After a week of cooking every night, we invited friends over
for leftovers. What a great night to stay in.
The weather was beautiful allowing us to dine outside and I enjoyed a nice
cocktail before everyone got there. Southern Comfort and Raspberry Ginger ale is my current drink of choice. Just one, washes the week away.
Not only did we save
money by not heading to a restaurant like we normally do on Fridays. We were also very much entertained by our
friends’ new puppies, now 11 weeks old.
I pulled everything out of the fridge, set it up on the
counter, pulled out the paper plates and bowls and told everyone to help
themselves. The smart ones jumped in
first and didn’t have to wait for the microwave to warm things up.
Our choices for the night were the Greek Chicken, with Rice,
Green Beans and Cream Corn we had Tuesday night, the yummy Sausage, Chicken,
& Gnocchi Soup from Wednesday and Thursday’s Creamy Chicken Chili.
However, I did take pity on all the kids and ordered
Pizza. They really didn't want leftovers.
I must admit, it was a fun, relaxing night for everyone
except for my poor Lab, Bailey. He will be 10 in a couple of weeks and I'm afraid he's a little set in his way. Those 2 puppies made him a nervous wreck. One of them thought his tail was a new toy. And because he is our great protector of the house, that poor boy felt like he had to
follow them everywhere they went. He spent most of the night keeping them in check.
Poor
baby the more those two puppies roughhoused the more he upset he got. He sounded like a mom barking at them to settle
down. Believe me, he fell asleep as soon
as they left and slept for 10 hours. He's the best dog in the whole world!!!
Such a fun evening with friends and family. I couldn’t have asked for a better ending to
the week!!!
