Pity Dinner Components


No PD this week. Dory had an operation on her bum fin - get well soon! – so, we gave her the week off. I think we will pressure her to return next week, as crutches are no excuse for laziness.

Bubbles and I pick the menu and Dory is head chef. Every meal has a protein and starch. We generally have salad, but sometimes we add a hot veg, depends on the mood.

Frizz and C-pap supply all salad and Frizz is the salad chef. It is perfect job for her as she cuts the vegetables into beautifully equal pieces and always gets the best fresh stuff. We make sure to have an assortment of dressings ("Holy Dressings!") and toppings. One new favorite they found is a yummy Caesar and we also love Paul Newman's.

We set up the salad buffet and everyone gets to build their own perfect bowl. Some skip the olives, others skip the blue cheese... we allow for lots of independent expression - since the main course is decided  without an opinion survey!

Meal Seven : Pork Chops with Tomato Gravy

This meal had a few doubters at the start, but it was a big success.  Pork Chops with Tomato Gravy served over Cheese Grits ... southern goodness from a Yankee chef! The king kutter provided perfectly shredded cheese- as usual.

Meal Seventeen: Garlicky Pork Cutlets with Prosciutto, Lemon, and Sage

Repeat from many PD's ago ...   Garlicky Pork Cutlets with Prosciutto, Lemon, and Sage ...they came out perfectly thanks to a special early arrival of Piglet... some vacation time from work meant we got to enjoy his company all evening... sometimes Eeyore needs that support! Rounded out the meal with mashed taters and lima beans.  YUM!

Meal Five: Panko Crusted Haddock

Back by popular demand, the all time favorite ... Crunchy Fish!  The original recipe gets modified from cod to haddock and this sauce is fabulous.  Go for the regular mayo and make it the night before... YUM!  Squirts had a headache, so we missed him at the table, but saved him some dessert....
