Ever since I was a kid, that was my favorite combo - tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches. Sounds delicious!

Made roasted tomato soup, will have grilled cheese with it later. A friend has three tomato plants, giant tomato plants 6-7 feet tall. She has had more than 200 tomatoes nice ones too! I now have three quarts of soup, will take some to her.

Dinner was at midnight by microwave.
Baked potato, topped with a can of chili, and cheese.

Top Sirloin steak is my favorite with baked potatoes, sour cream and chives. So jealous that I cannot get invited over for dinner!

Llama, I get New England Coffee, Blueberry Cobbler and it actually taste like a cup of blueberries. I love it.
NobodyGetsIt, I do not make blueberry coffee, I do not have the time to roast those babies. LOL. I get New England Coffee, Blueberry Cobbler flavor.

NobodyGetsIt: That temp makes me hot thinking about it. Bring on winter. I do not own a sweater. I am boring as I don't consume vino, red meat nor pastry. The Baby was a decade ago.

Having almond butter after buying it for my emergency kit. An appetizer on celery, it did not taste as good as I expected, but hubs likes it.

Have no idea for a real dinner yet. But it's going to be late as the heat dissipates.

"cwillie," - that's exactly what I told one of our frequent waiters when I ordered pumpkin pie along with telling him "it's much healthier for me than the other pies" wink, wink. He did ask if I wanted it with whipped cream and of course I said "yes."

"earlybird," - I love blueberry waffles - those were both my dad's and my favorite kind. We have the Brummel n' Brown which is made with 10% non-fat yogurt and 35% vegetable oil - my mom got me hooked on that a very long time ago.

Blueberry coffee??? Never heard of that - is that something you just make yourself?

Ahhh, pumpkin pie - it all sounds good!

I love pumpkin pie for breakfast earlybird! (and it's a vegetable so what could be healthier 😉) Of course I only get pumpkin pie once or twice a year.

Pizza, strawberry shortcake and wine were all enjoyed thoroughly!

114 is brutal and I'm ready to be done with it - no monsoon for us this summer!

Your wise to have the Baby Apple - the one I get almost overflows the restaurant's large plate. I like it with their Lingonberry butter but, they have ones with cinnamon apples, maple-caramel apples, strawberries or triple berries.

NobodyGetsIt: Enjoy your pizza, strawberry shortcake and vino. Glad that you got to see your mom. 114° is brutal.

I never had the Big Apple - never got past the Baby Apple.

NobodyGetsIt's Kitchen is closed for the night!

After doing a "window visit" with my mom for 1/2 hour in 114 degree weather as I watched her get a special treat of vanilla ice cream with a still warm, fresh baked chocolate chip cookie neatly tucked into the ice cream, I'm cooked!

We will be having pizza from a different place - I always like trying different pizzas because even if we order the same toppings all the places are unique! I will serve wine and strawberry shortcake - I think I can muster up enough energy for that!

Bon Appetit :)

There was a restaurant in New England that served a Baby Apple and a Big Apple. I used to get the Baby Apple, which was very much like the Dutch Baby and was served with whipped cream.

Those Dutch Babies sound awesome,kinda like a puffed pastry.I bet they're really good~Thanks cwillie~

A dutch baby should puff up and be airy kind of like a cross between a souffle and a popover. I took an online recipe and cut it down to a single(ish) serving, so I used two eggs, 1/3 cup each milk and flour - I guess either the proportions were off or my oven wasn't hot enough 🤔

I'm making gluten free fried chicken. New recipe but excited to see how it turns out! Great topic, too. Thanks for the "break" from heavy stuff. :)

@ "Sendhelp,"

I thought the same thing when it came to "cwillie's" peach dutch baby and from my memory (which isn't always great) I thought it was rather flat in the middle and slightly curved upwards around the edges. They look like what I ordered at one of our favorite breakfast places (prior to COVID) but, they called theirs a german pancake with different fruit toppings. They were huge and very popular.

Also, thank you for the nice compliments on my post/dinner - I don't think our landlord would appreciate "everybody" coming over though! :)

I've never seen Downton Abbey but, have heard of it - sounds like it would be funny.

Cwillie,
I looked up the peach dutch baby recipes. They did not look like they were meant to rise very much at all. Maybe it is not your cooking afterall.

NobodyGetsIt,
What a wonderful post, and a wonderful dinner is planned! You are amazing, reminds me of another poster we once had on here.

Everybody is going to want to come over tonight for dinner!

I was just re-watching Downton Abby and the kitchen cook, Mrs. Patmore was aligning herself with the cook, Mrs. Bird to make wonderful meals for the Granthum family.

Tonight's menu will be Top Sirloin Steaks topped with French's fried onions, baked potato with butter, sour cream and chives, sauteed sliced red peppers and sliced zucchini, whole berry cranberry sauce, corn bread muffin, the watermelon I forgot to serve with last nights dinner and mini chocolate cakes with walnuts and whipped cream. Oh yeah, probably a glass of Cabernet!
