Happy birthday, Leanne. I have leftovers to eat here, if I don't get invited to my sister's house for dinner.

I don't know and I don't care......I have vertigo. So whatever DH fixes for me will be fine.

Just got back from taking our dog to the Louisiana Boxer Rescue Dog Wash. Pepper was the first to be washed today and he enjoyed every minute of it. He had the attention of all the ladies that were scrubbing on him and one lady was taking pictures. As soon as I get some off my camera and check their Facebook page, I'll try to post a couple.
As far as lunch/dinner, we have a couple of hot dogs left, cole slaw leftover and maybe some chips (or onion rings if DH wants to go to a neighborhood eatery and get some for you).

Trying a different dish tonight - Baked Pasta with Tomatoes and Parmesan. You don't cook the pasta first, you soak it in olive oil for 20 min, then bake with a can of tomatoes and add the parmesan when it's done. Sounds, umm, interesting and I figure I'm only out a little bit if it turns out nasty. We'll have a salad and maybe some garlic bread with it.

Sounds, umm, interesting and I figure I'm only out a little bit if it turns out nasty. We'll have a salad and maybe some garlic bread with it. That does sound interesting. I've seen recipes that cook the pasta in the sauce while cooking on the stove, but never in the oven. Let us know how it turns out. I haven't fully committed yet to tonight's menu. *sigh* I am in such a deep rut. I think it will be leftovers from Friday, but since there's not a lot, I will put a cornbread topping on it to stretch it a bit. I'll throw some green beans and cauliflower in to roast at the same time. Not sure about fruit. It may be a fruit-free night. Happy Birthday Eve, leannec!

Or I could bore you all with DH's & DS's complaints that the premade stuff I bought because I had no time isn't very good. Or how they had to eat salad at a band competition today because it's Passover but I'll spare you all the drama. Lol

I have been absent from these threads lately because with baseball season in full swing, we are never home and dinners haven't been anything to write about! Today, we have our annual baseball fundraiser at a local bar/restaurant. They donate a portion of all proceeds, including from alcohol, to our baseball program. I'm not sure what I will have- maybe fish tacos, fish and chips, steak bites, or filet sliders. Leaning towards something not on a bun or bread, though.

Happy birthday Leanne. Nothing is better than celebrating over several days. I'm making a wild rice and chicken casserole. We'll have corn on the cob with that. I also packed healthy lunches for the next three days. It's nice to just grab that Bento box on Monday morning.

It's cool and showery here today so we're having comfort food... pot roast, mashed potatoes and gravy, and probably steamed carrots and green beans. Oh, and fresh sliced tomatoes and cucumbers and potato rolls.

We're still on our date weekend. DH has gone out to pick up a pizza, and then we're going to a concert. It's sort of a birthday celebration, but his day was in January. leannec, does that mean we will be wishing you happy birthday for 3 months? caro, I hope your vertigo goes away quickly!

Can't wait for mine, it's almost done cooking. I'm having tomato basil sausage from my local market, a cauliflower/potato mash and asparagus with garlic butter.
