I wish I had taken pictures, but I didn't, so you'll just have to visualize.
4 of us "girls" in the cul de sac meet once a month for dinner. We missed last month due to busy schedules and not being able to find a day that worked for all of us. We almost had the same problem this month but decided to go with 3 out of 4 and fortunately the 4th made it after her other commitment.
I wanted to do the dinner (make everything) and was very excited to cook a "grown-up" meal that everyone would enjoy. Wednesdays are great for me because the kids go to choir practice with Mima and Papa at 5:00 and dinner is at 7:00. I should have had 2 hours to whip up my gourmet meal. As it turned out, Mima wasn't feeling well, so along with dinner for the group, I had to cook dinner for hubby and kids. Hubby and kids had baked chicken breasts, corn and mac and cheese.
For the other dinner I made brown rice with sauteed squash, zucchini and red onion, Garlic shrimp, and a salad with raspberry vinagrette dressing. We accompanied dinner with Margaritas and had a fabulous brownie cheesecake for desert that I swear put me into a sugar coma for about an hour. I'll try to remember to take pictures next time.
