What did you cook or eat today? (November 2025)

[SandwichShortOfAPicnic]

Macaroni ‘cheese’ and pulled pork wraps. Very nice.
Would have preferred the sesame noodles today but they wanted more macaroni so the sauce can wait til tomoz when it’ll get a fair trial!

I have to admit, a Chinese takeaway is really good value for money.
Sunday, I bought 1 ration of fried rice, 4 egg rolls and 1 ration of prawn & pork lo mein.
Me and my son had a bit of each on Sunday night. He took another portion to the gym on Monday, and I had some for dinner.
I've just tarted up the lo mein (added a few veg and a few prawns I had languishing in the fridge, and my gardener is eating like a king.
...and I've still got some fried rice!

I love Chinese food. Whenever I get takeout, I always get 2 main dinners, and regardless, every time I get Chinese, I have to also get shrimp fried rice and crab rangoon, it's a law where I live. I always get at least 4-5 meals' worth of food out of it. It's always a great value for how much you get.

Did say it’s raining/snowing here in Cowboyville AZ?
This calls for a nice big bowl of comfort. Won Ton Deluxe.

Tinned peaches and spray cream
It was useful for trying some sample cutlery sets out on, interestingly the set that Mr SSOAP was totally sold on has dropped to bottom place in the rankings, if they hadn’t of done trial sets I probably would have bought it already!

This kind of looks like how I make my cornbread. I like my cornbread moist. I find that there are too many restaurants that have cornbread that's too dry. Is it supposed to be dry? Isn't cornbread a Southern thing? Do we need Barriehie to tell us how it's done? This cake looks so good and zesty.

I do it like this.

Potato and kale soup with a homemade ham broth. I used fried spam as the croutons.

Stir fry with shaved rib eye marinated with a little tamari, sesame oil, garlic and ginger, red/yellow/orange bell peppers, onions, and shiitakis with Ramen noodles, and a sauce of chicken broth, tamari, sesame oil, hoisin, garlic, ginger, white wine, cornstarch and white pepper. I did all the prep, Craig cooked.

Very colourful! If it tastes as good as it looks then it must have been great!

Interesting, looked up doner kebab, basically the same thing as Recipe - Gyro homemade! , just different spices.

Pickled pork and rice with some sambal. I made the rice in a pot on the stove instead of my rice cooker. It was *way* faster.

Food As Gifts:

Another jar of Pickled Red Onions for the next door neighbors.
Mrs. NDN had said how much she enjoyed the sliced Jalapenos I had put in the las batch of onions ...
Moi: you did? I can do more of that if you like
Mrs. NDN: yes please.
And she knows the rule now, you always return the container you get something in, or you don't get anymore of that!!
