Sunday Dinner
I always make a nicer dinner on Sunday. I usually buy a more expensive cut of meat, make rolls, and have a desert and we usually eat right after church. This is how it was done in the home I was raised in and I have continued the tradition. If there is family that lives around they are invited and so it becomes a family affair. We also have the missionaries on occasion. Today we had a very traditional Mormon dinner. I made Chicken Broccoli Casserole, Frog Eye Salad, rolls and corn. For dessert we enjoyed Better Than Anything Cake. We didn't have any company over, mainly because no family lives close enought to come to Sunday Dinner, but it was good. Most of you that read this blog have the above recipes, but if you don't let me know and I will post it.

Natalie has always referred to that cake by a slightly different name! ;)
Just thinking about it makes my mouth water!!! (The cake, that is, not the alternative name....=))
Could you send those recipes to me. They sound delicous.

I have a few things to say. 1. Cute new background (it looks like you to me, I'm not sure why). 2. You are a really good/frequent blogger these days. I'm impressed. 3. I was going to ask for the broccoli casserole but you had already posted it. Thanks. :)
