On Monday evening I had a bright idea to schedule a bonfire and roast hotdogs adn marshmallows this week with a group of friends. Our "supper club" got together about a year ago when no one seemed to have time or money to go out often for dinner, so I started hosting a supper club once a month. Everyone brings a little something if they can, but I do the main portion of the meal. Then we watch a movie, or play cards, have a Bible Study or just sit and visit.
We planned our bonfire night for yesterday (Wednesday), but it started raining in the morning and would not let up. We knew the area in the country we wanted to go would be super muddy and impossible to drive in after all that rain, and there wouldn't be any dry wood anywhere either, so we decided to bring things inside. I baked a chicken enchilada dish instead of roasting hotdogs and we had spanish rice and cake as well. It wasn't fancy but it was soooo good. Then in the spirit of bonfires, we decided to have smores straight from the microwave. LOL We played cards some and laughed alot!! It was a good gathering of friends and we are already planning on November's dinner!!
DH is working late tonight, so I have switched the menu planner a little to include a meal I like but DH doesn't since he will be grabbing a sandwich in town tonight. I love my broccoli, rice, ham and cheese casserole, but doesn't fix it often since DH doesn't like rice or broccoli. Unfortunately he doesn't like many things that are healthy! LOL
Thats it for today. Boring huh?? Just about as boring as my chores: cleaning up after the party last night and doing laundry. LMSO
