For anne marie.....
This post is for you, anne marie ........
Dolly and I were just hanging out, comparing "assets" yesterday.
She's a lot taller in person that she looks on tv.
She wanted me to tell ya "Howdy" and she wishes you were here.
It was a shame though that there were no "Romeos" around...... ;-)
That Dolly......she's such a kidder!

This Week on the Dining Table
"You never hesitate to tackle the most difficult problems"
Ok, so I am bringing back this feature due to popular demand....ok, maybe not so much popular demand but it gives me something to fill up this space with one day a week.
So sue me...... ;-)
Last week, sit down for this, I had NO meal plan.
And yes, I hear the sound of fainting all across my readership as you let those words sink in.
I just bought some groceries(on discount or sale of course)and pulled stuff out of the freezer and leftovers in the fridge and just went where it led me.
Monday--pizza(homemade and frozen varieties), salad
Tuesday--leftover kielbasa & caramelized onions on rolls, green beans
Wednesday--salmon, asparagus(had to finish using up what I bought 2 weeks ago)
Thursday--leftover chicken & asparagus risotto
Friday--gourmet burger(gotten this week on clearance), creamed spinach
Saturday--leftover homemade spaghetti sauce, rigatoni, salad
And I did ALOT of grocery shopping last week.
4 trips to 3 different stores.
Catching lots of "deals" this week like MANY canned tomato products, spicy brown mustard and ketchup(for grilling season), Rotel, using a rain check to get Tide for $1.47 a bottle(unheard of price!!!), many fresh pork products and other meats on clearance for the freezer, butter on sale, many soda & water bottle packs for donation to #2 Son's Jazz Band Festival tomorrow, etc.
All in I spent $174.00 on $318.72 worth of groceries this week.
I am up to $295.33 of food spending and we are only halfway through the month!
Geez......
I'll not be spending any grocery $ this week though and that will get us to the last week of April.
So we aren't in horrible shape with the food spending.....yet. lolz
And I have NO MENU again for this week.
Yep, I am flying by the seat of my pants.....
All I can say is that Sunday night was a little Mexican something or other. 8-)
So what's on tap at your house this week?
