Red Meat . . . .

Obviously I should have taken pictures of the fish tacos I had for dinner.

Nope, raw pork chop . . . or possibly veal, if you can even get it anymore.

Oh, yes. Succulent!

A tasty bite, for sure, and it's one that takes the diner in a very healthy direction, as far as food choices have been in this thread lately! LOL.

Well, we can't have that! Today's 'refrigerator soup' does have vegetables, but that's mostly because I don't know how to make soup without them.irate:

It's easy to find in Portland but then, we're Brewlandia.

Oh. Dear. Lord!

C'mon over. Portland is beerlandia and Foodie Central. Wait until you try the local Dungeness crab burger with a pint of craft.

Of course. I'm not sure that fake crab is even legal in Oregon or Washington.

So far I'm having Cajun rabbit and roast asparagus. I do have some new potatoes out in the garden but I also have snap peas. Decisions, decision!

Hmmm, if I have the snap peas for salad then I can use the potatoes to make potato/leek soup because I've got a pretty fair crop of leeks out there, too.

An interesting suggestion that will bear experimentation. Thanks.

Corned Beef, chicken, cheese and . . . coleslaw? Innnnnnnnteresting!

Aw, C'mon, Flanderian. You can get anything on the 'Net. Hell, even deli's overnight stuff out.

I went out in the garden and accumulated the makings for potato/leek soup. Life could be worse.

I think I'll just go sit on the back porch and cry for a while.

And go for walks. Long morning and evening walks are the gentlest exercise for someone your father's (and my!) age. And they definitely help take off the pounds, as well.

And cheese is pure protein!

Why, yes, thank-you. I will.

When I go to a restaurant and order steak (which I seldom do up here in the seafood-rich PNW) and the waiter asks how I want it, I answer, "Bleu". If he knows what I mean I'll come back. If not, I sigh and order something else.
