Sounds good @winds-of-change
Iโm thinking about shrimp for dinner tonight too.

This time of year I eat a lot of homegrown tomato and cheese sandwiches. Itโs been a favorite of mine for 50 years.
I look forward to our first tomatos every year for that very reason
I am not sure what dinner qualifies as tonight. It is either take out or leftover take out chinese food, as it will arrive after a nine hour delivery/ road trip. SIL is coming for a visit and picked it up on her way through the really big city. It should arrive in about an hour.

My dinner was fine! After going out and about trying to scavenge some building supplies for my "in progress" chicken coop, I came home to dinner. Country classic. Pinto beans, fried green tomatoes, and cornbread. Really gets no better and sticks to your ribs!
That looks like something to tryTortas!
'Salvadorean-style':
- 1 large 'hoagie' roll, split & toasted
- Yer Fav 'Mayo' on 1-side
- Spread of Refried Beans (we like Blackies or Reds, best..) on opposite
- Griddle-sizzled Smoked Ham-slices (2-3, depending on size of roll used..)
- Griddle-sizzled 'Quesillo' (or Mozzarella) slices (again, 2-3, depending on size..)
- Diced-Rings of fresh Onion
- Thin-slices of fresh Roma or 'Beefsteak' Tomato (salted / peppered)
- Strip or two of Iceberg, lightly salted
- Avocado-strips (if you wish.. We Do! But just didn't have any, tonite, Derp..)
..And, obviously you 'Close this up before Eating'..
Very yummy, and Very Filling, yet quick and easy to make..Wash-down Great with an ice-cold Mexi Coca-Cola in Glass Only.. Buen Provecho, Urrrrrp!

Tonight the neighbor got introduced to "Sun Gold Cherry Tomatoes". She ate very one that was ripe.
She will feed the community cats when I move, I will set up a food delivery for her and the cats.

Cheese burgers on bread, steak fries.
Thank goodness!! I was worried about them! I hated to think about driving up there to do it!!
We were totless too!
Thought you might want to know... Last week in the little town i saw a sign for the new county wide animal shelter. There's never been one til now! A small one opened a decade ago but you had to prove you lived in the city limits to use it. County residents were barred. Changes taking place everywhere.
@SoJer that looks good, never had Tortas before.
Tonight i had chips, made a big salad and fried a catfish fillet. Too much salad, didn't finish my fish, it was a big fillet. Guess I'll have a catfish Po'boy for lunch tomorrow.
Well that didn't work out the way I was told. I was told they were bringing dinner.
It turns out they stopped for stuff and I had to cook it when they got here. So, hours later I'm still cooking. I am tired.
Tomorrow I have to make Pekin duck. Not how I envisioned the next few days.
Yep, they are Easy and yet Very-satisfying.. Prep-notes to add: Recommend to put the Mayo / Frijoles + Cholula, etc on the lightly-toasted bread, first - Then, once you've melted the cheese on the griddle, slap that on, Just before folding the Ham-up on top.. (Then the tomates, onion, etc, etc..) Just makes the 'assembly' quicker this way, and serves up Fresh n Hot.
Oh, man, LOVE me some Catfish.
And actually, I think you Could even sub-in a pan fried - but thinnish, so it doesn't end up Too oily, etc - filet of Cat for the Ham, in a Torta.. 
I'm Certain the Beans + Cat-juice flavors would complement well.. Maybe toss a bit of fresh Cilantro on top.. Sort of a 'PoBoy-Fusion'.. Aye, second only to dunkin' a Nice-fatty Grilled Cheese on Sourdough in an ample bowl of Tomato / Basil Soup..

The landlady sent me a half-gallon of tomato dumplings.
Salt, pepper, and real butter. I can't stand the sugar variation.

Think I may go have Mexican later. Not much in the mood to cook today
Making a couple of mini meatloaves with gravy, mashed taters and some kind of veggie!
Texas chili dogs. Peppers, Onions, no cheese.
Chicken and rice and fresh Michigan sweet corn
Shrmip fajitas and a bowl of bean dip. Washed down with a tall cold Dos Equies draft
Well, it is National Fajita Day! Saw it somewhere online today.
Picked up a 1/2 slab of ribs from the place down the road. They were excellent!! Their ribs are always good but these were perfect!
Cracker Barrel had the Friday fish fry and greens, wife had sirloin steak and eggs. It was delicious.

Takeout from the amish place. I had fried chicken, mashed potatoes with cream gravy, and corn.
Gaaah, I'm So mad at them for 'Deep sixing' Catfish from the menu..
WTHeck, CB?? Anyone have any idea Why in carnation they did that? Costs? (can't hardly believe That, I mean it's Catfish, not 'Mahi-Mahi', etc but..) 'Supply chain'? Something-something-Darkside-something? I mean, the Rainbow Trout (that seems to have 'replaced it') is certainly righteous and all but.. Man, I really enjoyed thier Cat-plates..
