It is a New Year now and our New Year’s Eve dinner was
spaghetti with scallops and white wine, a salad and some toasted cheese topped
English muffins.
Last year did not end well for us; my daughter from my first
marriage had a bad stroke Dec. first and is in the hospital. It will be a
miracle if she ever gets to go home. She is just 55 years old. My wife and I were
happy that we had our kids and grandson here for the holidays; it helped cheer
us up.
Our son and wife went to see his half-sister at the hospital
that is an hour and half drive from here. The grandson stayed with us. They
came down here after dinner.
I made my cheese English muffins, butter and garlic
seasoning topped with some parmesan Ramona cheese and toasted under the
broiler. I had found the recipe for the spaghetti with scallops and white wine
at honnestcooking.com and changed it slightly. Instead of tarragon I used some
Penzey’s Tuscan Sunset seasoning and had some Swahili lemon pepper seasoning. I
got the seasoning from my wife’s cousin who works for WHO in S. Africa.
I did not get many pics of the cooking process; it went too
fast for this ole man! I will give a link to the recipe. My wife, daughter,
grandson and I liked the meal. The sea scallops were U12 I bought at Sam’s
Club. I didn’t get them browned like I wanted but they were not over done
either and tasted great!
After our meal we all settled down and watched football.
Later we popped some Amish white popcorn and had some drinks. We had a great
time. Our son, wife and grandson went home about 10:30. I managed to stay up
until mid-night to ring in the New Year. First time I did that in ages! I think
my wife helped me get to bed; the Tito’s vodka was going down well!
Right now I have my New Year’s good luck meal; pork and
kraut, cooking in the Crockpot. The kids are coming down for dinner, supper to
me. It will be a good times starting out the New Year!
I hope all of you have a great 2016; live in peace, enjoy
family and friends and eat some good food!

My solitary issue with Call of Duty 4 online is that it is so quick paced; individuals who want to be sharpshooters are at a genuine inconvenience, except if obviously you have very great reflexes and can Mega888 free slots run and hop while looking down a rifle scope. In the event that you haven't played Call of Duty 4 yet, lift it up and appreciate the best online play for both the XBOX 360 and PS3.
