Gonna be brewing up chicken picatta - thin chicken filets in a seasoned flour coating, with a lemon/butter/wine sauce & sauteed mushrooms. On the side - wild rice & yellow squash, probably steamed.

I realized I'm out of white wine, so I'm going to substitute Woodchuck Cider. I've used weirder substitutions in a pinch, and they've worked out surprisingly well.

Damn, Phee. Sounds like you got some cookin' skills goin' on there, Boyo. Sounds tasty.

I ended up motivated to clean the house, take down Halloween decorations & put up Fall/Thanksgiving decor. So too busy for the picatta. Made some pre-made chicken & portabella mushroom ravioli with angel hair pasta & Ragu sauce.

Besides homemade, the only canned sauce we can stand is good old traditional Ragu - meat or mushroom flavor.

Leftovers tonight.

No Bake Cookies

melt: 2c sugar

1/2 c. mini marshmellows

1/2 c. REAL butter, not margarine

1 t. vanilla, which I always seem to forget!

1/2 c. whole milk

3-4 T. unsweetend cocoa if you want chocolate cookies

Boil for 2 minutes....do not stir while its boiling-don't worry, it will not burn or stick to your pan!

Completely remove from heat-that means if you use an electric stove move the pan off the hot burner.

Add: 1/2 c.crunchy paenut butter

3 c. quick oats, the kind that cook in 1 minute not 5.

After it's all mixed together quickly drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper. Let cool by room temp.

Chinese New Years

We make these during the Holidays. My mom made these, we asked "what are they?" she said, "uhhhh, Chinese New Years!"

Later my brother and I called them Chinese Boobies because some of them had a nipple type shape. HUSH!! We were only like 10 or so. :grin:

12 oz. chocolate chips

12 oz. butterscotch chips

12 oz. Chow Mein noodles

In a large microwave safe bowl melt the chips in 1 minute intervals, stiring until smooth. Add the Chow Mein noodles slowly until most of the mixture is absorbed. Drop by spoonfuls onto wax paper and let set.

As a variation, use the instructions above and

12 oz. chocolate chips

12 oz. peanut butter chips

peanuts

I don't know how many peanuts i used because i used up what I had in the house.

I've also added raisins which is also very good.
