What’s for Dinner Tonight?


depends on where in town dh wraps up his first Christmas shopping outing. I asked him to call and let me know what neck of the woods he's in so we can choose a fast food place. he's out shopping, I got all my wrapping done (including stocking stuffers:scared1:) and the last few odds and ends of holiday decor up so something I only have to warm up in the microwave sounds great.

tomorrow-i have been craving jambalya but I am not into all the time and effort it entails so I am going to try and experiment with some shrimp and andoulli I had in the freezer. going to use my recipie's seasonings and vegetable componants, add the shrimp and andouii but do it up as more of a sauce into which I will toss some pasta.

I'm impressed! I've barely started shopping.

I'm shocked myself. I'm usually at least doing the stocking stuffers a couple of days before Christmas but this year I took advantage of both walmart and target having holiday (and non holiday) return start dates much earlier than everyone else so that helped. I also did'nt end up with allot of odd shaped stuff. i've got a few items from Amazon that should be here Sunday that i'll do same day, gift cards I need to get (easy-i use the little reusable tins) and then I just need to figure out a couple more stocking stuffers for dh (i'll be at the retro toy store next week so maybe I can find another 'action figure' (god help you call them dolls) to keep his 6 million dollar man company.
 
Tonight is our annual progressive Christmas party with our neighbors. We go to three different houses - drinks and apps at the first, entree (& drinks ;) ) at the next and dessert (and, likely, more drinks :rolleyes1 ) at the last house. For the first time in quite a few years, we will not be one of the houses hosting. We'll provide some apps, but we wanted a year off from hosting this year.
That sounds really fun!

I made creamy chicken gnocchi with leeks tonight with leftover green beans.

You're so organized. Wanna do my shopping? :laughing: I have no clue what I'm buying most people & only have a couple ideas for DH & DS. :sad2:

organization has nothing to do it-having adult children with VERY specific interests in anime and d&d who provide very detailed wish lists makes a huge difference (though I did manage to sneak in a few bluey items in for one and a couple of silly small appliances for the other).
 
Tonight will be Chicken Quesadilla casserole and green salad.

might get to baking a cookie, but it is my only day off so we'll see.
DGD came over after school yesterday to bake cookies for a 4H party....that was last night. At least the cookies were really fresh
:rotfl2:
She made sugar cookies. her very favorite cookie.
 
Our sons are coming home tonight to help put up the Christmas tree. I'm making a mediterranean chicken over spaghetti squash dish that is one of their favorites.
