p.s. tip: for those of you starting holiday baking and in driving distance of an Aldi's, 1 lb. packages of butter are on sale for $1.99. Limit 6. I bought my 6.

2. Just made some soup

Cauliflower/Carrot/Vermont cheddar……will have it with a green salad, oil and red wine vinegar dressing and toasted Naan. Lemon water. Unfortunately, no dessert unless I talk myself into a couple of Fig Newtons.

I always enjoy your daily posting. Thanks so much.

3. Cupboard clean-out

Split yellow peas cooked in canned coconut milk with onion, and little cinnamon, curry powder, and maple syrup. Pork sausage crumbled and seasoned up spicy. Broccoli.

8. Looks wonderful!

I’ve always wanted to try making pasta. How did you do it?

12. I have an attachment for my Kitchen Aid Mixer

I use semolina flour for the dough, which makes the pasta extra delicious.

13. Nice!

We got both my nieces Kitchen Aids for Christmas last year, will have to ask if they have the pasta attachment. If not, that would make a great gift for this year! The younger one (22) loves to cook and that would be something fun we could do together.

7. Cabbage rolls

I had taken a huge dish full to the church potluck, but there was enough left for the three of us to have for dinner, so we had that instead of the chicken I'd planned to make. Also steamed broccoli with butter and lemon, and garlic bread made with Bosnian rolls, which are the size of softballs, which I split and buttered.

9. Yum!

My Grandma used to make cabbage rolls (halupki) and even though I have her recipe, am scared to make them because afraid they just won’t taste the same.

Those rolls sound divine! The bigger, the better!

11. Pasta

Spaghetti with a homemade tomato and basil sauce. We had half a dozen breaded shrimp leftover from last night so they got reheated with mozzarella on top. Caesar salad and Chianti. Orange slices and “My Fair Lady” for dessert.
