Av doesn't do fish of any kind Skyweir, but I knew a chef who did monkfish tail in red wine sauce that I bet would have won him over! ;)

Fish? Did I mention fish? hahahaha

I love fish and chips, but if I were to cook fish which we don't do that often - swordfish, whiting, gar .. mmm .. there all mild fish. Im not a fan of fresh water fish - there usually too fishy!!! hahahahahaha

And cheers - but Im way too old to worry about winning peeps over - :LOLS: :LOLS: :LOLS: :LOLS: :LOLS: :LOLS: :LOLS: :LOLS: :LOLS:

You guys are spot on with your food preparation - I feel quite inadequate.

Tonight I made dinner - 2nd time in 5 days. Maggots and eggs! So easy - chicken noodles with eggs with buttered toast on the side. Oooh la la!!!!

i know I suck!!! haha

But I will add that when I had kids - I cooked every night, me not Trev!! :P :P :P

Lunch yesterday with Menolly: shared eight pieces of albacore sashimi, three each ahi and salmon nigiri, and half maki roll each of ahi and salmon.

Brunch today with Dam-sel: I had Papas Rancheras - crisp country potatoes and cheese, topped with two over-medium eggs, served with red or green sauce, guacamole and sour cream. She had raspberry french toast with two over-easy eggs and a bacon rasher.

Today I took some slices of the ham from New Years, and made a sandwich with some of the pineapple chunks, mayonnaise, and spicy brown mustard. I had that with some navy bean soup I made with the ham bone in the Instant Pot for dinner yesterday.

The soup was good last night. It was even better today after sitting overnight.

Mmm, I second what Sky said.
Except I don't think I'd do pineapple chunks on a sandwich. (fresh or canned? this may be a silly question; I'm going to guess they're probs fresh)
but otoh, ham-and-pineapple-pizza.

I'm having a boring lunch... hot dogs sans bun + a microwaved potato & 1/2 a microwaved sweet potato.
but it's alright!

Pineapple chunks from the ham were canned tidbits, but they worked well on the sandwich.

My hubbie made whole-wheat bread yesterday.
So this afternoon I made and ate a much-sought-after chicken-tomato-and-mayo sandwich with melted Monterey jack cheese for myself.
(I also had some cooked veggies and brown rice, like everyone else.)

It may be hard to imagine the thrill I have over eating that kind of sandwich, so I will explain.

When I lived in Vancouver, (Canada) for 4 years, I learned that cheese was expensive there.
Meat was expensive. (compared to U.S.)
Money was tight, so we didn't buy those things much.
Ground beef, some.
Pork sometimes was crazy-marked-down.
Chicken, I think almost never.

I was pregnant and then nursing for the last year and a half of our time there.
So chicken became this coveted food / protein source to me.

And the ideal in my mind was to have a chicken sandwich (or "chee-chahn sandwich" as we called it) with mayo and tomato on bread (preferably homemade whole-wheat).
And I still love it.
Glad to know its allure has lasted.

So will probably lunch πŸ₯— this afternoon some time. Plus I hate the wind .. πŸ™„πŸ–• .. oh I mentioned that 😬

Preoccupied πŸ€”
