Well, my first blog is about two meals. One I only kinda helped with and one I made practically by myself! Last night (01/04/10) Grandma wanted some real food so she fried country steak, or something like that. She floured cubed stake and fried it in the skillet. Meanwhile I peeled and cubed Idaho potato's (cutting my thumb in the process) and put them on to boil. The end product of the night was Country fried steak with mashed potato's and gravy. It was amazing!
Today I took Mom to ORMC for her doctors appointment and on the way out she must have read my mind because she suggested that we have spaghetti for dinner, yum! I always love me some spaghetti but I had been wanting it for the last week or so. So on the way home we stopped at Publix and picked up noodles, and the salt-free ingredients to make spaghetti sauce and ground beef as well. (Because of the iodine treatments Mom can't have and salt, or something like that.)
When we got home Momma left me to the kitchen (giving instructions from the living room :D) I made the sauce, we used diced tomato's, crushed tomato's and tomato puree, all salt free, combined them in a pot with garlic and kosher salt (which is okay because it doesn't have and iodine) as well as some Italian seasoning. We only put a tad in each but as things progressed we added more because it tasted too tomato-y.
The end result, Spaghetti with meat sauce and toasted french bread with garlic butter. Mom praised over and over again *blushes* and I think Dad enjoyed it. Now to top the whole experience off I have a lovely chocolate eclair from the Publix bakery!
