What’s for Dinner Tonight?

Last night was my last on my own so I wound up just mixing a quick tuna salad because I actually did some cooking for the inlaws after ducking it all week. Made a sizeable batch of spaghetti sauce to portion off and freeze and pulled out some of the chicken I recently roasted and also some of the stock I made to pull together a large pot of chicken soup. I'll pick up some pastina this weekend to add to it so I can get that set for their freezer as well.

DH is home tonight so I planned salmon with parsley potatoes and asparagus. Not sure if I'll go lemon dill or miso maple with the salmon, but I can sort that out last minute.
 
Going to start cooking dinner in a little bit.
It’ll be swordfish cooked in salsa minus the taco shells with sliced avocado and hearts of palm . Serving in pita for BF as I didn’t see any tortillas and atop a bed of green salad for low carb doing me. Too many “crazy women” in the house for her hubby; he’s gone to visit his parents so we can whoop it up like old times.
 
Last night was steamed dumplings and broccoli for the resident 8year old. DH and I noshed at happy hour then DD/SIL went out for supper once we got home to babysit.

Tonight will be pizza, either take-out or eat-in. We are doing the final cleaning on DD's "new" house (she purchased in August and we've been fixing up ever since) as the movers are coming on WEDNESDAY. :cool1::sad:
Although the furniture will go on Wednesday, there will probably be a week or 2 of slowly schlepping all their stuff and boxes to the new place, before they are finally moved out. We sure are going to miss them, but I THINK we'll be happy to be empty-nesters again. Not sure... it's gonna be a big adjustment for everyone.
 
made I a focaccia bread. It was just ok,
Looks good from this end but practice always make perfect eventually😎.

Lord, if I wasn’t sure before I know I’m in Germany now: dinner was fried Matjes herring and boiled potatoes w/ parsley. Tasted good but not a lifelong dinner for me 😊. Fortunately, a bottle of kirschwasser was on the table 😂
 
Back home......nothing for dinner in the house. I will go grocery shopping, unpack, do laundry tomorrow. Back to life, but we had a wonderful time and the ship is beautiful!!

We ended up digging in the freezer and had egg rolls, pot stickers and Yakisoba.
Back to better eating now.
 
Was requested that I make a “real American meal” tonight so it’s fried chicken, quick pickles, French fries and coleslaw. Markus is back from visiting his mom and happy to know the house is still standing and there’s a meal he wants to eat, 😜.

Decided that I’m going back home on Thursday. The Swiss have a full agenda and scolded me for not giving them more notice initially and my German friend’s son will be home soon for the asparagus festival and I’d like them to spend the time exclusively with him. It’s all cool; finally made it here and my fears and concerns haven’t been realized : I can return whenever it’s good for all.
Tomorrow, we’re going flea marketing in Brussels so I may need another suitcase, lol.
