What I want to have and what I will have are two different thing 
What I want is sushi and a lot of it. What I will have is leftover Chinese if there is any left when I get home.

I think we'll be having a large lunch at a restaurant today, so probably just soup, curry, chili -- something like that from the freezer for dinner. But who knows? We're picking a freind up at the airport, then having lunch. I'm reading to my shut-in friends in the afternoon.

Who knows it's only 9:30 in the morning here.
I didn't even eat breakfast yet, let alone think
about what to make for dinner.
What ARE we going to have for dinner ? lol
Oh, maybe pork chops or something.

I'm in the same boat as middie. I just finished my coffee. I have no earthly idea about dinner, although, I do have some pinto beans, a ham bone with a little bit of ham left on it, hmmmm.....maybe that and some cornbread?

oohh its sooo easy its just like doing a stew,in a big pot,
i brown the sausages first with a little garlic,then throw in shallots, mushrooms,carrots,peas,new potatoes,mixed peppers, 1 tin of chopped tomatoes, lots of fresh herbs, red wine, a knob of butter, a stock cube made with 1 pint of water, a little flour to thicken it if needed
once the sausage is browning i just throw the rest of it all in together, no fuss,
then i put it in the oven on a low heat & let it cook all day
very simple, fast & gives me time to do other things during the day

Yes that IS an important step
Ok.. dinner tonight will be stuffed peppers using this recipe.
I'm using red peppers instead of green.
Stuffed Peppers with Ground Beef and Rice
Cut tops off of the peppers; remove seeds. Dice around the step of peppers and set aside. Place peppers in a large potand then cover with salted water.
Then boil and reduce the heat. Put a lid on the pan and simmer for 5 minutes. Drain peppers and set aside.
Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat until hot. Sauté chopped green pepper (from tops), diced onion, and diced celery and diced garlic for about 5 minutes, or until vegetables are soft. Add tomatoes and tomato sauce, ,oregano, basil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper. Simmer for about 10 minutes.
In a bowl, combine egg with remaining 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Gently stir to blend; add ground beef, cooked rice, and 1 cup of the tomato mixture. Mix well. Stuff peppers with meat mixture and place in a 3-quart baking dish. Pour remaining tomato mixture over the stuffed peppers. Bake at 350° for 55 to 65 minutes.

I'm not sure what I had for dinner last year, but we probably ate out. Just teasing you Luvs! Half the time I start to write 1976 on checks, and I have no clue why!luvs_food said:
I took a roast out of the freezer last night for tonight, but it looks like I will be fixing that tomorrow instead. It is our 3rd anniversary, and James has decided to take me out for dinner. He asked me where I want to go, but I told him he gets to pick. When he asked why, I told him, "Because I love you and it's your turn. And it's your anniversary too!" lol

happy anniversary, Barb. that is sweet of you. Have a great dinner.
Chicken tonight..Dh and the kids love this and have asked for it today..Boy am I glad it's a quickie Just use a large cut up frying chicken, season with salt and pepper, and make one layer in a shallow roasting pan. Brush chicken with melted butter and re-season if you like or just layer and brush with butter and then season/ you can now sprinkle with garlic powder, I like to put in chrushed fresh garlic and some sauteed green onions or leeks, Add some chicken stock and bake covered for about 1-1/2 hrs. Just before serving add butter to the stock and stir well Serve right in the roasting pan with lots of hot french bread to soak up the juices.We add a green salad and either a veggie or some mashed potatoes. dessert will be toffee bars and ice cream.
