Hectic day and dinner report

Today my DS Chris returned to Orlando. He is talking about moving back closer to home. I think he is worried that his parents are getting old.

tonight's dinner was a quick and easy casserole I picked up from Joe at Culinary in the Desert
I modified Joe's version slightly and you can see his here

I added some chicken to the mix as my DH and DS Zac enjoy meals with meat in them. I found the dish very easy to prepare and quite flavorful as well. I used some white cheddar from Trader Joe's that is only available during the holiday season. It is Kerry Gold Aged Cheddar imported from Ireland. If you live near a TJ's and can pick some up before they are gone, it is a really wonderful cheese.

Zac groaned at first and said "Yuck, broccoli." However, after he tasted it he said "Hey, this is not too bad!" So that is a plus right there if a picky 13-yo gives his approval!

Back to work tomorrow after several days off. After I returned from the airport today there was a message on my answering machine from work telling me that there is to be a carry-in lunch on Saturday. They want me to make a dessert...guess I have a reputation to uphold!!

Until next time.
