What’s for Dinner Tonight?

Wednesday night ended up being spaghetti with meat sauce.

Thursday DH and I went out for Thai food. We work from about 10am to 8:30pm-ish on Thursdays so I don't usually cook. We each had an old fashioned, then shared an appetizer order of steamed chicken dumplings and a dinner serving of pad see ew with tofu. We brought home the leftovers.. and I was so tired, I couldn't even finish my drink.

Friday night, DD/SIL/LG came for dinner. I made a chili-mac casserole with melted cheese on top from the leftover chili I made on Tuesday. Served with salad and crusty bread. It was pretty good... and there is a lot left over.

Tonight... scallops are on sale for $17 a pound so I bought about 3/4 of a pound. I think I'll do a ritz cracker crumb coating with lemon butter on the scallops, mashed parsnips, and some sort of pasta with garlic butter/sauce. Maybe salad, too... there's leftovers from last night.

Today I also made corn chowder, which will be for tomorrow night, with BLTs (bacon is already cooked). I have a production meeting and Nutcracker rehearsals from noon-6 tomorrow, so I like to have something prepared so that dinner is quick, as it's usually close to 7 by the time I drop off DD and get home.
 
We are not hosting thanksgiving so I started the inside decorating today. I also put up the new curtain rod since painting is done and hung the new curtains and rehung my grandmother’s mirror over the fireplace mantel.

I’m feeling tired so we grabbed Chinese takeout. I got shrimp fried rice.
 

My daughter is trying to finish up.the last of her merit badges to earn her Eagle Scout rank, so she cooked tonight. Sweet and spicy broiled shrimp with green beans and bell peppers, Hawaiian rolls, string cheese (had to have dairy in there for the badge, but she can't eat it, so we cheated a bit), apple slices with vegan caramel sauce and caramel sticky buns for dessert (we had lots of caramel sauce.
