I know...it is 91 today...but everyone in this house is getting sick of grilled whatever.
Today,............Good Old Fashioned POT ROAST for supper. The whole nine yards....potatoes, celery, carrots, onions! And it smells so good. And a little fresh dill and parsley for the finish.

I'm thinking of making tacos (Mom's old-fashioned recipe).

I know the feeling! Been grillin' & smokin' for months!
Got a pot roast in the oven right now (Emeril's recipe with beer), gonna serve it with cheesy polenta.
Didn't think of the dill finish, but will now!
Thanks!

I hear ya. I risked using the oven yesterday and made chicken parm (Tyler Florence's most excellent Ultimate recipe). It was nice to make a pan of food for a change.

Don''t forget, leftover pot roast makes good burritos.

SWMBO's making cioppino (squid, shrimp, clams, cod -- no mussels since I'm the only one that likes them) and a fresh loaf of sour dough...
3 TBS. olive oil 1 large onion, chopped 2 bell peppers (red and green), chopped 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 can stewed and seasoned tomatoes 1 cup red wine, Zin or Burgundy 3 cups V8 Herb Pouch (bay leaf, parsley, and basil) Salt and pepper to taste Parsley, chopped
Sauté onions and peppers in olive oil; add in garlic and stewed tomatoes. Reduce juice and finish adding Herb Pouch, V8, and red wine. Cook seafood together and serve hot. (For a kick, add some fresh Serrano pepper or pepper flakes.)

Since I am still basically "kitchen-less" we've been eating out a lot (gets tiresome) and worse yet, what I've been eating at home has been off paper plates. What a HORRIBLE way to eat. Ugh. Just depressing! I don't know why anyone would voluntarily use them for anything other than the occasional picnic? Tonight I cooked in a large electric skillet and made a curried meatball and rice dish, with a big huge salad using my own grown Roma tomatoes. Some big bowls to wash with the skillet though. My husband has been using the bathtub upstairs to wash dishes in. I take 'em out to the deck and use an open cooler as a "sink" and heat water in the microwave (along with the cold water hose) to wash out there. Refrigerator gets delivered tomorrow! Electricians also come tomorrow and finish the under cabinet lighting, hang the pendant light and microwave hood. I wish the counters/sink would hurry up so I'd have water in here too! The new range and dishwasher sit in the garage waiting to go in also. I'm getting impatient.

No laugh. He's been retired a year now, he doesn't show any sign of slowing down with the making dinner thing. That's okay, fall's coming, I'll be demanding my kitchen time.

I was just now wondering how your kitchen was going.

Even for tailgating, I use the plasticy type, not paper. Blech. Paper is almost as bad as those wooden ice cream spoon ... things. Sets my teeth on edge.

Man, I have a zillion of them.

It'll come together all of a sudden and you will be very happy.

I know just how you feel! We were shopping today and my husband noticed the trend: I was veto-ing anything that would be cooked on the grill! lol We ended up getting something that will be done on the grill, just not tonight. Tonight will be a quick chicken stir-fry with snap peas, green beans, asparagus, and water chestnuts. I can't wait!
