Country ham slices simmered in Dr. Pepper and vegetable stock with roasted sweet potatoes and bacon.

I hope the ham turns out well.  This is a new one for me.

Homemade pan pizza.

Dough: No-knead bread dough.

This is my first shot at it.  We'll see how it goes.


Oh man, that was really good.  I bought "pizza sauce" because spaghetti sauce doesn't work on pizza.  Good stuff.  Prepare the dough the day before and you'll have enough for four pizzas.  I spent less than ten dollars on ingredients including bread flour (not all-purpose) and yeast.  I probably could have doubled the amount of dough and had enough for eight pizzas.

It's awesome.  One batch of dough makes three pizzas.

Thanks for the links, Chris, that looks soooo good, but I made the mistake of reading it while starving.   What did you do with the extra dough, if you had enough for four pizzas?

I baked a loaf of bread with it.

Roasted Bacon-wrapped chicken thighs, redskin mashed potatoes, Bacon and chicken gravy, green beans, and hot crusty bread with butter.

Ginger cookies from the bakery with cream cheese frosting, strong black coffee and Fundador brandy for dessert.

I wanted a burger so I asked (nicely) biersmythe to grill some.  We had burgers with Dukes Mayo, sliced tomatoes, arugula (from our garden) and smoked gouda.  Damn winter burgers are good!!!!

New Year's Eve was Mrs. E's birthday.

I made *Chicken Jump-in-your-face, Wild Rice with gravy, and steam broccoli with real Hollandaise sauce. Oh, and I baked a pie -- note I said I BAKED it. That doesn't mean I MADE it.

It's really hard to beat one of Marie Callendar's pies, AFAIC. Crust is tender and flaky and the fillings are great.

*Whole chicken breasts breaded twice in Italian bread crumbs, sauteed in EVOO and butter, and topped with a slice of country ham and Muenster cheese.

Yesterday, my wife fixed a turkey breast for New Year's Day.  Tonight she fried some bacon, then heat up some of the turkey in the bacon grease.

Turkey, bacon and cheese sandwiches for supper tonight.  Quite tasty.

Good stuff.  I love split pea soup with lots of ham and fresh baked bread.

I'm thinking of "fancy" sloppy joes made with a cheap roast cut for tomorrow.

That's pretty much like mine, except  (no curry in mine) I also add:

"a bit of chopped garlic from a jar, 1/4 tsp thyme, a bay leaf or two, and a generous pinch of cayenne pepper." 

Try that and see if that doesn't just notch it up a bit.  :-)
