i have chicken tenders that will either end up being breaded and fried and made into fingers for my boy and dw, the reminder as chix parm for me.
or, if i get home early enough, i'll be making my limey thymey chicken piccata. i bought a beautiful bundle of fresh thyme on the way home yesterday at a florist.

Sorry about having to pay this year, vyapti. Hope the Mexican food helps! It sounds so good, I think I'll do Mexican here tonight, too. Probably just rice and beans and make-it-yourself chalupas.

Your shrimp/scallop marinara sounds good too!

The market had some large really nice-looking U.S. farm-raised catfish filets, so I picked up two. Plan to dip them lightly in Italian salad dressing followed by a hefty coating of coarse-ground lemon-pepper seasoning. Will bake them & accompany with some butter-&-parmesan tossed fresh tri-color cheese tortellini (also on sale at the market), & a nice mixed green salad. Shouldn't take more than 30 minutes to have the whole shebang on the table, which, with the kind of work hours my poor husband has had to keep lately, is my kind of meal - lol!

Nothing exciting here... leftover spaghetti and meatballs.
OK, I lied. I find leftover sketti exciting! (I need a life, LOL)

I'm with you Kimchee ...even left over sketti sounds good to me. But ... we have running to do plus it's Friday so we'll be ordering out. Probably Pizza. We heard of a new pizza place that someone said had the best pizza ever. It's a 1/2 hour drive from our place to it, so I have to decide if it's worth taking the chance on it.

Mmm, Mexican sounds perfect! Maybe I can sweet-talk DH into taking me to one of our favorite Mexican food restaurants tonight.

GrillinFool inspired me to try out my new grill pan. I did sausage on the grill, and shrimp in the pan. I also sauteed some spinach, but I'm the only one who ate that...

Rob that looks amazing! YOU can have your pudding, now!
Agghhh! I had to cut the huge property tax checks in January. It was very painful. The only up side about having an unemployed husband last year is that we didn't have to pay the IRS this year.

nice job, robsan! did you shell the shrimp before grilling? and what kind of sausage is that? looks delicious, like a smoked hot dog, what they call a hot smokey around here.
i made my limey thymey chicken piccata last night, with an addition. it's officially now a fusion dish with the changes i made, so here's the new name: mexitalian chicken piccata.
i pulled out a bundle of herbs from the fridge thinking it was parsley. when i realized what it was, i thought that cilantro goes well with lime, so i tasted it with a caper berry, butter, and some lime, and the combo worked!
i will be posting the new recipe later today since it was just so damn good. dw and my boy didn;t want to wait until i got home and cooked, so they had leftover bbq chicken legs and rice from the night before. but when i brought my creation upstairs, they had a second dinner until they were stuffed, so i know it was good.

One of our former exchange students is visiting us this week, so we both took yesterday off and went to Busch Gardens Williamsburg. Afterward, we met my mom and her DH for dinner at Tequila Rose, a Mexican restaurant.

Matt, you should have declared your huge tree as a dependent. j/k
Yeah... wrote the killer check for the property taxes (part deux) not long ago. A little late, but...
