What a temperature change. Yesterday, when I was at the farm bringing back the plants (for our upcoming hard freeze) it was 80 degrees. Right now it's 42.
Last weekend we had meatloaf (our healthier version made without ground beef, using ground turkey, ground chicken and Italian sausage, and lots of minced vegetables. A side of green beans and a salad to start, it was delicious. Today, we're having pozole verde and homemade corn tortillas. Warm and comforting.
Hobart is gearing up for the Daytona 500 by doing what he does best, dozing off. Here he is on one of his warm blankets because...

Regular readers know that we are fans of racing, NASCAR in particular. And today is opening of the season with the Daytona 500. The weather is sketchy at best, so we're not sure if it will even happen or make it to the halfway point (the point at which they can call the race with whoever is in the lead). In years past, it had been postponed to Monday due to weather.
We shall see.
You have very well-traveled plants. Do they bring you souvenirs?
ReplyDeleteI didn't think that race would ever get over with. I dozed off when they was showing last years race.
ReplyDeleteJust the other day Hubby was requesting meatloaf being we haven't had it for awhile.
I usually triple my batch, ( when I can that is) and make into individual meatloaves so that I have some in the freezer for future use.
Man oh man, the price of eggs have really gone up. I used to pay just a little over $3.00 for a carton of the 18 count of the large eggs. They are now over $8.00 for same size carton. I did break down and bought me a couple of 18 count cartons, of which them I will freeze. Yes, you can freeze gees but NOT in the shell.
Just drop an egg in each compartment of an ice cube tray and with a tiny pinch of salt, sprinkle on top of the yolk. Once frozen solid, remove eggs from tray and place eggs in freezer safe container.
Eggs are easier to remove when using the Silicone Ice Tray Molds. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BHKCZZR7?tag=track-ect-bing-usa-7388-20&linkCode=osi&th=1
You both take care, stay safe and do stay warm.

Delicious looking meatloaf! Yum.
ReplyDeleteHobart sure knows how to live the good life!
Hopefully after this freeze, your plants can stay home at the Farm.
