Last night I made one of my favorite dinners. Polish Kielbasa in BBQ sauce, over mashed potatoes. It sounds awful but my mom claimed to have "invented" it and it was really good, to my surprise. I slice the Kielbasa, fry it in butter so it is well browned, add BBQ sauce and simmer it until everything is good and hot, and pour it over instant mashed. I have this meal once or twice a year because I don't think it is particularly healthy. It's quick to fix, though, which is great. I should have eaten a healthy vegetable with it, but I made so much that I had trouble eating it all. But I did it!
Tonight we are having stir fry with cabbage, onions, bell peppers, and frozen stir fry veg, assorted spices, soy sauce, and maybe some steak in my portion. Usually I fix it with chicken, but I left a whole frozen chicken on the counter overnight by mistake. Actually, I thought of putting it in the fridge and then fell instantly asleep.
And now I want to know why roasting a chicken doesn't kill all the germs from leaving it out for too long. Not one website I went to explained that. My daughter was appalled that I even looked it up. Appalling her is one of my hobbies.
