Monday, Monday, the day was dreary and overcast here today. There are snow streamers coming through currently. It feels like it is getting old, but it IS winter time. I try to make comfort food for us on such old and dreary evenings for supper. Tonight I have some little meatballs that I made and have them in muffin tins in the oven. I make some with bisquick on the bottom of the tin and then that browns while the meatball cooks. I like that taste. My hubs prefers just the meat. I will open a can of pork and beans to go along with it. Comfort food on a cold day. We will have a little piece of cake afterwards too. I made a small one for us and this large one for our son and his family. The girls loved it, the strawberries and the chocolate were a huge hit for those 2 little ones. What's cooking for supper at your place tonight? ~Photo is mine

I am so happy to see you back again, you must have been very busy off line. He has to take the girls to a birthday part late this afternoon, and he will be home late, so this gives me something to reheat for myself. he can reheat some for him when he returns.

@LadyDuck You are getting very close to the moving day then I assume. I hope that he can help you with everything, that would be so convenient.

@Juliaacv - I am so busy every day now. We called a mover to have an estimate of how much the move will cost and also to know if he can take care of what we will not bring with us. He will be exhausted when he returns home, something easy to reheat will be perfect for him.

Your supper sounds delicious, I love chicken. I have to call the butcher today and place an order. I just dread the thought of driving all of the way out there at this time of the year. You never know what the road conditions will be like, but we are getting really low.

@Marilynda1225 I made the order, now I have to wait until I get the call that it is ready, probably late Thursday afternoon or Friday.

@Juliaacv hope you can get your order in and a pick up without a hassle. I hate always having to worry about road conditions all winter long.

We still have leftover rice and mongo soup and so that will be our dinner. Eating soup makes us warm in these cold days. We only have 2 degrees celcius outside.

@thelme55 This evening it is -8C here, which is cold. I would rather it be really cold, as I can bundle up, and it helps to kill the germs.

@Juliaacv Yes, we are lucky. I heard that Canada is colder than Germany. At least in the part of Germany where I live.

My stepmom sent some spicy sausage soup home with me. I wish I knew what was in it other than tomatoes because it is absolutely amazing. That’s what I’ll be having.

Sounds yummy. I had the last of the sloppy Joe mixture and some chips. I thought about heating up the ribs, but I will do that tomorrow. I was out this afternoon..and didn't feel like putting too much effort into a square meal.

There wasn't alot of effort in my supper either. Just rolling up the little meatballs, which is easy and then pop them into the oven to bake. I just don't enjoy cleaning the muffin tins afterwards, but that is done now too.

Thank you. Best of all, Daddy gave each of the girls a spoon and told them that they could spoon out the strawberries, and of course whatever icing came along with it. They told Grandpa all about it today.

Thank you, the strawberries really dressed it up. The girls and the parents too, both enjoyed it. It was a nice mid-winter, pre-birthday dessert.
