I've been making a Lemon Meringue Pie for Christmas every year since she passed as a remembrance of her love of lemon. Last year I made Lemon Bars to take to my oldest daughter's home for our annual Christmas Eve Supper--Big Hit.

For Christmas Day supper I presented the lemon meringue pie and no one complained.

This got me thinking of my mother who is still with us.

I can't think of a dish that I would consider hers or her favorite.

She is a great cook and I have been blessed by that!

The trouble is is that she uses whatever is on hand to cook dinner.

The chances of that being the same from one day to another are minute and if they would happen to be the same those are against the odds.

The more I think of this though I remember the year we had not much more than old laying hens in the freezer. We ate great but I still don't care for chicken to this day.

When the day comes that might be the way to remember her is to try to make tough old chicken taste good.

In honor of the final season kick off tonight, and cause it’s been a tradition, and damn tasty. From the below cook book, which I LOVE, btw.






See you after it’s done.
Cooks at 400 for 40 minutes.
Dessert to be added!
Cheers!

Is this the correct recipe?

Yup, that’s it.

And for dessert,

Baked apples, also from the book.
And to wash it all down,

From the freezer, but on ice still.
Really good first episode!
Really good scotch blend too!

Cheese n sausage stuffed manicotti, with meat sauce and garlic bread.

This is a real Lyonnaise dish. Garlic sausage with lentils. The sausage. And duck were posted previously.

Oh my goodness, that looks delicious.

WHere’s the crusty bread to sop up all that goodness?

Mmm, damn that looks good, both dishes!

Ok here you go
Perfect ribeye 1 1/2” from my butcher, cut from the section I wanted, cooked to a perfect 114 degrees, asparagus with olive oil and mozzarella
Ice cold beer from my garage “ ice box” as old as it is it’s not a refrigerator.
My wife had her filet at 130. Medium rare

Oh forgot the asparagus was cut fresh 3 hours before serving

Oh my..! I can taste it from here.
