What's for Saturday's Dinner, 4/14???

What's on the menu for today??

The weather folks are teasing us with predictions of 59° today...from their lips to.... I'm grilling up sloppy, goopy ribs, corn on the cob and some Onion/Rye bread from the Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day book that Maryann made a while back.

Rib Eye Steaks with a sweet potato for me, regular tater for him, and a nice salad.

Hungarian meatball kebobs with paprikash sauce and a side of rice with peas.

I don't know. I'm in the restaurant from noon to 8 today. Maybe I'll just get something there to bring home. I had a pretty good streak going there - getting time to cook at home. Hours have been crazy again - but now it's menu's, and figuring out the the restaurant computer system (and the accompanying update to the golf system).

I'm hoping to at least get pizza dough made, so hopefully pizza.

I think I'm going to make the chicken with almond butter sauce that Blane posted about the other day. Totally up my alley (actually, I think I've made it before). Have to make a trip to the market as we are back - hoping to have asparagus and maybe I'll steal Barbara's idea for a baked sweet potato.

I'm doing the super easy rib roast with twice baked potatoes and a spinach salad.

Trixxee, I have that chicken on the menu for later this week. It looks delicious and quick, which I need on weeknights. Blane and Jean both inspire me with their beautiful photos!

I was planning on grilling steak, but we had an unexpected houseful. I had two kinds of homemade taquitos (vegetarian and chicken) in the freezer, and picked up some tamales this morning at the first farmers' market of the season, just because I love tamales.

Both boys called to see if they could help us put the boat and jet ski in, and brought friends. (Good thing they came....the boat battery was dead at the ramp, but YS was nearby to jump-start the boat).

Dinner was the taquitos and tamales with beer and salad. For a throw-together dinner it worked well!

I'm hopeless! Good weather and wine won the day. Not to mention wine and the need to fortify myself for the coming weeks. Plus, William brought home some locally made sausage. So grilled sausage on hot dog buns with mustard will be dinner.

That's ALWAYS a winning combination!
