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

Cooked carrots I wouldn't touch as a kid. Then I discovered slow cooker pot roast.
I put the carrots and the onions in their own spot on the plate and put a copious amount of butter on them to melt.
Goes right down ;)

And I love them in stews.
 
I got invited to a thanksgiving dinner couple years ago
Couldn't believe the amount of food.
We couldn't finish. We were 12+, host said at home, that would just be enough for the family of 5.
Mind you, it was 35-40 °C and we were more interested in the beer than the food
We had some issues understanding the pumpkin with marsmellow.....
Pumpkin is for savoury stuff, marshmellows for kids to put on a stick over fire

Oh it gets worse. At Easter they have these candies called "Peeps" that are made totally out of marshmallows in animal shapes. And they are sickeningly sweet. My mom used to buy them for us along with the chocolate bunnies and eggs, and I just couldn't stand the Peeps.


Edited to add that Thanksgiving is awesome because of all the leftovers. There are turkey sandwiches, soups, tetrazzini, etc. for days.
 
Oh yeah, and I don't know where all the moderators are today, but we are going to be in so much trouble. Especially me!

Okay so I finally got around to eating my breakfast (it's almost 2pm here) and it's shrimp with a lemon butter garlic and parmesan topping, wild rice, and broccoli. It's just as delicious as it was a couple days ago when I first made it.
