GLORIOUS FOODS in Postcards 4

I came home a week ago to Chinese takeout. Sunday night was meatloaf, a nice juicy, flavorful meatloaf. He did a little research amongst my old cookbooks, then he added minced chilies. Yes, it sure was good. We had Meatloaf sandwiches for lunch, and we had hot meatloaf with a salad. Marston’s dressing was a glorious addition to the crisp lettuce and tomato bits.

Noodles and cream cheese: A young lady from Russia showed us how to make this using equal parts butter and cream cheese. Melt them together and stir till smooth. Cook the noodles, and pour on the cream cheese mixture. Serve as a side dish to almost anything. Or by themselves.

Back to the Urals with cabbage, noodles, and Kielbasa for another dinner. Then he snuck in a chocolate Sunday which neither of us needed but was wonderful. Another entre was a Marie Callenders chicken pot pie.

Baked potatoes: We had one night with a plain potatoe with butter on it, and we had a second night with a full dressed potatoe with chili and cheese and sour cream. Neither nursing home nor senior living residence offered such fancy mouth watering fare.

Oh, I am so glad to be home.
