Today I'm baking and getting things ready to go to the lake with my girlfriends tomorrow. I don't want to cook anything and leave a bunch of leftovers in my fridge so I'm having Kraft blue box mac & cheese for dinner What are you having? I'm going to be unplugged until a week from tomorrow so hopefully scrapmaven or leannec will take over until I get back There will be alcohol involved

It's pizza night here for the family, but I have a bunco gathering with the girls. I'm taking Rotel cheese dip with spicy sausage and tortilla chips.

I think I am going to make burgers on the grill and a macaroni salad.
I USUALLY don't cook on Friday's but, DH has been working out of town and eating out every meal so a little home cooking is what he is looking for.
School starts on Monday (ack!) so I need to get my butt in gear and get some meal planning done this weekend.

I'm not sure yet, but am watching CNN doing a story on all the food available at the Iowa State Fair. It is making me very hungry for junk food. And fried food. And funnel cake.

We have been away and eating out for a couple of weeks so I am really looking foward to homecooked meals again.
DH was fishing in Northern BC and my freezer is overflowing with salmon and halibut so I plan to finally grill some of it tonight along with the usual grilled vegetables (onions, zucchini, peppers & corn).

My husband and I are having a date night and trying a new restaurant. I've heard a lot of good things about it, so hopefully it'll live up to the positive reviews!

We ended up meatless last night, so leftover pork chops are front and center tonight. Sides are TBD.

My 15 year old niece is coming over for the weekend and I pulled out chicken tenders and I am going to bread those with some crushed up Cheezit crackers and oven fry them. I'll also pull some corn out of the freezer and use up the rest of the potato salad my mom sent home with me. I'm so excited for her to get here. Not only because I love her dearly, but also, she can hold the baby while I take a shower. One that lasts for longer than 3 minutes.

OOOOHHHH I am so jealous of all that fish in your freezer. I LOVE salmon, but don't get to have it very often due to the expense. Enjoy it!! I am going to make some kind of sautéed shrimp dish, I also have fresh corn and beets from our garden, not sure if they all go together, but if anyone has some shrimp dish ideas, I'd love to hear them! ...maybe some pasta would be good.

Usually, it's the side dishes that stump me, but tonight it's the main that's got me. I have the leftover sides from last night but no idea what they will be served with. Whatever it is, it will be something quick and easy that requires not much effort on my part. akathy, enjoy your weekend! ajsweetpea, Happy Birthday! I hope you enjoy your date!

Hot day here, I'm not in the mood for much cooking. I will get some chicken baked in a little while though to add to big lettuce salads tonight. I will probably add some cheese, crackers, and wine beforehand and call it good.

Oh how I would love to have your freezer! My family and I love salmon and halibut, but rarely get it fresh. We are having bean and rice burritos. I wish I had a catchy name for them because they are so good. My girls beg for them weekly.

Well, it's leftovers for us tonight. The fridge is bursting with leftovers. Whatever is not eaten tonight will probably get trashed this weekend. I hate wasting food, especially food that I worked hard to prepare.

Love the flavor, don't love breaded/fried stuff.)

Tonight I'm subbing at a bunco game, so it's whatever is being served there. I think it's my friend's turn, and she usually buys the heat and serve chicken fettuccine Alfredo from Costco. That stuff is really good.
Perhaps tomorrow I'll eat at home. Perhaps. LOL

We went to Costco this morning, so you all knows what means: chicken for dinner! and artichokes because the boy loves them. Actually, I do, too. Was anyone aware it's possible to walk into Costco intending only to drop off a Rx refill and pick up a chicken, and walk out $115 later? I am now. ETA have a great weekend with your friends, akathy.
