I have been waiting for my food storage to arrive from the cannery (a ward sister who works there was bringing it to me this week sometime) and she brought it over about an hour before dinner time tonight. I elected to do mexican food- I did not get any appetizers done and only one one side dish. We had combo burritos and would have made my own tortillas but no energy and had some in the fridge. I made taco meat for anyone that wanted it since my husband always wants meat in his burritos and corn. We did not have much of a desert tonight but we dished out a few peanut M&Ms each. This was a good opportunity for my family to try the refried beans from the cannery. We are just beginning to get a food storage together and my husband is so so picky that I was not sure if he would like them or not. He liked it and went back for more! Hopefully tomorrow will be better for me so I can do more, this is an eye opener...

I am horrible at fixing meals for guests even when i have notice. It was a mediocre meal. This gave me the idea to just have a high class meal always ready or maybe a few that i will always have available for such a situation. I guess this opened my eyes. thanks I did not like this challenge. I am horrible at fixing meals for guests even when i have notice. It was a mediocre meal.

We prepared dinner and dessert from our freezer and had dinner on the table in no time ready for quest. But my family is frowning now, watching me make powered milk. We had a choice of only juice or water for dinner. Everyone's choose water and vow to only drink water tomarrow too! We did very well on todays challenge.

We also had cornmeal muffins which are easy to make and take little time to bake. Finished the meal with raspberry jello and whipped topping. Easy but yummy.

I chose to go with the mexican theme because that used my beans, rice and ability to make tortillas that are part of my storage. This is always a good challenge because it has happenend to me more than once. I made a bean dip with chips for an appitizer, We had Mexican lasagna with confetti rice and mexican corn for dinner. I served tortillas that were coated with cinnamon sugar and filled with a cream and peaches. I was able to choose from several different themes.
