A Simple Sunday Dinner Menu

I’m gearing up for a Ladies’ retreat next weekend, studying, reviewing and praying much, but in-between I’ve enjoyed being home to cook our meals. Since we were at our home church yesterday, I planned on having dinner here, rather than going out. To me, there’s nothing better than having a Sunday dinner nearly ready to enjoy after the morning church service. It helps to make the afternoon slower, and the fellowship with friends even sweeter.

Yesterday I had the blessing of hosting a young man who is coming from The Wilds to serve in our church. Dale and I loved getting to know him this summer when we were serving there, and now having him here in our church is a special blessing. His appreciation for a home cooked meal makes cooking a joy! We also invited another couple from our church to join us. I loved having all of them in our home and especially around our dining room table.

Fall Salad on Repeat

I absolutely love coming home from church and having guests join us for dinner. We had the blessing of hosting a young man overnight who works at The Wilds. Our daughter, Alli and her family joined us, too, and it was a sweet blessing to serve them.

I want my grandsons to have special memories of eating Sunday dinner at Gigi’s house, so it is my intention to have them as often as is possible for both of our family’s schedules. Their mommy is doing a fabulous job teaching them to be gentlemen with good manners, and it’s sweet to watch them as they are learning. Oh, they’re still tough little guys, but they know to wait for the hostess before they begin eating, to put their napkin in their lap, and to wait to be excused from the table. I admire the hard work it takes to instill those kind of good habits. I know it doesn’t just “happen!”

I was so surprised that both of my eight-year old grandsons had seconds on SALAD yesterday! But then because I know how absolutely delicious this salad is, I totally understand! It has ALL the things to make you come back for more. It’s a favorite Pioneer Woman recipe I found years ago.
