Your meal sounds great. I just heated up more of my son's leftovers.........yahoo, no cooking.

Shirley

No new ideas here. I'm still working on the refrigerator. Tonight it will be Fish chowder. Yum.....and I don't really have to cook. It will taste even better!

My dh is at a casino playing poker so me and the kids are going to hit Panera.

Well, aren't we all lucky ladies tonight! I think we've all cooked our brains 'til they're fried ;-) May we all have many, many easy nights ahead!!

Chicken and dumplings here....I've asked DD to come so it's and incentive to me to cook something. We'll have coleslaw as our salad, and there is a lot of sweet stuff for dessert.

Virginia Tech has their bowl game tonight, so we bought some frozen pizzas to munch on during the game.

So far we aren't doing so well... :(

grilled strip steaks, salad, potatoes.

Chicken soup with rice and vegetables. It's bubbling on the stove as we speak and it smells soooo good!

OUT my first time since Monday.

Hartley's Down Home Cooking: They have hired a new cook and he fries the best catfish filets, so that was what I had.

Heard a man at another table after he tasted their peach cobbler, and he said he hadn't had one like that since his grandmother made one.

As I left the man was back at the counter talking to the new cook :o)

That was all I wanted as I've been munching way too much on snacks from my place and I still had that full feeling.

I am making a beer butt chicken, leftover potatoes are coming together to make home fries with bacon, tomatoes as the side dish or cheesy tomatoes if we want the extra oomph.

Phyllis, that sounds nice and warming. Think it's perfect for a cold night in MN.

Teresava, good luck with your game!

Well, I've done it twice this evening--posted, previewed and forgot to hit "Submit". I'm seriously getting a little worried about my brain.

Raven, as usual, your dinner sounds scrumptious!

Mamatoad, my mother made the best chicken and rice soup. It was my brother's favorite so she made it often for him. I don't recall her putting vegetables in it, but she may have. I think we all need a good warming up tonight.

Glad you got out, Glenda. It's so unlike you to be home for so long--and the catfish sounds really good. I would've caved in and had that peach cobbler though. :-)

Cwnev, those potatoes sound so good and so do the tomatoes. I'd opt for the plain tomatoes though. I love them. I've made beer butt chicken but it's been a long time. Remember it was really tender, though. Enjoy!

We met DD#2 downtown at a pizza joint, we had half veggie/half gobs of meat for DH and DGD. Then we walked around the Mission Inn, they are very famous in So Cal for their Christmas lights. DGD (4) loved it we had to walk around twice~~~we have had so much fun with her these last 2 days and I have not had to cook;) I am taking her home tomorrow and I am not cooking tomorrow night either;)

I am on a soup kick. Tonight I made broccoli cheese soup again from Pioneer Woman. Only thing different was I added some Sherry and it was awesome.
