Hey everyone! We had a great time at my bff's place last night ... they made pork tenderloin in a really yummy sauce made with maple syrup, chicken stock and a bit of adobo sauce ... sounds weird but it was so good Dh had a bit too much wine so I had to drive home ... I usually hate driving with him in the passenger seat because he is a terrible backseat driver but he actually said that I'm not all that bad ... could have been the alcohol talking We have invited my mum and MIL over tonight for roast beef, potatoes, gravy, Yorkshire Puddings and some sort of veggies ... my mum is bringing a pie Your meme for today represents my thoughts this morning when I got up before 7am because I couldn't get back to sleep What's on your menu tonight?

It's just me and DS for dinner tonight. I'm going to keep working away at my blanket. I have four rounds to go. At this point though the blanket is so huge it is taking me a long time to go around each time. I'm trying to finish it for my sister for Christmas.
I will be having a sandwich for dinner. I'm thinking a little turkey, some havarti, avocado, tomato, and a little avocado ranch dressing all shoved in a pita pocket. Then I'm going to make some chex mix.

I am preparing a huge meal for Thanksgiving this year. All the kids requested their favorites and I am making a ton of food. But it will just be DH, me, our 5 kids and my MIL. I have invited my ex husband and his wife to come too. But chances are they won't come. I am debating posting on Facebook that we have an over abundance of food and we would welcome a few more people to share our meal. I am wrestling with this idea. I have been stalking Facebook to see if anyone mentions they will be alone for the holiday but no one has said anything.

We’re having a beef sirloin tip roast with mashed potatoes and a garlic broccoli cheese casserole. I’ve never made a sirloin tip as a roast before so we shall see. The recipe says it should come out similar to prime rib in taste and texture. We shall see...

Dh's little virus relapsed. His go to sick food is chicken strips from the grocery store deli or McDonalds, two places he never eats regularly. So, that's dinner.
I'm about to start my macarons. Crossing fingers that they aren't a mess.
Have a cozy and happy day.

I'm tutoring a couple students this afternoon and then I'll pick up a pizza on the way home. Still fighting the last of my cold and pizza, hot and salty, sounds good.

Not that it's hard to make, but Meijer has little packets of Chex Mix seasoning for a nickel this time of year. On an endcap with Chex cereal.

We’re having sweet Italian sausages with peppers (red, yellow and orange) and onions on sub rolls. I won’t pretend there will be anything remotely healthy served along side these sandwiches.

We ended up having salmon last night that was its usual yummy self. All our favorite teams won their games so we were happy. I might fix short ribs tonight or chicken tortilla soup. Waiting for Black Friday sales to snag an Instant Pot for a bargain.

I went to Swiss Chalet for lunch with a group of friends. Had the 'festive special' and ordered a side ceaser salad. Had them box the salad for me. Dinner tonight is the left over chicken with the leftover roll and ceaser salad. I still have the Lindt chocolates for dessert!

We're having creamy chicken enchiladas and mexican rice. The enchiladas were in my freezer and the rice is out of a package. I'm saving my cooking for later in the week.

I went out for dinner to a local brewery with the mums and kids from my Mothers Group, for our 20 year anniversary. We got originally together when our first babies were born, and now here they are turning 20! I couldn't make up my mind between 2 of the entrees, so I ordered both! Mac & Cheese croquettes with Jalapenos and aioli Salt and Pepper Calamari with chilli jam and lime After about 15 minutes the waiter came to tell me that the calamari was still in the ocean so I had to order something else. I went with the Southern fried chicken with chipotle mayo.

I made Taco Lasagna that someone linked the other day. It used lasagna noodles, so no issues with slimy tortillas, which is usually the problem with layered Mexican dishes.
