I have Sunday supper started. it is a signal that the weekend is approaching it's end. I had a nice 3-day weekend. Lots of time to do things as well as relax. Today we just chilled together and went for a nice walk. Supper will be steak and shrimp with baby red potatoes and vegetables kabobs. I have a cherry pie that we picked up along our walk, and I also picked up some Roma tomatoes so that I can make bruschetta. We will have a garden salad as well. What are you planning on making for supper tonight?

Ah well your weekend is nearly over Spare a thought for me My weekend is not over until Tuesday morning but fear not, Wednesday night and the new weekend begins so don't feel too sorry for me. I hear Canada calling me over for supper. Nah only joking as we have already eaten. I had a fancy sandwich and some cocktail sausages both from the Sainsbury Taste the Difference range and some of Yvonne's cake. Happy days

Oh Yvonne prepared a delicious supper for you tonight. Yes back to work tomorrow. I have to go downtown to work in the office once a month, and tomorrow is that day. It is Employee Appreciation Week, so they will have lots of 'games' and prizes and nice extra long paid lunch put on by a catering company.

@Ineeddentures I would do without the longer fancy lunch to work at home. I don't like going into the office to work, as everything is set up so well here at home, and I don't have to dress up.

@Juliaacv well she handed me the packs and we ate sitting watching the football. Enjoy the office tomorrow. Extra long paid lunch sounds good to .e.

I love bruschetta. It's amazing how different places serve it in different ways.

@JudyEv No, it should just enhance the flavour, I actually wonder how a bit of crumbled blue cheese would go along with the tomatoes.

I am always amazed at how different places prepare it differently also. I just brushed a little extra virgin olive oil on the thin crusty bread, then I lightly toasted them and topped them with the chopped tomatoes and parsley, I put s tiny bit of shredded mozzarella cheese on them to try to hold everything in place, but I used it sparingly.

@Juliaacv Yours sounds really tasty. Some smother the tomato with cheese and it spoils the flavour somewhat.

Thanks. I cannot count how many times that he reminded me of just how blessed we are. One of his former co-workers that he worked with yesterday, has to call his wife every other hour. She is not well. She has nursing care come in twice a week. She will never get better either, and it is taking its toll on him.

@Juliaacv I hurt so badly for people like that. We need to imprint the good times on our hearts.

@AmbiePam Yes, so do I, and it really struck a chord in him. He told me that of the 2 workers that he was close with, one is going through this while the other is a young Dad still bringing babies into the world. He calls that worker 'the kid' and he loves it when he calls him that.

Well, I did have burgers planned, but I guess that will be tomorrow. I went out with some people I know here to a buffet.

That sounds delicious. I have not tried a mustard sauce on steaks, only on lamb, but I will have to experiment.
