What's for Dinner, Thurs., Sept. 11, 2025 [View all]

Time to raid the pantry for emergencies: plumbing disaster at my house. My plumber is here, tearing out ceilings. Stairwell wall, also. It's the worst possible place for a leak, the pipe for which had to have broken sometime in the middle of the night. I awoke to water dripping in the living room as I walked out of my bedroom.

Hey, it's what comes with living in a 175-year old house.

I have Paneer Butter Masala (creamy cottage cheese curry) that can easily be made for this evening. It's a prepared meal that I bought for such times. It has tomato, cottage cheese, onion, butter, cashews, cream, garlic, green chili, and coriander. A little fenugreek.

I also have an emergency store of water, so I can wash broccoli and carrots for a vegetable dish.

Kombucha: pineapple.

Dessert will be chocolate cream pie.
