Boiled crabs, sausage, potatos, and corn...    :yum:

(They were all boiled in the same Zatarain's Crab Boil seasoned water)  :drool:

Tacos.  I got some ground turkey on sale really cheap earlier this week and it made some tasty taco filling. 
Hm.  That sounds interesting.  Turkey is usually cheaper than beef, especially since beef prices have gone through the roof.

I started to make Joan Lunden's Spicy Chicken Tortilla Soup (which is deliscious by the way, google it) but became seriously nauseous and couldn't finish.   I started methotrexate a couple of weeks ago and have felt kind of sickly lately.

I ended up having Chick-fil-a chicken noodle soup.

Made beef and cheese enchiladas for the crew.  None of them had ever had them.  EVER.

I gotta cook more.

We made (not the first time) shreded beef tacos the other night using a "Pit Roast". Essentially beef cubes wrapped up in oven proof paper. We get them at Savemart (was Albertsons) or FoodMaxx. You bake them for 6-8 hours in the oven @ 250. Usually it's seasoned with Pappys (low salt) seasoning. Just shred after it's done.

I'm having pancakes tonight.     :drool:

Tomorrow red beans, rice and sausage with a nice little deer roast.  My husband will think he died and went to heaven.  After all his cussing driving home, he'll be happy. For some reason, he hates driving the Texas highways.    :rotf:

Ok I made Joan Lundon's Spicy Chicken Tortilla Soup. Here is a picture of it just a few minutes ago, before the sour cream is added (you have to wait until just before you serve it). I serve it with diced avocado and tortilla's cut into thin strips toasted in the oven.

I said homemade, not homegrown silly.  Meaning, I didn't get them out of a can.  I cooked them all by myself!   ::)

That sounds good.

A reuben is my benchmark for any deli or restaurant.  If they can't make a good reuben, I don't plan on going a second time.

There used to be a place in Harvey, IL, called Rube's Sportsman's Club. They served the best and biggest open faced Reubens I ever ate. HUGE portion of corned beef, loads of sauerkraut, lots of melted cheese, all on a really big piece of rye bread.

Sports figures from the Chicago area and from visiting teams left signed autographs and photos, which were displayed throughout the restaurant.

We went there several times a month when I worked at Maremont Corp., almost just across the street. That's all gone now, and for the most part, so is Harvey, IL, all victims of the gangbanging thugs, crooked dimbo politicians and crooked cops in the area. Very high crime and murder rate there....

Ahhh, the memories.

I ran out of cumin today.  An Indian cooking site said to use yellow curry as a substitute since it's mostly cumin.

We'll see how it goes.
