Tonight I'm going to make broccoli chicken with steamed rice. Dh will probably have a salad, too.
What's on your menu?
Wishing our little tribe a very easy and happy Tuesday.

Tonight is dinner out because it is our 42nd anniversary! We are going to a very good steak house that DH hasn't been to before (though I have for lunch). I'm looking forward to their Beef and Barley soup as an appetizer because it's one of the best I've ever had. Hope you are feeling better these days scrapmaven & jeremysgirl. Sending good Tuesday vibes to everyone!

I have bought steaks and loads of salad veggies, which will all come together to become dinner. I had planned to marinate the steak, but it is already 6pm and it hasn’t happened yet. Maybe I should get off my butt and get organised.
Fun day at kindy today - due to water damage in the room we usually use, we had to combine 2 groups; our English speaking group and the parallel German speaking group, which meant we had 15 kids, 3 careers and a couple of mums all together. As expected, chaos of a very fun type ensued.

teddyw I want to hearing your gate stayed shut last night and if the creepy feeling went away. **GypsyGirl** to quote The Grateful Dead "I will get by, I will survive." Things are alright. I woke up at 5 this morning and couldn't go back to sleep. My afternoon is really going to drag. But I came in early so I will getto leave a bitearly. I have a Home Chef box coming today. I will make what's in the picture for dinner. Tonight is DDs first night back to school. They have also increased her to ten hour days of work. She has been working on an indoor go cart track and they are behind schedule.

We have leftovers from the past 2 nights. I was hoping that Sunday's BBQ chicken would be tonight and last night's enchiladas would be tomorrow, but DS was extra hungry, so we don't have enough for all 3 of us to have again.

Happy Anniversay **GypsyGirl**!! Enjoy your dinner. Tonight is leftover chop suey from the graduation party. And probably a couple of egg rolls. Then that will be it for that stuff! Party went well, I had help wrapping the 100 or so egg rolls so that helped a lot! We had rain and thunder, but it was coming straight down so people stayed under the canopies and in the garage. It lasted about 2 hours and that was alright. We had about 40 people.

Dinner is up in the air. It’s National Night Out so I’m driving the 10yo over to the other house because his stepmom is running the NNO event at their clubhouse. I may stick around and eat there, but probably I’ll just push him out of the car as I drive by, and race home to be all by my introverted self for the evening. There’s still leftover pizza here. (The chicken pasta salad was a big hit last night. I made a giant bowl, but between me, the kid, the neighbor, and my sister and BIL ... it’s all gone now. Thanks for the idea, dinner peas.) sueg, that sounds so cute ... the English-speaking and German-speaking kiddos (and adults) all thrown together, to sink or swim. It’s making me smile. jeremysgirl, your dinner looks fab. **GypsyGirl**, happy anniversary! Your dinner sounds fab. cadoodlebug, safe travels. Wave as you drive past, ’k? scrappert, congrats to the girl! I’m glad the party was a success.

We hae a couple in our group who were entirely German speaking when they joined us, and now obviously understand when we speak English to them, and these are kids who are only 2 years old. Regardless of language, they play nicely together. I speak enough German to speak to the German speaking kids and their parents, so it wasn't too bad there.

For our dining pleasure this evening we will finally be enjoying that steak that has been on the menu so many times since Saturday.....last night it started raining as soon as I got home so neither of us wanted to start the grill and stand out in the rain and grill so it was moved to tonight and we enjoyed pork patties with beets last night.........
Happy Tuesday Everybody!

I am tired of throwing things out (1/2 can of beans, 1/2 can corn, leftover rice, etc.) so I am combining several little bits with some ground beef and that will be dinner. I'm hoping that no one asks what it's called, because the best I could come up with is Bits o' Crap in a Pot, and that doesn't sound very appealing.

All the steak talk is making me crave steak, but we are working on cleaning out the fridge, so chicken salad on a bowl of chopped Romaine is my plan. Happy Anniversary, **GypsyGirl** and mr.gypsygirl! I'm glad the rain didn't spoil your party, scrappert! I think we need a tribe get together to learn how to wrap egg rolls!

Happy Anniversary, **GypsyGirl**! Enjoy your dinner! ...but probably I’ll just push him out of the car as I drive by,.... I may or may not have told my children that was the purpose for the sliding door on mini vans.

Jeremy scrapped the dinner plan. DD has class tonight and DS said he wasn't hungry. So Jeremy decided to save steak for tomorrow. And he went to get tacos. I just blended up a watermelon margarita to go with. So apparently it is taco Tuesday here. teddyw I'm so glad no one messed with your gate. I hope you sleep better tonight.

We had Balinese Turmeric Coconut Chicken with rice. It would have been better if DSO had used the chicken thigh fillets in the fridge instead of the breast fillets, but beggars can't be choosers.

Heading off to cook now. It will be chicken breast on the grill, yellow rice and broccoli. I'll indulge DH and make cheese sauce since he's eaten broccoli in several dishes lately without complaint. It's not his favorite vegetable. For him it will be cheese sauce with broccoli vs. broccoli with cheese sauce. Happy dining to all!

I don't know what possessed me when I made my menu last week to add a mini Thanksgiving dinner on it. It's SO much work and makes such a mess. We had roast turkey breast, mashed potatoes, corn, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and rolls. But it sure was tasty.
