Here in southern Maryland, this is a day where you feel like spring has finally arrived. As Zonker Harris would say,
Spring at last! Spring at last! Thank God Almighty, it’s spring at last!
For me, a quiche and a salad seem to go well with this sort of weather. Bacon, tomatoes, and fresh spinach in one quiche for my wife and me, and a bacon quiche for the Firebug who still doesn’t like veggies. 
Must be the weather we’re having. I’ve got a pork ragout on the simmer for the afternoon, to be served over polenta with a side salad for dinner.
Tonight will be BBQ Chicken quarters with mashed potatoes and mixed veggies. Celebrating the first sunny day in a bit.
Tonight will be leftovers from last night’s baby eggplants stuffed with lamb and pine nuts. Basmati rice and possibly another veggie side TBD
This will basically be a ragout with meatballs. Sunday gravy meats are supposed to be served on the side, but I break them up once they’ve reached fall-apart stage.
Calzone with sausage, pepperoni, minced garlic and mozzarella cheese; ice water; chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream and raspberry jam.
Sous vide New York strip & Asparagus wrapped in sous vide bacon with Parmesan and Garlic.
I made the Ukulele Lady sautéed mushrooms tossed with pearl barley and fresh herbs, and a piece of broiled pork tenderloin.
I had a small casserole of Southern macaroni & cheese (sour cream, cottage cheese, egg, hot sauce, Pepper Jack, and sharp cheddar) with a little sautéed ground beef and onions mixed in. Soo-PERB.
Roasted red pepper bisque and grilled cheese sandwiches last night. <3
On the menu later this week!
Last night- Flat iron steak with miso butter and soy glaze, along with salad and boiled purple potatoes with butter.
Tonight? No idea- probably leftovers.
Tomorrow night will be fajitas- skirt steak, Bolner’s Fiesta fajita seasoning, grilled onions and peppers, cook-at-home tortillas and probably some sort of Mexican-style rice or beans.
Last night was shrimp po’boys from the local Cajun cart.
Japanese curry, probably with chicken. Reading the curry thread made me realize I had a few more blocks of Japanese curry roux I need to use up, and a rather middling experience with some Japanese curry I had at a restaurant last week has me hankering for a decent batch.
Braised chicken thighs with artichokes and olives, garlic, white wine and lemon, from the Melissa Clark recipe in The NY Times. Using canned artichoke bottoms instead of whole sliced ‘chokes makes this an easy and excellent weeknight dinner.
Any link I provide will bring you slam up against The NY Times cooking app firewall, sorry. The NY Times is a real dick about its cooking app.
Sounds delicious!
Yeah, this guy is the real deal, Louisiana born and bred. Beans & rice, etouffee, jambalaya, gumbo and beignets. Good stuff.
Mac and cheese, ham with Dijon mustard, ice water.
I made a Taco Hell, er, Bell run - chicken and steak soft tacos, ice water, and cinnamon twists.
Minestrone and a turkey sandwich tonight, with a cupcake for dessert that I got from the local co-op which is decorated to look like a chicken’s head (it’s one of their annual Easter specials).
Oh no, I am sorry I found this thread. I have been salivating since I read the OP, but I give up meat for Lent. Easter can not come too soon.
I made myself a small pot of jambalaya with a chicken leg (thigh & drum), one rasher of bacon, and a hot pepper smoked sausage. Prudhomme recipe. Delicious.
I’m not recording the Ukulele Lady’s dinner any more. Bad enough I have to make two dinners, I ain’t writing them both up here.
