Chicken parmesan, linguine with tomato basil sauce (using up the abundance of fresh basil leaves I bought for last night's pho), and Caesar salad (Lily's choice).
Leftovers for everyone's lunch tomorrow.

I love leftovers. Knowing that the meal will be even better the next day is a gift. Sadly, it is rare that we have leftovers.

I planned several meals with the intention of leftovers for this week's lunches. I send Lily's in her thermos and she loves having a warm homemade lunch.

Who wouldn't. What a lucky Lily. "Mom of the Year" award coming your way.
But then she screams at me, stomps her feet, and slams the door when I ask her to brush her teeth. I don't think I will survive her teen years if this is how intense she is at 8!!!

And then there are the early twenties to think and worry about.

General chicken, pork fried rice, broccoli and beef at a restaurant I really enjoyed as a child. Sadly, it was just almost okay. We will not be going back.

Visited my mom for dinner. She fixed lasagna, green beans, corn, steamed broccoli, and cheese biscuits, with banana pudding for desert.

Serve some Vanilla Wafers with the banana pudding and the entire meal's grade goes from 99 to 100.
Not to answer for Dale, FF but it's Alabama banana pudding. Bet he comes back with " the bottom and sides of the dish were covered with vanilla wafers."

So the VWs are understood and don't need to be mentioned - that's the way it should be. I should have known better than to have questioned Southern baking / cooking - my bad.

Bama's right. The bottom and sides of the dish were lined with vanilla wafers before the pudding even went into it, kinda like they were a pie crust or something. I don't think I've ever had it any other way. One may as well leave out the bananas as to leave out the vanilla wafers. This of course leads to my question.....in New York are the cookies served on the side?

Sadly, banana pudding is not a big thing up here (it is to me) so you don't see it that often, but when you do, I've seen it done both ways. Also, sometimes, each VW is just pushed half way into the top of the pudding. New York does not understand banana pudding.

How unfortunate. It's practically a staple of a proper southern diet.

One of the few variables I've ever experienced is was there toasted meringue on top or whipped cream.

Never seen meringue on top, but I've had it with whipped cream on top.

I've had it like that, too, and while it did not detract from the recipe, it didn't really improve upon it either.
