Goodbye to June??? Can't be - this year is flying by.
What's on the menu for everyone today??
I have leftover chicken - not sure what I'll do with it.

We are having carne asada soft tacos. I think I will saute a red bell pepper and an onion to top them with, and make a small batch of homemade guacamole. I've been having bad luck with avocados lately. I have three, hoping at least one is in good shape on the inside.

I heard on the news this a.m. that 1/6 of the crop of avocados is ruined from the heat/draught this year.

Oh, that's a shame. We love avocados.
Ron had a retirement party to go to tonight, so I made myself a chopped salad and a turkey sandwich.

Good news - the first two avocados I cut into were pretty much perfect. So hit and miss.

Great to "see" you PJ! Have a great vacation. Hope you will stop in to add your two cents even if you aren't cooking.
How is Picky these days?

I am so glad you finally get a break, PJ! Enjoy that wine!!!!
With Mary Beth coming in to do maps after her regular job on Tuesday and Thursdays, it makes for long days. I had burgers planned, but when I asked to stop for wine, William jumped on the idea of the sandwiches again. My menu plan has flown out the window this week. But we Will get it all eaten!
