We're having a little debate-watching party tonight. It's kind of a potluck, but this is what I've been told:
Breaded chicken strips with honey mustard sauce.
Cold seafood plate with balsamic glazed salmon and cold shrimp.
Dessert is carrot cake with cream cheese frosting and cheesecake.
Everyone is bringing their own favorite drink.

(775 posts)DH had an (off diet) fast food meal, I had a nice rare lamb chop at home. (He's not fond of a quick fry-up, but I am.) Later tonight, it's beer and popcorn.
You gotta take a break from the healthy, sometimes.
