Good-morning all. Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. I did yesterday was our 12th wedding anniversary!!!:)


Today I'm going shopping for the week and will post later what I have decided to make;)
 
The person making dinner for our Fire Dept. meeting can't be there so I have 7 lbs. of roast cooking all day in the crockpot then I'll make mashed potatoes with garlic, sour cream and cheddar, gravy, corn and probably an angelfood/strawberry/cheesecake pudding trifle with chocolate sauce available to drizzle over the top.All while trying to take minutes for the meeting and make sure my kids are behaved in another room...(You better believe I'm going to make DH help with something.) ;)

We are having the new white chicken chili! I can't wait to taste it!
 
Corn on the cob for sure. Maybe some grilled ham steaks!
 
:Breakfast supper for us: bacon, eggs, waffles or pancakes. It's my backup when I can't think of anything else and I'm sick of chili, tacos and spaghetti :D
 
Ohh Kristen - I LOVE breakfast supper! I especially love it when it includes someone else making it :)
 
Chicken cutlets on the bar pan that marinaded in italian dressing - topped with some bread crumbs, fresh garden salad, grilled Carrots and Zucchini with basil oil and baked potatoes. Fresh berries with cool whip for dessert .
