All my grandchildren (and children and their spouses, when possible) get to order what they want for their birthday meal at my house. Thanks to our purchase of a motorcycle, which has kept us on the road recently, Brett's meal is a couple of weeks late. But this evening, he gets his special dinner.
He ordered barbecued brisket (all done except the barbecue part). Oreo Dessert (done). Home-made dinner rolls (now rising for the first time) and broccoli-and-rice casserole (the ingredients are laid out and waiting).
I added potato salad to the menu, because it goes so well with anything barbecued, and pineapple-upside-down cake, so Brett hopefully will have more Oreo Dessert for himself.
Yeah, there's lots of sugar and starch there. That's life.
That all sounds very good. I have a broccoli and rice casserole receipe and it doesn't go like that at all. I should share mine but it isn't really mine.

Mmmmm.... sugar & starch <picture drool here> Thank goodness I have a pretty high metabolism, or I would weigh about 2 tons! Everything sounds scrumptious!

All that sounds good to me. Helen
ReplyDeleteIt all sounds delicious ! Happy Birthday to Brett! And lucky all the rest of you because you all get to eat the good food too! I used to do that for my family and still do every now and then, when they come home I try and fix their favorites. All very sweet and starchy too! 'On Ya' - ma
