I am trying so hard to come up w/an idea and I know I will. Right now I have that fluffy stuff in my brain that makes it impossible to come up w/a dinner plan. I am going to try for a dish w/rice. That's a start. I'm off to search for a new recipe and will post my dinner later.
What's on your menu?
Have a great Tuesday everyone.

I think we're having the ham I put off from yesterday. Maybe with some potato or macaroni salad and a green salad. And a fruit salad.

Well, we were supposed to have pulled pork last night but it wasn't cooked by dinner time I'm using a different slow cooker because I'm at the condo here at the lake and I used pork loin instead of tenderloin (which I usually use) so those could have been contributing factors ... Regardless, I put it in the fridge and I'm going to cook the hell out of it today so that we can eat it tonight ... I'll serve a tossed salad with it Last night, I quickly threw together Chicken Caesar Salad so we didn't starve

Well, we enjoyed the ribs cooked in the Instant pot so much last week, the kids requested we have them again this week. So ribs, roasted potatoes and green beans are on the menu tonight.

I am trying so hard to come up w/an idea.... It's difficult to come up with dinners day after day. *sigh* We're having giant make-your-own salads. It's not really considered a dinner in my house, but that's what we're having.

Well, chicken soup did not happen last night (hot dogs did, which happen to be about 10x faster than soup) so maybe tonight. Of course, tonight may be the hottest night of the week rather than the coolest night of the week, too.

I'm taking my mom to my cousin's for a BBQ. My cousin's grands will be there, so I'm taking popsicles, or ice cream bars.

Week 2 of product testing, so we will have that, along with the remaining potato and pasta salads from Sunday. Or, people can have chips. I don't care! LOL

We are going to have burgers on the grill along with the left over potato salad and fruit from Sunday. It looks to be hot again here today. Happy birthday Trixie Bender!

I have some salmon marinating so we're having grilled salmon, the rest of the potato salad, a crispy green salad, and my fantastic cheesecake! I've got to stop eating a slice every day... the rest goes in the freezer tonight - my butt gets broader just thinking about it!

I do not know, it will be whatever they are serving at the hospital. Doc has decided that I need to go in for tests and whatever and I will be there at least until Friday.
So it looks like the practice DH has had with fending for himself is going to come in handy.
Talk to all of you later.

oldcrow , I refuse to "like" your post. I'm so sorry that you have to go into the hospital. At least you'll get answers and they will be able to treat you. If you can pea from the hospital I'll keep you company. BTDT a lot and it is not a fun place to be. I recommend ear plugs and a sleeping mask. My hospital leaves them in every room upon admittance. Wishing you quick answers and an easy fix to your health issue. Come here when you need to vent or just want a hug. OK, everyone. Let's keep oldcrow in our thoughts and prayers this week. Hoping you join us here very quickly, oldcrow.

Talk to all of you later. My Like means "sending you hugs," not "I like that you're going to the hospital" ... I guess (I hope) you know that. I hope you find some answers and feel better soon.

Lucy, I was typing as you were clicking the thumbs up, so I didn't see it until I finished my post. I would have deleted mine, because I didn't want to make you feel bad. I think we all knew your good intentions. I wish they had a dislike or prayers hands thing for us to click. Hey, maybe you could bring oldcrow some of your chicken soup.

Best wishes, oldcrow - I will be thinking of you. And Happy Birthday to Trixie Bender ! Yellow squash, brown rice, green broccoli, and some kind of sauce all mixed up. It all has to go in one skillet. And guacamole with stale chips I will not re-crisp in the oven. It's just too hot to even deal. And I am from Arizona originally - Ugh. Thanks for the thread.

My plan for tonight was thrown out because we have a late swim class and dh is going to a local community meeting that starts at 6:30. I have beef enchilada casserole sat in the fridge defrosting. We'll have that along with some sort of veggies.

When it is the boy and me, we eat quick and easy foods.
This evening all my effort will go into a blackberry pie. So, dinner will likely be a sandwich or bowl of cereal.
I get so tired of meat and potatoes and regular type meals. If I lived alone, I would probably live off of cereal.

When I lived alone and before the peas got me cooking again, I lived on Campbell's soup, grilled cheese, and smoked oysters (don't ask).

The same as yesterday is available. Tonight I'm going to have grilled bbq chicken tenderloins, oven roasted broccoli and green beans. I may run down to the farmers market and get some fresh corn...haven't decided on that yet though.

I have painted my living room for what seemed like hours today, and then I cleaned out the bunnies' winter hutches......so dinner was sandwiches today, since DH couldn't be bothered to cook (just as well, probably, he's a terrible cook, even worse than I am ).

We just got back from vacation Sunday night, and I managed to go to the grocery store yesterday and re-stock the fridge, so there is actually some edible food in the house! It's just me and DH tonight because DS is at band camp, so I got some ground beef to make a skillet dinner of some kind (one of DH's favorite things). I'll probably serve it with steamed fresh green beans. Happy Birthday Trixie Bender!
