Oh Where, Oh Where Did Our Dinner Thread Go?

[Kitchen Diva]

So- I was wondering (merely because it was really pretty helpful for me) if we were still doing our "what's for dinner" thread?

I'd still like to- we could call it recipe o' the day if that would work better- but I got a lot of great ideas off that thread!

Wanna do it some more?

Tonight I believe I'll be making some taco's and corn spoon bread for supper... it is such a nice day out, too- so that could change to something on the grill.

Last night DH had burgers on the grill and I had a salmon roll stuffed with crab, etc. (Mine was much healthier).Tonight...don't know yet...DH is at Field Day and I have to go into work.

Sweetie, don't think I was saying you dropped the ball- to the contrary! I was just curious as to where it went. I really liked it!

Main dish? Tortilla casserole (or similar) in the DCB.Dessert? Trifle...maybe Angel Food cake (mix or purchased), seasonal fruit, pudding in layers. Salad? Layered salad in the trifle bowl?Hope the Pastor will be a good match for your church

Well it's 58 in the cities today, so it must be below zero up on the shore! Poor fella- I hope he brought a thermos of hot soup!

Woman- you are on the move more than a traveling group of desert nomads! The oatmeal cookies sound good! Maybe I'll make some of those this weekend since it is so chilly.

Okay, lunch is ready!

DH is grilling Country Style Ribs on the grill this evening. I'm fixing a salad. And, I don't know what else we are having. Any suggestions?

He packed jeans and his jacket. And his new dork hat should help keep his head warm. There was some confusion over where specifically the show was - they had space at some convention center and rumor was that the show field would be inside the building. There were only about 70 cars registered as of last week.

Dor- can you get a beach house closer to my house? I could be your personal chef while you are there!

all right, MARGARITAS made my batch to put in the freezer for tomorrow.
Tastefully Simple Mango margaritas, a must try so delicious. Could put a strsw in the bucket and drink it all myself. What happens next might not be pretty though ha ha Dor, I am still trying to get DH to let me come to the beach house and then to NC in Chicago, but I don't think he is quite going for it, darn killjoy

Well, we ended up not going to the church potluck. DH didn't get in in time & I had a cleaning frenzy today. So, we're going to mom's to grill.

Squash & zuchhini on the grill, rib-eyes & chicken, fried green tomatoes & I'm not sure what else.

Just saw this and you made me chuckle!

Yes, it was a chaotic day. It took 4 hours to register 15 people at camp! No, I'm NOT that slow, they just didn't show up on time and the last 2 kids to come didn't have their medical forms in ahead of time...grr...

After that I was a little ticked about wasting that much of the day...I ended up canceling going into work tonight and took the kids to the Fire Station instead. They road bikes around the lot for 3 hours while I spent time with Steve and the others doing Field Day (once a year exercise for Ham operators...).

The trifle went over well! I made it in the large stainless bowl so I could make a bigger one. I didn't bring a bit home.

The cookies went slower but about 2-3 dozen were eaten. I left the rest for snacks overnight for them.

YUM, that sounds heavenly!!

Turned out good - see above post!

The flavors went together well!
