We are having cheese fondue on Saturday. Would it be weird to try some cheese fondue with existing baklava?

Post-k1 speed luncheon:
pot roast with gravy
roasted vegetables
desserts - stroopwaffels, chocolate-covered s’mores, and peanut butter cups

I’m getting slow cooker tips & ideas for my corned beef round tip :-)

someone else made the pot roast. I had it on their porch. 12 hours in a crock pot! I’m getting ideas to slow cook my Costco corned beef overnight so that the meat will be room temperature and not hot when we eat corned beef sandwiches :-)

On the porch?
BTW--corned beef and even just regular brisket is always better the second day. Make it the day before you serve it...unless I am having it hot with cabbage & potatoes etc, I always make it the day before.

Beef and mushroom pie with salad from the bakery down the road. Crappy weather today; cold, windy and wet.

ooh good point. I might make it 3/16 and serve it 3/17. I’m going to have to really finalize my decision about this corned beef. I’m rather nervous.

yes, I ate my luncheon on their porch. They set up distanced seating & tables on their porch. Masked indoors to get the food and then unmasked consumption outdoors on the porch. It’s like outdoor dining for a restaurant.

Tomato-based curry maybe?

ETA: I can't believe it's middle of March already. This year is going fast, but I suppose that's because 2020 was such a dumpster fire. I need to buy corned beef this week!

A tiny amount of dead horse. Trust me, by my standards, that's tiny. Oh to go back to the school days when you'd take the big thing of sauce and stick the nozzle into the pie so it all mixed the flavours and at the same time cooled the scalding hot filling. Then you'd apply liberal amounts on the top of the pastry as well.

Sunday morning treat. Skinny bagels (about half the height) with cucumber-chive cream cheese, red onion, and thinly sliced smoked tuna. Bagels and cream cheese from Once Upon a Bagel (just for Gaobest )

Just wrapped up a weekend visit to see friends in Wisconsin and breakfast included popovers...yum! And we made a pitstop at a Wendy's for a Frosty, which is a rare treat we both love!

omg soooo awesome. Which skinny bagel flavors did you buy??
my favorite is the egg all-season (“everything”) which isn’t available as skinny.
