Irish garlic sausage and cabbage soup. Leeks, shallots, garlic, carrots and cabbage were browned in bacon fat in the ci skillet and removed to the soup pot. Sausage was browned and added to the soup pot along with some left over bacon. Skillet was deglazed with chicken broth which was added to the pot with bay leaf and thyme sprigs. When the carrots were tender added fire roasted tomatoes and their juice. Just before serving I threw in a handful of parsley. Warm baguette and butter, pickled beets, sweet onion with horseradish sour cream and dill salad. The cook had a Negroni. Delicious and a perfect meal for another cold, windy, rainy day. I had seconds of the soup.

Then onto Pongal / rice and lentils cooked with ghee and tempered with curry leaves, cashews, and cumin.
Then tomato salad with honey and sesame oil.
And finished with bone marrow with caramelized onions and toast

Sorry to hear about that result. I hear you on getting older.

Regular poutine has never enticed me, but this? I’d hit that!

UGH - sorry on the not-so-good MRI. This meal will hopefully bring a bit of flavor joy to you. (And yes, getting old does suck!)

And THAT is why poutine just doesn’t sound good to me - fries are supposed to be crispy, not squishy all the way through.

I’m ok with the progression - it’s like cereal in milk. Also, by the time more of it is soggy than crispy, I’m getting full anyway!

Possibly the fugliest dinner I’ve ever had, looks like a case of Montezuma’s revenge on a plate
Frozen Shepherds pie from Farm Boy(Canada’s answer to TJ’s), it was on sale so I figured I’d give it a go.
I kinda messed up with the cooking instructions(pierced the plastic cover) so I think it came out waterier than it should have. Pretty tasty, a bit skimpy on the meat, the HP sauce saved the day. Doubt I’d ever buy it again.
