Butternut squash risotto.  It's only my 2nd attempt at risotto, so hopefully it turns out well!

Thanks Weby- Crazy thing is I got offered a job at the restaurant we ate in, just a block from my house. 
Wow--it's great to have choices!  Do you think you'll take the job?

Sounds really good!

Tonight I probably won't have much due to a late lunch of spicy tomato soup with veggies and Mil's bread.

We are having chicken quesidillas and mexican rice. 

Jewlz - I love hearing about kids loving brussel sprouts! I would gladly work for the sprout appreciation board if it existed. To this day I would rather have them than just about anything else (except perhaps lima beans mixed with corn.)

Andee- I may do, not sure yet.  I feel bad as a friend set up me getting the other job. This place is especially close to your house- it's the newish place just down the road from you.  Lovely food and not crazy expensive, and it doesn't get all clubby until after 11.

We're having Chili and Salad.

We're having Sunday roast!  :)  Chicken this time, and assorted veg.

Went out to sunday lunch for daddy in law's birthday. Had a roast, but it wasn't great... However, there was good company, drinks, and perhaps best of all- costco cake!  ;)

Probably lentil pilaf-cheap, filling, and tasty.   :)

Sounds really good!

It was!  I somehow managed to not ruin it!  :)

We're having vegetable and lentil soup tonight.

       Thanks for the tip! Are they proper corn tortillas though? Bc that is the one thing I can't stand about the ones i've made here.

no sorry PL they aren't corn totillas but flour ones...it still is pretty darn tasty..the sauce to me is what makes it..you have to mix the sauce packet with 250grms of chicken stock..but I use a chicken stock cube and boiling water....the flavour is almost there.....
