Leftover Wednesday - not for the faint at heart

I have not stopped moving since 5:45a.m. this morning. After I got ready for work, I listed 2 items on eBay, packed my lunch and stopped by Starbucks to make the coffee run for Katie and me. (If you worked with us, trust me, you'd understand why we need it on Wednesdays especially).

Even though I work at a "desk" job, I hardly saw it today. It seems that everyone who came in required me to get up and walk around the office to figure out how to help them for one reason or another. After 8 hours, I headed home.

I promised Leah I'd help do the PR for our AWANA Grand Prix and car Shine n Show. This required me stopping by the church to visit Pasto (yes, the "r" is gone intentionally) Jim, and pick up a bunch of posters. I then went home to get the mail, eat a snack and unload the car from the day. I headed out to the library, put a poster up there, checked out some books and continued East on Grove St. I went to the Marysville Cleaners, put up another poster, stopped at Safeway to put up yet another poster and pick up some white wine vinegar for a recipe we'll be making this weekend, and then went to the Public Safety Center to try to get a poster up, but they were closed. After all that, I stopped at Schucks to put up another poster, but was told to come back tomorrow morning. I tried Napa, who took one with no promises, and Les Schwab, who enthusiastically agreed to put one up.

Finally, I came home to start dinner and dessert. Tonight's menu was simply leftovers with a casserole.

I guess I was a bit sloppy with the sides of the casserole dish, but the Hashbrown Casserole is a PERFECT golden-brown. :) I did have to start it on 300 degrees, with the lemon bars, because of timing. I so desperately wanted Robert to come home to a hot meal on the table, and everything had to be timed perfectly.

Initially, I was going to do chicken tonight, but I was so tired, and didn't have the skin-on chicken breasts that I needed. So, leftover soup it was, as well as zucchini parmigiana. Everything came out perfectly, though!

I know it's not the most appetizing dish, but it sure is great comfort food. Not only that, but Robert LOVED it! I think I totally got wifey points for this.

Not to mention that we still have leftover maple blondies from Monday night, so he's pretty happy.

I think tomorrow will be a nice break from cooking, because we're eating with Robert's parents.

After all this, I am going to bed!
