Last night we went out for German food. Before bed my FIL asked about local brunch spots, so I decided to make a big breakfast with the leftover corned beef, potatoes, onions, and rutabaga: corned beef hash. It was really good - I saved the broken eggs for myself (oh well). Not pictured is the cinnamon roll casserole made to rescue overly dry ones that didn’t work out for my MIL.
Dinner tonight will be either leftover fish chowder or meatloaf, mashers, and steamed broccoli.

Another big boi pork chop with leftover potato gratin and roasted broccolini w/ tomato. Gravy is from the beef shanks I made a while ago.
Cheesy 80’s herb garnish just because

Planned this dinner for last night, until a friend reminded me of dinner at Dali last night that my calendar reminder didn’t remind me of! Lots of good tapas, sangria, Cuarenta y Tres and Churros last night.
Tonight, steak tips with Ballymaloe steak sauce, half a baked Russet tater with TPSTOB&SC, and steamed and buttered asparagus.
Wine.

Chowder it was, with green salad, bread, and leftover corn casserole. We all thought the soup was better after resting. No pics.

Dinner was more of the PR food from a newish spot that’s popular with the local Latino crow we grabbed earlier today, as it was a ginormous amount of food.
Chicharron, pollo al ajillo, yellow rice. We’d finished the pork at lunch, so made dinner of a plate of rice and chicken. A bowl of that lovely lohikeitto was even better reheated tonight 
Off to drinks with friends

Faux pho was a success! I sauteed a steak briefly in a fry pan then removed to let it rest. I added a little ginger, fish sauce and mushrooms. I added the beef stock, brought it to a boil then poured it over the steak which I since placed in the bottom of a bowl. I added some bean sprouts, snow peas, rice noodles and Sriracha then served. This dish is definitely a winner!

I ordered straciatella soup and chicken marsala with veggies from my neighbourhood trattoria, after eating cookies all day long. 
Both hit the spot.

I chased my post with 2 of @rstuart’s delicious whipped shortbread, bringing today’s cookie total to 10. 2 test cookies, 5 cookie swap cookies, 1 more test cookie, 2 whipped shortbreads.
I left my cookie swap loot in the car so I wouldn’t eat any more.

We enjoyed another outstanding dinner at Drew’s Bayshore Bistro in Keyport, NJ, including pan roasted duck breast with duck confit and mushroom jambalaya; crab cakes; fig and gorgonzola toast; muffuletta and burrata salad, with nduja spread; BBQ shrimp; It all went great with a couple of excellent cabernets.

oops, posted this on the November thread.
dinner last night at my sister’s - I made Chilean seabass seared with shiitakes and garlic, drizzled with sake, then into the oven to finish. A little soy, sesame oil, and scattered red chilies, scallions, and ginger, then drizzled with hot oil to sizzle everything up. Amazingly good. Sister made a cuke and red onion salad with sugar and white vinegar, perfect contrast to the salty flavors of the fish.
Also, I made eggnog that I’m aging, following a Ruhlman recipe. The small jar we’ll have this xmas, and the big jar will be for Xmas 2024. Boozy goodness - can’t wait!
