What’s for Dinner Tonight?

Embarrassed to say: Frozen Jalapeno White Castles for both me and DH.
DH was thrilled. He grew up on real White Castles and even loves frozen in a pinch. 8-)
I..I..turned my head so I couldn’t see the total variety of giant boxed WCs at BJs today. Whoosh that was a close one! 😉

Spiedie with tomatoes hero and green salad for son, spiedie on top of salad for me. He bought vanilla ice cream so is attacking the fruit cobbler before dinner. His mother should have taught him some manners! 😞 🤣

So weird you said Spiedie. Last night my daughter was at her friends for dinner. They had Speidie chicken sandwiches and was raving about the dinner. We all live in the Midwest and never heard that term before. Even my autocorrect keeps trying to change the word!! oh but
 
We spent most of the day cleaning and decluttering to get ready to start some remodeling. On the plus side I donated 3 car full of stuff (we have one more I’ll bring tomorrow), organized our electronics to be recycled, and put a ton of bulky stuff on the curb with a free sign (it’s all gone!). So we ended up grabbing a late lunch. We split some fried cheese curds and I had a capris sandwich with pesto, it was delicious! We just had an ear of corn for a snack.

Good luck with your remodel! We finished ours recently and had just as much stuff to donate as you. It’s crazy what we accumulate.
 
Went to the dine-in theater tonight. Buttered popcorn to share. Chicken tenders for me. Impossible burger for DH and Chicken Caesar wrap for DS. He graced us with his presence on a Saturday night which made our jaws drop.
 
This is going to be clean out the fridge night. We'll be choosing from BBQ chicken, stuffed peppers, chicken wings, sausage, Caprese salad & corn. I may decide to add another veggie. Anything left will have to be frozen or tossed.
 
Tonight was pizza and salad because it was a long weekend. DD and I drove to the Boston area (4 hours) on Friday night as she was having her hair done and buying her new dance shoes on Saturday. Last night's dinner was amazing; we had tapas at Matadora, a restaurant in the Hilton Boston/Woburn. Lots of small plates and sangria, and it was all delicious! (Look up the menu online... can't wait to go again!) Today on the way home, we stopped at Aldi in Portsmouth, NH so DD could pick up all kinds of dry goods to stock the pantry in the kitchen of her new house! Anyhow, that made it a 5.5 hour drive home. Once we got the car unloaded and everything put away, I just didn't have it in me to cook supper!
 
Tonight I'm off from cooking-my aunt is making my late uncle's spaghetti sauce. Nobody else can make it like she does, so I'm happy to turn over the pots and pans to her for the day. We'll have meatballs and Italian sweet sausage with it, and probably tonight cheese ravioli.
 
Busy Sunday in all the right ways. As much as I enjoy being on my own, it's been a true joy having son and DGD around.“CrazedGrrlie” swooped in and out of our lives this weekend and made her vitality known. Arrived from the “Windy City” Saturday night, gone back to Paris on a 1:00 am flight this morning so had to jam a lot of home into a small amount of time. Gave her a spiedie salad for a late night dinner, mixed fruit cobbler with yogurt on the side for breakfast, and then her Daddy bought a large pizza for her to munch on throughout the day with the remainder, frozen and packed, in her luggage for that little taste of New York when afar 😂. Somehow bagels, bialys and black + white cookies made it into the suitcase as well.

Kids of all ages (cracks DGD up when I call her Dad that) re organized my freezer the way I like it and thanked them profusely; it’s hard getting others to see things they way I want them to so often I just grin and bear it.

After the re-organization was complete we all sat down to a lobster sandwich on toasted brioche with tarragon mayo and a choice of fries (Whole Foods sells a frozen brand of shoestrings that taste really good) or coleslaw. Son and I split a bottle of sparkling wine, DGD rolled her eyes and drank a Coke.

All the fresh fruit in the house is just a memory excepting one banana.
