Sunday Dinner

I get up at 5:30 and leave the house at 6:45 to go to work these days. And there's no point in leaving work before 6:30 because the traffic sucks until at least then, so I don't normally get home until 7:30 or so in the evening. So during the week I have about two hours to do the things that need to be done around the house -- laundry, tidying, etc. Needless to say, those home-cooked casseroles I used to make at least a few times a week have pretty much bitten the dust.

So today, after Kat and I cleaned the house top to bottom, I decided to make a home cooked meal, just like old times. Kat's a vegetarian, Elisabeth cycles through being a vegetarian, a vegan and a carnivore (and I'm not sure what she is this week), and the guys love meat, so I decided to make both a vegetarian and a meat lasagna from scratch.

Tomorrow we'll go back to the Costco purchases -- Chinese chicken salad, pizza and pre-made casseroles -- but for tonight at least, we all sat down together and enjoyed Sunday dinner together.
