    Welcome Krissttina. We have always liked spam. Your recipe is interesting. I've never used oyster sauce or chili sesame oil. I would likely use a stir-fry sauce and for heat some Tabasco sauce or powder.

    We are having a late lunch/early dinner today. We made our monthly trip to Sam’s Club this morning, and one of the things that they had on sale was bacon. We have not had any for a long time; but it was $4 off , so we bought some, and our meal today was BLT with cheese and pickles on a toasted bun, and it made a perfect early dinner for us this afternoon.
    Sam’s club has some items that are cheaper than we can find elsewhere; but some things are cheaper at either Walmart of Kroger, but everything that we buy at Sam’s is always excellent quality.

    We had grilled cheese sandwiches and cream of chicken soup. Sweet potato pie for later. I think it's getting close to later now.

    We went out this evening as is our custom on Mondays. My wife ordered the liver and onion plate with mashed potatoes and gravy and veggies. We were both chilled because it's so cold out so we also ordered coffee for me and cocoa with whipped cream in mugs. Excellent way to warm hands on the hot mugs and warms the inside too.

    I ordered the open face turkey sandwich with with gravy and baked potato and veggies. Sounds like home cooking doesn't it? The chef is an excellent cook, the restaurant ambiance is quiet and comfortable and we are never disappointed. The prices are very reasonable and would you believe the restaurant is in our downtown casino? We've lived here twelve years before we discovered this haven.

    I have NO clue what any of that is, @Holly Saunders ; but it all sounds interesting, for sure.
    We had a late lunch/early dinner of BLT with cheese again. It just seems to be something we are enjoying right now, and I took the second package of bacon back out of the freezer to thaw.
    We still have some of the apple pie that we splurge on once a month when we go to Sam’s club, so that will probably be a snack for later. It is supposed to be even colder here tomorrow, so I am going to make some cabbage soup for tomorrows main meal.

    Tonight supper is a big bowl of my fresh made chicken-vegetable soup, a hamburger with pimento-cheese spread, and a couple my special baked potatoes (plenty of butter, melted blue cheese, and horseradish sauce).

    I made a big pot of vegetable beef soup which we've been eating for three days. Still enough left for a couple of meals but we put that in the freezer for another day.
    Tacos today. Made with meat, cheese, and guacamole.
