also saw all those animals except bison.

Try Moose, I would say it was the best meat I ever ate.

Yes indeed, I did enjoy the moose steak. I like all kinds of wild meat, have not eaten any that I would not have again.

So what’s on the menu these days?
yesterday I made fry aloo n tomato choka with sada roti….had it for lunch today too.  Not sure what to have for dinner today. I am home alone so maybe I fry ups some tomatoes with onion garlic pepper and crack eggs over to go with left over roti.
