We had barbecued ribs, hamburgers and hotdogs, potato salad, cole slaw, sliced heirloom tomatoes, sliced Vidalia onion (we like'em too, UB) orange pound cake, turtle brownies and I think that covers it. Glad they stayed to eat again so we wouldn't have leftovers. The ribs turned out great! Even my son in law said so and he isn't flush with compliments, usually.

I'm sorry to hear about your friend Wally. Hugggs and prayers are with you. I don't think I would have an appetite either.

I am having a couple hotdogs, topped with diced cucumber/tomato, sliced dill pickle and mustard.

And a few chips on the side, too. Mark is still having his cheeseburgers.

well the lamb got a bit overdone but still nice and tender---not real flavorful though. Macaroni salad and some rice filled the plate

All of that looks great! A DC combo buffet would have been a killer!

I went to a family BBQ. I took my Cherry Cheesecake for the first time and was nominated to make it for all future family dinners.

Sesame noodles with scallions, red pepper, ginger, cilantro, green peas, etc.

the cook out we went to was very good....the best part was an almond pound cake with home made vanilla ice cream and home grown strawberries

I have to say I pooped out. I had a big barbecue on Sunday, so hubby and I spent Monday just lolling around, being blobs .. no not really. How is it that you can throw a party and do it all in paper and disposible plastic, and not a big party at that, and still wind up with a bunch of work to do before, and wake up to a mess the next morning? So yesterday morning my husband and I potted around at cleaning the mess up, and I'd really expected to make a stir fry for dinner, but at about 2 pm asked hubby if he minded if we just had a frozen pizza and called it a day. My sciatica had been acting up, and I was glad to just pop something in the freezer (i have to let you know that I do put fresh garnishes on the frozen pizza I buy). So ...

I have had lamb in a longgggggg time, so I don't know if it looks over-done or not. It doesn't look that way. Your plated picture looks very delish , and it's early morning.

Here was Mark's dinner. He could only eat one, and I'm having the other one for lunch, reheated.

This was my dinner.

It was just a Monday in Canada land but we had some bbq-d homemade burgers , deliciously seasoned chicken breasts and a pasta salad that consisted of cold penne, italian dressing , feta and orange/yellow/red peppers.

You can't beat bbq'd chicken, burgers and pasta salad. It sounds like you had a great Monday dinner!
