I'd like some German chocolate cake too!

I'm trying a new chicken recipe. You take the chicken breasts and dip them in a mixture of mustard, worchestshire sauce and melted butter and then roll them in bread crumbs, parmesan cheese and garlic and bake them. I'm hoping they come out tasty. I'm also making broccoli and some Rice a Roni.

Let me know how the chicken comes out, Mamie! Sounds delish!

I don't know what we're having tonight... I might say boo to this and order pizza tonight. I had a job interview today, I'm exhausted, LOL.

It is yummy. Another set of rave reviews from the family. I haven't tried a new recipe that they haven't loved yet. Knock on wood.

Oh, be careful, Mamie... you start with a good streak of new recipes, so then you get more creative... and most of those are OK, so you get even MORE creative...

I've only ever had one meal that was so horrendous it had to be tossed (cajun snapper - ugh, tried 'recreating' something from a restaurant), but I've made a few questionable 'new recipes' in my day, LOL.

I have too. I've just been lucky these past few weeks. I think I'll head back to the ole standbys. I do have a spinach/artichoke lasagna to try first though.

Cottage cheese and fruit cocktail. (Last night we went out to a Chinese buffet. AND I was good. I didn't have anything breaded or fried. The only fattening thing I really had was the wonton soup- my fave-crave! And I did feel guilty about the cheesy-cauliflower but it was deeeelish.)

Same as Mamie, kind of! I'm doing spinach lasagna, but instead of the long lasagna noodles and layers, I'm using bow tie noodles and mixing everything together. Kidlets don't really like the layered lasagna and the truth is I hate making it, lol.

That sounds good too. I haven't made a homemade lasagna in a long, long time. I'm hoping it comes out well.

Yay Skootz! Doesn't much matter what it was, but that the kidlet cooked! Our kids cook dinner about once a week and usually make fairly easy stuff (pizza or chicken strips) with some help from us. It's a nice night, they love doing it and I enjoy a break.

Mamie, lasagna, either style, is a staple for us (almost always homemade) when the weather cools down. When we were growing up, mom and step dad both worked night shift and me and sis were left to ourselves til they got home. There were very few family dinners. Bil's family though is this large, loud, happy Italian bunch where dinner is a huge event and always eaten around a table with lots of talking and laughing, usually over lasagna. It's my feel good meal, lol. It never fails to remind me that even when it's just us and the kids that family meal time is a great time for us to enjoy each others company.

Missed our 'friday fiesta' last night because the beef I bought was bad. So tonight is nachos instead of last night (went out for White Spot last night).

We're doing fast food (probably McDonalds cuz the kids are begging for it) tonight. I forgot, or I knew they were but really didn't think about dinner, that my neices were going to spend the night tonight and didn't take out enough food to feed the girls too.

We had a "dinner club" meal w/a new group we joined a couple months ago. The theme tonight was "The Dogpatch" and man, oh man, we ate well!

Baked rabbit (yes, it tastes like chicken! LOL) - some baked plain, some baked with gravy
Baked beans
Fresh tomatoes
Maple syrup corn bread w/pure maple syrup on top
Sweet potatoes/mashed
Sugar Cream pie

And wine -- lots of wine! :-)

We ended our fun evening w/friends by reading limericks one our group wrote. Ribald, bawdy and a fantastically fun way to top off the night! :-)
