The plate was James' first one. I had salad, veggie burger and steamed okra with a dash or 3 of siracha
Have fun with you MIL and be SAFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope Irma takes the big turn out to sea.Hello-
My MIL arrived Friday and I have been busy getting ready for her. We went to DC on Sat. and got home a short time ago. We arrived Sat. afternoon. We should have left earlier, but my MIL only just got in the night before and she was jet-lagged. So we left late morning. To be honest, the weather was miserable, so we didn't miss much. We had dinner at a fantastic Indian restaurant that is difficult to get reservations and just took it easy at the hotel. We spent yesterday and the the morning going into museums. The weather was so much better. I didn't workout, but I walked everywhere. I'll just jump back in tomorrow.
I am supposed to go to FL Saturday evening, but I am not so sure now that it looks like Irma is going to hit FL. I guess I'll know in a few days. I am flying Southwest, so if I have to cancel, they will credit me the cost of the flights. I am going to Chicago for Thanksgiving, so I am not really losing anything.
Thank you!! Looks really interesting. I hope I can get all the ingredients here!
Are you supposed to go to FL for work? Or were you headed there for fun? They said on the news this morning that I think the governor had already declared a state of emergency, just in case or something? I didn't even know they could do that.Hello-

Yes he did and it's called a stage 2 down there(I think). It means the cities and towns can get prepped and plans can start being made because evacuations need to be made a few days out when needed due to the volume of traffic.

That looks really yummy!!!A few pics from yesterday. I used no sugar, cooked everything from scratch and my dh took all the credit because he fired up the smoker and spent over half the time manning it
Hope it misses FL and you still get to go. Good that you can recoup the cost of the flights, just in case. Good luck!!Hello-

That's not exactly time off.Well we spent our whole holiday scrapping paint off the front door! Ugh!! The sun had blistered and cracked the paint. So, we decided just to strip it down to the metal and prime and paint it over. It took two days!! I am so tired of that dang door! I got the prime coat and one coat of paint on it. Have to wait a couple of days and will do the other one. We got it back up and put on the new doorknob and deadbolt. The hinges were replaced to but I told DH that they didn't look right. Yep we need to adjust the new ones a bit. That is for next weekend.
We took a day off yesterday and hiked a bit. Today was my normal grocery shopping and resting. Walking later.
Dinner is salmon, steamed broccoli, and baked sweet potato. Have a good night!

- To make any of the above curry pastes...
First peel the garlic and ginger. Put a frying pan on a medium to high heat and add the spices for toasting to the dry pan. Lightly toast them for a few minutes until golden brown and smelling delicious, then remove the pan from the heat.- Add the toasted spices to a pestle and mortar and grind until fine, or put them into a food processor and whiz to a powder. Either way, when you’ve ground them whiz the toasted spices in a food processor with the rest of the ingredients until you have a smooth paste.

Food processor with mini bowl, no workoutFor realz, there are 5 pastes, so about 10 ingredients each. Plus, the mortar & pestle grinding counts as an upper body workout.
