Hey, guess what? I don't let the person at the checkout stand tell me
what I need to buy to make lasagna that tastes good. I've made lasagna
using really good quality riccota cheese. I still prefer cottage
cheese. Riccota is too dry and requires the addition of a lot more
moisture. Don't care for it, even if it is the so called Italian version.

Well goodness no. There really is no reason to make an Italian version
of lasagna. FWIW, I like it better with ricotta.

It's the childhood we all had. The food industry was just beginning to
stretch and tell us what we needed. Things aren't any different
today. What do you think our children will be dissing when they are
in their 50s and 60s.

I'm torn. I have some cubed round steak in the freezer which needs to
be used. I'm thinking country/chicken fried steak with cream gravy.
Simple country fare served with butter beans.
 
But, something else has been tugging at me which is much more
interesting. Stuffed scallops.
 
I have some very large scallop shells which were gifted to me by a
neighbor. She bought them with the intention of making Coquilles St.
Jacques but never got around to it.
 
I have made crab and shrimp "stuffing" using canned lump crab and thawed
from frozen diced shrimp for stuffed flounder. No big deal to
substitute small thawed Patagonian (bay, petite) scallops in the
breadcrumb and sauteed vegetable mixture. Spoon onto the scallop shells
and bake. I think I'll tackle that this weekend. :)

Dave, if you keep saying things I agree with, I'm going to have to
take you out of my killfile, so cut it out!

I see my GP, about every three months, naturally each time Nurse Nancy
does my BP, Pulse, and gets my weight. After age 70 I began gaining
like 1-2 pounds each visit, after a year my doctor said that's
typical, as people age they are less active, tend to eat more, and
their digestive tract slows. His advice was Meta Mucil every day and
it worked, weight came off with no effort because I ate less because
Meta Mucil makes one feel full. My doctor recommends that everyone
over 50 should be taking Meta Mucil. I take a rounded tsp in a 10 oz
glass of water every day after my 10 AM brunch. Each person will need
to figure out their own dosing, but that's easy, directions are on the
package.

You can do it either way. I'm partial to adding teriyaki sauce to cooked
meat but traditionally, in Hawaii, teri-beef has been made by marinading in
thin teriyaki sauce. If you add the sauce to cooked meat, you should use
thick sauce.
 
Thanks! That is what I have been doing, but I never knew if it was
right or not :))))
 
Thick teriyaki sauce is easy to make. Add some soy sauce to a pan and add
enough sugar to balance out the saltiness. Add almost an equal amount of
water and some ginger and a little garlic to taste. I don't usually add
garlic but some people do. Thicken with some corn starch/flour slurry.
 
Gosh! I buy it in bottles here. I have kept that recipe though in
case I need it.
 
There's a lot of stuff happening on this rock, food-wise. The other day, a
woman proudly showed me her pasta machine that she got from Japan. I wanted
to take her picture with it but she was too shy. :)
 
Do you mean a pasta cutter?
 
Here's what I had yesterday. It's mochi rice cooked in coconut milk, mango,
and haupia (coconut) sauce. It's pretty good if you like that kind of stuff.

I think it's a matter of terminology. You didn't so much diet, but
changed your lifestyle. If you'd been dieting the weight would have
come back the moment you stopped.

Got a response already!

I use junk mail trash to make pads... the backs of junk mail are
rarely printed. I stack up about 50 sheets, staple each corner and
then cut into quarters = 4 nice pads. I have a Swingline that's rated
to staple 70 sheets.

I've just emailed her, but she's in a different time zone, and works
late, so she won't she it til much later.

Let's see you actually approve of her using a Ninja Foodi and approve of
the results. That's if she bothers to take a picture of it. ;)

Yes, cotton is bad about wrinkling but I find 100% cotton to be extremely hot
in the summer and I just steer clear of it winter or summer. Linen is nice
in the summer but it wrinkles terribly, too.
