Chicken. Not sure how I'm gonna prep it, depends on the weather at this point. And a salad, I got tomatoes on the vine for 1.49/lb on sale and got a bunch of em. Can't wait for my own tomatoes to start ripening.

Dinner tonight will be sausage patties, grilled corn on the cob, and probably garlic dill mashed taters. Leftover birthday cake for dessert.

mmmmm Birthday cake..I'm thinking happy hour at the local bar and then over to the crab restaurant for crab bisque and lump crab meat...I spent alot of money on food and drink over the weekend so I might as well keep it going..:spread:

What variety did you plant? I've become such a tomato snob after growing my own about the only kind of store bought I can stand to eat are the grape tomatoes.

Living on the edge.

I've got 12 Jet Star plants, thought I wanted to put in Better Boy (similar to Big Boy) like I did last year, had real good luck with them. All the Jet Star have been pretty good in the past too.

I put in 6 Roma plants for sauce as well.

Awesome. Never heard of those, but I confess, I no little about tomato varieties other than the usual suspects. My wife ordered these varieties from QVC, of all places, without my knowledge. So, I'll post progress reports and opinions on the fruit once harvested.

Tonight: I have one more sausage pattie left, so probably that and something else. Rice A Roni probably. My daughter will be having a hot dog.

Tonight is "leftover caserole" night as we call it in my house. Whatever is in a tupperware container in the fridge will be combined, heated and consumed. Sometimes this is a winner, and sometimes I'm pretty hungry about 9PM ;)

I cooked up some pasta. I experimented with some different seasoning in the water, including Cayenne Pepper powder. Halfway through the cooking time I put in some frozen spinach. It came out pretty good. When serving I added a slice of provolone and some fresh grated Parmesan cheese.
