Sounds like a lovely day. I might get out to a store today.
Lilo just left my lap so I'm free, free!
Not that I have any big plans now that I'm free.
Need to clean yesterday's cat bowls and feed the cats. I've eaten and the dishwasher is running now. Possibly laundry late
The overnight low was a lot higher than the weather forecast showed yesterday
Free is Good
The Chicken Fried Tofu looks like chunks of chicken. The Dish looks tasty too and the rice looks nice and fluffy.parityanimal wrote: »Tonight's chicken fried tofu tikka masala that I prepared.

I just didn't remember to take a picture before I ate it!!! Hope you laughed...I did. Ed will notice something that I've known for quite awhile...and Roger will have no idea, nor should he!!
Mexico lost this morning, Brazil won...tomorrow will find me hurrying to do a few chores and be at the gym by 10a.m.
Sprinkled at my house a bit today...not like the rain we had yesterday. Jack and Nate came by yesterday, Jack worked on replacing some wall board, and Jack replaced the engine air filter on my car, and Nate (12 y.o) replaced the cabin filter. We had fun...got the hole fixed in the kitchen from a plumber visit.
Did some laundry, unloaded dishwasher, and I had a very nice nap! That's about it for the day.
Later...
Could it be related to the laptop by the plate ?
No Rain for several days, So I was outdoors in the heat of the day watering the plants in the front flower beds.
I still have a hole in the sheetrock that needs repair, Sadly
Have a Nice Day

Howdy y'all. It's terrific Tuesday! 73 with an expected high of 92 and 20% chance of rain.
I need a small grocery run today if I'm going to make J's potato salad tomorrow. I have a small pork loin I will slow cook and turn into tender pulled/shredded pork and may even attempt a home made blueberry pie! We'll see on the pie...
Other than the grocery run not a lot on the "required" agenda for today other than feeding the cats, cleaning up yesterday's cat bowls, drinking 3 more mugs of hot tea and a nap.
Lunch will be tikka masala. J will have the remaining chicken fried tofu tikka masala from last night and I will try a frozen chicken tikka masala from the same company.

Not too sure how I'd feel about eating ham and cheese hash brown cubes. I'd probably at least try one.

For lunch today, J finished off the tofu tikka masala, and I heated up the frozen Chicken Tikka Masala.
I give it a good, solid 9, as frozen meals go. It warmed up nicely in the microwave, and tasted really good. I think some people might give it a 10 for a frozen meal.
The spicing was right on, and the sauce wasn't too thin or too thick, and the rice fluffed up nicely enough when it came out of the microwave.
Serving it up properly, on a nice plate, instead of eating it out of the microwave container may have added a point, since appearance DOES matter.
Could have had just a tad more chicken and the chunks could have been a bit larger, but I am not really complaining.
It made a nice lunch.

I wimped out and made a Grocery Store Run Tuesday. I picked up a Chef Salad that will be the last meal of the dat today. I also have two Fried Chicken Breasts, same source in the refrigerator for my Holiday meal. Yesterday I tried two of the Macaroni & Cheese Breaded deep fried wedges, what they called Cheese-steak sliders. The so called sliders looked like a Corn Dog minus the stick. They were both OK.
I am guessing that the Blueberries would be home grown ?

Hi ValerieGardenKatGardens wrote: »Quick Good Morning cuz I gotta get moving.
Need to be at the gym by 10 a.m. to watch the soccer game. This works out really well...45 minute walk, gets me to the end of first half...then 15 minutes to get home..and watch the second half..followed by lunch time!
I WANT A WATERMELON....any ideas? I bought one last week at Kroger and had to take it back as you may recall, so yesterday I made a special trip out to Publix....what a waste. They are featuring watermelon chunks in the deli..rather expensive since all they're doing is cutting the really nice red watermelon into chunks...and the quartered melon, which is what I'd normally buy was UGLY. Pink, and one piece also had a wide swath of yellow nearest the white rind section...pink, yellow, white and a green rind does not make Valerie happy. Came home empty handed and still wanting watermelon!
Ok, rant over...
Ed, your dishes caught my eye some time ago and I've been grinning ever since. I have no idea how to get the pix side by side...so I'll let Roger know....Ed and I have the same dinnerware! I thought it was the pattern that my SIL had, but she assured me it was not her pattern...then I more closely looked at one of Ed's photo's and there was this 'a-ha' (or is it aha?) moment!!!
And I think Roger may be right...my dinner was half eaten before I remembered I wanted to photograph it....and yes, I was watching TV and messing with the computer while eating. I can't drive distracted, but I can sure eat that way!!
Later...
The last time I was in Whole Foods I saw reasonably priced Watermelon quarters FWIW.
Getting the pictures side by side is not hard, just put both on the same line in the message, the problem is that they should be fairly small doing that. One per line worked for me. I wonder how I missed that ?
As I see it the difference is that when eating distracted You do not run into the curb or parked cars

I'm awake! Really! I've been up for ages but distracted by internet, and making food. Pork loin is in one slow cooker, beans baking in another, and the blueberry pie I made is almost done. I'll be taking it out shortly to cool.
I've made the barbecue sauce. I still need to dry fry some tofu for making barbecued tofu for J and I still have potato salad and deviled eggs to make, but they don't take long at all.
I'm also doing laundry.

Well, I did finally stop messing around in the kitchen but do still have some laundry to work on and some clean up left in the kitchen. I made barbecued tofu for J.

Hi ValerieGardenKatGardens wrote: »Happy 4th!
I did make it to the gym. wasn't sure that would happen, as I woke middle of the night last night, and played on my iPad for 2 hours!! OOPS!
Today after gym I did go to the grocery and got the red potatoes, and parsley, to go with the other ingredients to make the vegan potato salad! I hadn't made potato salad in a very long time. This recipe is good!! Can't wait for dinner...and I had a couple spoon fulls with my green salad that I was eating as I made the sauce, boiled potatoes, etc. Fresh made and it was good already!
I don't know much else...I'd really like a nap, but its nearly 5p.m...kinda late for a nap, right???
Ok, I'll go clean up the kitchen, and feed the cat.
Later...
The Potato Salad sounds good, OTOH I tend to prefer Macaroni Salad.
I don't know about that, I ran out of get up and go around 4PM and laid down for a nap too.

I like the look of that plate of food, I should have, could have made deviled eggs as there are some hard boiled eggs in the refrigerator that I have been slowly using to make a egg salad sandwich for my mid day snack.
In this family we often put diced eggs into the Potato Salad.
