Time will tell. In the interim, let's discuss dinner. It's not quite fall weather here yet – we have been enjoying hot, summery days for a long while now, and have another stretch of days in the high 70s ahead of us. Despite the persistence of summer – which I am thoroughly enjoying – there are hints that fall is on the way. A few trees have begun testing out their fall fashions, a clump of leaves here or there bursting into gold or orange. My least favorite is the darkness greeting me each time my alarm goes off; Carla disagrees with this change as well, meeting the mornings with a disbelieving, "but it's still dark!" Aside from a nod here and there to autumn's imminence, I'm sticking with summery foods for now. Dinners for the Week of September 15-21 - Breakfast for Dinner: My husband wants to make waffles, so waffles we shall have! I will bake some bacon and mix up some scrambled eggs to go alongside.
- Szechuan Stir Fry: We haven't had this in a while – or any stir fry, really – so I'm in the mood.
- Southwest Salad: Recently my husband mentioned that he enjoys a salad most when it has a theme; I'm happy to oblige.
- Mulligatawny Soup: We're supposed to get at least one rainy day where the temps dip a bit. Soup will do nicely.
- Ham Sandwich: We'll round out the week with some ham sandwich, our shorthand for "eat what you will." Only my husband will eat an actual ham sandwich.
I am also in the mood for pumpkin bread. Or maybe I'll try pumpkin muffins. We'll see. I have a can of pumpkin puree just waiting to be put into service. | | | |  | You can also reply to this email to leave a comment. | | | | |
