What We Ate On The Last Day Of Aught Eight

Love the idea Dee and it is great for me.  Look forward to you taking it on at your speed.  Luckily this isnot a competion and though we often measure sucess with numbers that pressure is an individual thing and I have been privately recommiting myself to weight loss for the next three months and to being prepared for when I can reapply to Walgreens in March.  I likely will not be able to close and button my suit coat by then.  I can already put it on though and the more weight I lose the less conspicuous my weight will be.  I am having my sage tea  this morning.  I will soon have a SlimFast Cappy.

Dear Nicholle:

Do you have a recipe for the Beef Wellington appetizers?

Dawn, You can get them at Sams Club.

Lisa

No, they were frozen little guys I bought from my "meat wagon" guys. (Yes, we have two guys who sell wholesale, high-quality frozen meat from their Sprinter van in our neighborhood. And it is delicious and cheaper than if I bought it at the store. I can't believe I do this, either!!!)

I DO have a recipe for a Beef Tenderloin en Croute that tastes the same, but it's a roast for dinner instead of appetizers. It gets rave reviews every time I make it. The recipe is in the "Great American Favorite Brand Name Cookbook," so it's nothing I invented. And it's easy!   Let me know if you'd like that and I will post it. I'll bet someone clever can adjust it to be able to make little appetizers.

Nicolle

Oh yes!!!  Please post the recipe. 
You know me.....I am always on the lookout for a good recipe.  Maybe I can figure out how to "downsize" it.
