I have an afternoon appointment about 1 hour away from home (sans traffic) and should be finishing up around the same time DH gets off work. The last thing I am going to want to do is come home, head straight to the kitchen and cook, so we are going to meet somewhere at a restaurant for dinner.
Now the big decision is which restaurant? Seems there is always a decision to make regarding dinner.

VP - those tenderloins also make a wonderful, quick roast. Just season them (unless they're the marinated kind - even better!) w/salt, pepper, garlic and onion powders or some Emeril-type seasoning or Lowry's seasoned salt, whatever your family likes, throw them in a 350 oven for about 45 minutes (it's been a while since I've done this, so you should test it w/a thermometer) and voila! A lovely, quick roast - you can even do it during the week. It also grills really, really well. If I remember correctly, it takes about an hour on the grill - you may want to use indirect grilling.
Elston, just let us know which day is the lobster and we'll be there with bibs on!
I forgot to mention dinner tonight! Looks like it's dunch/linner at a local Brazilian grill for dh's b'day today. Oh, and the b'day apple pie is in the oven, smelling like a little piece of heaven. C'mon over later for pie and ice cream!
I am cooking in dutch oven: shredded cabbage, onion, sour kraut, and apple in some chopped up bacon....it will cook for several hours or longer and then later I will add a couple of kielbasa and potatoes......the house will be fragrant but I bet it will be good.
This is where a crock pot would come into play--just plug it in outside. Thanks so much for the recipe-I will try it soon.
Ok, after days of sandwiches, I am going to attempt "real" cooking tonight.
Should be baked chicken thighs, brussells sprouts, and a starch, if I don't flake out and remain in "I refuse to cook-ville."
Wish me luck!
