what's for dinner- saturday, march 8

[fizzgig]

it's grocery day and i'll decide at the store, but i have a lot of work to do in the kitchen today.

my friend's mom is going through chemo and i'm doing dinner for them tomorrow night. they're more home food people, so i'm making pulled bbq chicken, slaw, tater salad and bread. a batch of brownies if i'm really ambitious. my plan is to get everything put together tonight so that all i have to do tomorrow is bake the bread and warm the chicken in the sauce.

happy weekend

1. Wow, that sounds wonderful and very ambitious, my dear fizzgig!

Makes me wish I were your sick neighbor! Well, almost...

Tonight is leftovers.......meatloaf, new potatoes, some sort of vegetable.

Enjoy your weekend! It's a beautiful spring day here.

It's officially 4 above; the grill can be dug out of the new snow.............

we're not out of the woods as far as snow goes, but i think we are in terms of cold. at least i hope we are, this winter has sucked. stay warm.

5. Chicken enchiladas

I have some leftover chicken from last night, and I am craving Mexican style. I'm doing the prep stuff now, so that all I have to do is pop them in the oven. Why now? Because after my 3rd beer or drink, I learned not to play with knives.

7. i've learned that lesson

Your dinner for your friends sounds great! I'm sure they will love it

13. It was "eat at mom's" tonight

Except it was dad doing the cooking,
Hot wings, salt 'n pepper wings, chipotle wings and bbq wings. Raw veggies and garlic/peppercorn dip. Yum. My mom did cut up the veggies, LOL. My dad did everything else, include making the dip from scratch (raw egg and everything). Best dip ever. Just don't talk to anyone for a day or so afterwards, LOL, you'll scare them off with all the garlic.
