DH is OOT for work this week, so dinner is a bit sparse. On an unrelated note, I never realized how much meat people actually eat. This is not a criticism, only an observation
(I'm vegetarian, so usually oblivious to this).

Friday- Going to happy hour after work,so I'll probably just snack on appetizers (DH and DD will probably order pizza)

Sunday- Ravens game so we'll probably stop somewhere on the way home.
I only cooked three days this week, so I'm already done!
Sunday: Roasted chicken, roasted garlic mashed potatoes, panzanella salad, apple cobbler (Friend's bday dinner)
