Last night was leftover Beef Stew, I had some in the fridge so it just needed to be reheated. It was warm, comforting and so quick to make since it just needed to heat it up, it was wonderful.

You are looking for a pidpenky recipe - pidpenky are honey mushrooms, though people use differrent wild mushrooms and call it the same name. (nachynka is a dish made from cornmeal)

I don't make it myself, I just make a mushroom sauce from button mushrooms, but here are some links -

Look about halfway down on this link -

My mother and I would go picking mushrooms in the fall in the forest next to their farm. Mom would then clean the mushooms in water, boil them an then freeze them. Also she would string some and dry them and then bag them. And she made thisincredible tihick mushroom gravy.

Last night was chicken brochettes with vegetables and basmati rice. Tonight was just plain old peanut butter on caraway seed bread (Kimmel bread). Love the stuff! Much much better than plain old rye bread.

Last night was leftover pyrohy, added some gravy to them when I heated them in the oven. Husband added some eggs over easy for his meal.

Last night was leftover pizza reheated with chips and dip. Odd meals but not take out which is what mom was going for since we had to go and do a bunch of running around after I got off work.

Last night was ribs from Costco. They were good, although DS thought they were 'chewy.' We like them with a bit of bite to them. I think I will do more tonight, but do DS's in the crock pot.

Well I've been stuck in a wind tunnel!! ha ha..very high winds! Lost my power & internet on Wednesday the power came back but the internet only yesterday. Not fun!! I'm lucky today on dinner, stopped by my Nan's and she gave me a big bowl of homemade baked beans & pork right out of the oven and a loaf of fresh homemade bread..will prob have some later! I'm tired today. The winds continue and now we are getting a big storm tonight/tomorrow. Hope I don't lose my internet again.

This evening we are babysitting our grandkids while son and d-i-l go to their Christmas party from work. Son said he is leaving some money for us to order take-out. they live in a very small town so the choice is very very limited and im not a pizza lover. So it will probably be BBQ chicken, Greek potatoes and cole slaw from the local Metro or IGA.

Son is coming over for supper, so I'm making some of his faves: cornflake-coated garlicky fried porkchops, lazy cabbage rolls casserole, mashed potatoes, and salad.
