Oh I love Chicken cordon blue, it's one of my all time favorites. Yummy!
 
yeah her too but now i gotta go buy swiss cheese I hate going for 1 thing
 
Well, I'm going to the Taste of Home show...forgot my purse at home though - have to wait until DH brings it tonight - don't know if I'll have time to get dinner then!Co-worker loaned me $1.00 for a soda. :)
 
We are going to eat out, it is grocery night. My DH wants to go so we can eat out otherwise I would go alone during the day.
 
Rennea- if you have the It's Good For You cookbook, the Greek Lemon Rice soup is a good (and unexpected) way to use leftover turkey. That's actually the recipe that I plan to use for my "Hide the Turkey" shows this November.We're going out - car club meeting tonight.
 
Pizza - I have a Council meeting tonight.
 
Who knows. I have election judge training tonight

OMG! It's sooooo good! And a nice dinner with a green salad and some warmed up pita bread (I pop mine into a 10" skillet for a few minutes to heat through).
 
I'm making chili, but my green pepper that I just bought yesterday had dead bugs in it! They look like little flies. GROSS! Still making chili but with no green bell pepper.

Chicken and dumplings here. Finally only the 3 of us for dinner so I know I will have enough with one recipe of dumplings instead of having to double or triple. Of course, I better get moving to finish it before I end up with extra mouths to feed!

Jae peppers are famous for having bugs in them. I really love the green worms NOT! I always warn my staff of those cause if your not paying attention you can miss them!! If the peppers are really nice and firm I would give them a real good wash. I know it might not sound good but think of what else our produce touches and what lands on it:yuck:
