Chicken quesadillas.

I did my grocery shopping today with Amber and Alyssa. Sure is tiring shopping two big places. Lunch was very good from the Golden Corral. Alyssa enjoyed it, kept saying I am having fun. Kids can eat free there until they are four years old. Supper for me was a lunch meat sandwich.

I doubt if I can stay awake to watch Survivor, but will try.

We're visiting family in Ponte Vedra for a few days. They're Robert's favorite sister and BIL, and I love them so much. We've been having a terrific time, but these people have no concept of healthy eating, lol. I went on strike last night and sent Robert out to pick up everything we needed for a big, crowded, crunchy salad. We grilled some fresh sbrimp that I glazed with a mango lime sauce and just laid the skewers on the salads. Yay! They loved it. We'll be leaving soon for beach time, visiting the graves of Robert's parents, driving around to look at sights, eating, and more eating.

We woke up to a light rain this morning. It's got a nip in the air and got up to 62 degrees. We liked it! :0) Very hearty and I put hot sauce over mine. 3 lbs potatoes, diced(small) & boiled, skins on 1 lb bulk breakfast sausage 1 cup diced raw onion 6 eggs 1 Tbl flour 1/2 lb grated cheddar cheese Seasoning salt & pepper to taste Fry the sausage, drain any grease off & add onions in a skillet until fully cooked. Press the potatoes into a 13 x 9 casserole dish. Spoon the sausage mixture over the potatoes. In a large mixing bowl whisk eggs, flour, salt & pepper. Pour over casserole, distribute the grated cheese over the top. Cover with foil. Bake 1 hour @ 400 degrees. This post was edited by nicole__ on Wed, Sep 10, 14 at 21:10

Recipe from The Brown Hotel in Louisville, KY. The Legendary Hot Brown Recipe Ingredients: 4 oz. Butter Flour to make a Roux (about 6 tablespoons) 3 - 3 1/2 cups Milk 1 Beaten Egg 6 tablespoons Grated Parmesan Cheese 1 oz. Whipped Cream (optional) Salt and Pepper to Taste Slices of Roast Turkey 8-12 Slices of Toast (may be trimmed) Extra Parmesan for Topping 8-12 Strips of Fried Bacon Melt butter and add enough flour to make a reasonably thick roux (enough to absorb all of the butter). Add milk and Parmesan cheese. Add egg to thicken sauce, but do not allow sauce to boil. Remove from heat. Fold in whipped cream. Add salt and pepper to taste. For each Hot Brown, place two slices of toast on a metal (or flameproof) dish. Cover the toast with a liberal amount of turkey. Pour a generous amount of sauce over the turkey and toast. Sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese. Place entire dish under a broiler until the sauce is speckled brown and bubbly. Remove from broiler, cross two pieces of bacon on top, and serve immediately.

What your thoughts about Wedding Cake rose?
Q

Plectrudis (viridiflora), I am surprised that you were told it wouldn't do well in the heat. Ralph who bred this rose lived about 45 miles south of me. While I am a tad bit hotter than he was in the summer, our temps are still like the surface of the sun on a summer day. That goes on for weeks on end and it may cool off at night to the 80's or so for about three seconds (give or take). Right now, mid February it is 80 degrees here! A bit unusual but seems to be the trend for the past couple of years. I had to wait about 6--9 months to get my rose on its own root from Burling. I then had it in a pot for over another year before I finally put it in the ground. It wasn't much more than three twigs at that point. I am glad that Burling told me it takes a very long time to develop on its own root. It has been in the ground for a year now. It is about a foot to a foot and a half tall. Slow is the operative word but I am still glad to be blessed with three of them. Here's hoping they will double in size this year. Third year, they should start to leap (keeping fingers crossed). Also, since the flowers last so long on the "bush", it is rarely without flowers even in our heat. Flowers in the heat last about a week and when it is cooler, about two weeks. A long time for a rose bush. I am glad to know there are others who want and like this unusual rose.

Had ditalini and shrimp salad for lunch and we're going out with our house guests for dinner. Don't know what I'm ordering yet. Actually, I'm not that hungry. I have enough food left over I won't have to cook the rest of the week. Yeah!!

jeaninwa, love smoked sausage with pepper and onions, but your version sounds really interesting. Might have to try that soon.

gadget, know what? I've only had stuffed peppers once in my long life and never cooked them myself. You did good!

Sharon, I've never had haddock in any form or fashion, Don't think I've seen it on the menu in restaurants in Alabama.

You dinner sounds good!

DH just stopped by my room to say that he was still too full from our breakfast at Heaven on Earth this morning. (I think he is also upset because he hit the corner of the roof putting the Motor Home back beside the house. We now have TWO broken awnings.) Shudda stayed another day up the canyon!

Oh, he had a heavenly Omlet, I had Heavenly pancakes with fantastic Marionberry Jam (half of which I brought home).

We had left over pan fried chicken with cream gravy and corn for dinner that I had brought home from work. Marilyn I am glad you had a better experience than we did on Sunday for lunch. The prime rib did'nt have any taste. Glenda I have never had peanut butter pie there

DH made dinner since I was at soccer practice with the girls. Baked chicken tenders (not breaded), carrots & broccoli, cresent rolls. Pretty basic, but good and it's WONDERFUL when we all eat the same meal! My DDs and DH can be picky!
