Tonight for dinner is soup and cheese buns. I have a lot to do today and tonight is Grey's 2 hour season final and of course everything stops around here for that. :)
 
homemade spaghetti sauce, salad and garlic bread
 
Hmmm, it's so gorgeous here, that I feel like we should grill something.

Maybe turkey brats, or turkey burgers...and potato salad! Yes - that sounds good!
 
Grilled Chicken Penne Al Fresco with Foccacia Bread sprinkled with parmesan garlic seasoning! Yum Yum
 
Tater Tot Casserole!
 
Change in plans - because it was an Employee Appreciation lunch today for DH at work, and they had Brats and Burgers on the Grill, and Potato Salad....

So....we are having a Taco Salad tonight. :chef:

A delicious pizza from Papa John's! :eek:
 
Oh....how I have missed this!!We are having manicotti stuffed with ricotta, italian sausage and spinach as well as Texas Toast.
 
Cheesy Tex Mex Roll-ups... made with chicken

Did you make and send the cookies you were planning instead of the $5 each? :) ;)

Yes - they all got a plate of cookies, and DH found really nice work gloves on clearance at a hardware store so he bought them all a pair of gloves too.

DH said that they were all excited about the cookies, and at lunch, they all had their plate of cookies with them.:D

I KNEW that would be a better gift than a $5 bill. Most of the guys who work for him are either college students or retirees, and probably don't get home-baked cookies too often.
