Tonight was ham steak, mashed potatoes, mixed vegetables and iced tea.

grilled hotdogs and hotlinks , Opened a can of pork and beans and threw BBq sauce in it ,, I kept it simple.

I read an article waiting at the doctors office today that says if you plan your meals in advance, not just right before you go home to fix them, that you'll eat healthier and will eat less.

I fixed chicken with rise, green peas and baked Johnny a sweet potato. We had it again tonight and the chicken and rice was better than last night.

Johnny came home early today and I wasn't here. When I got home he had fried chicken wings, made potato salad (by himself) and cooked some vegetables on the grill. I am stuffed like a Christmas goose.

You have a good man there Sheri!!!

wow, sheri! that's cool.

we are having cereal for diner. I'm not cooking again. I cooked two meals already today, and tomorrow will be a big cooking day. 'Me is on holiday tonight'!

don't blame you one bit Cricket. The food was great and I'm still full but I had to do the cleaning and there was grease everywhere. Frying chicken makes a mess.

ah the cleaning from fried chicken--THAT is the main reason I do not fry chicken. I oven fry it----not as good but not bad either

and why is it that men think they've done such a GREAT service by cooking but then they don't clean up afterward? did they miss a meeting? cleaning up is PART of cooking, right??!!
OK....I'll go to bed now before I get myself in trouble.

yep cricket I agree. when you are right, you are right---

I had better get out of her too --g'night

Oh, I dunno, Cricket.

When I was married to Maxi's dad, we took turns. If I cooked, he would clean up. If he cooked, I would. Whoever wasn't doing the clean up would mop the floor & make the coffee and get us all set up for our evening activities. We thought whoever cooked should be off the hook for the clean up.

But at my sister's house, after she had cooked, my brother-in-law would get out his guitar. The whole family would stay in the kitchen, singing, and helping my sister with the cleanup. They'd get done in record time and be able to sit with the coffee together.



I guess different things work in different homes.

I use a splatter screen over the pan when I fry chicken so I don't get the mess.

Tonight we had...

Chicken soup and turkey sandwiches and Cheese Doodles.

Not too unrepectable, considering Friday night is my low point of the week.


Merme

Tonight it is only 56 degrees here, so I'm having scrambled eggs w/ cut up small bits of spicy Italian sausage in them, toast, and diet Orange soda.


Merme

I was gone all day, so tonight we had hamburgers & buns, leftover mashed potatoes, cooked onions, & sliced tomatoes.--I had some Snapple green tea

PS the cooked onions were for on the bun--the sliced tomatoes were served as a side dish.

Tonight is pork & beans with a big dab of mayo and a small handful of finely chopped onions served over a piece of bread on a plate. YUMSVILLE!!!!

for some reason, merme......that actually DOES sound good.
(I'm thinking I'd go with toast instead of bread though?...hhhmmmmm)

yep, merme, give me some of those pork & Beans, a piece of white butter bread and a salt shaker.---I like that, myself.

---gee you are making me hungry!!!!

Tonight is Shrimp Scampi . Angelhair Pasta with seasoned Petite chopped tomatoes in a marinara type sauce, on the side was Chicken piccata with artichokes and capers.
And It was Cooked for me when got home from work. By my out of state company. Gotta LOVE that!

sounds like a especially good supper, Diane--not to mention a very nice surprise !!!

Tonight was liverwurst on toast.

I might have mentioned this on here before but can't remember. One thing I fixed last night was boiled red potatoes with thick sliced squash, diced onion and a little cabbage and added butter and salt and pepper at the end. It gets sort of thick at the end and it tastes great.

Breaded Chicken breast stuffed with Cheese and ham and baked and spinach salad and Ice tea.
