Last night's dinner was rotisserie chicken from Wal-mart (leftovers to be used tonight in the salad), spinach sauteed in garlic-lime vinaigrette, German potato salad, baking powder biscuits with honey, and white zinfandel. Yum.
Preparing for Super Bowl party tonight, although *I* will be running back and forth between that and watching Downton Abbey from 9-10 in another room. Decided upon pineapple-coconut shrimp, Joe's warm chicken/mango/avocado salad (your whole menu sounded GREAT, Joe), pork kebabs with Sylvia's jerk marinade, and coconut-lime-cilantro rice. Mai Tais, beach balls, sand around for atmosphere, and beach towels as tablecloths.
Learned never to go to a pancake breakfast (yesterday) at the tail end of it (
Also learned never leave a bag of groceries in the car when it's 0 degrees out because your hands are full. Tomato and sour cream are now pretty such useless; but bleach doesn't freeze ;o)
Pork Stew in the crockpot over rice Friday night
I bought a nice glass pitcher at an antique shop, what I'll use it for I'm not sure. It's only about 6-7 inches tall.
