Dan and I both cook so we can generally put together something relatively edible and nutritious for a meal. We do have the occasional day when we lose track of time or do not feel like cooking. Yesterday was one such day – the not feel like cooking type of day. Fortunately, we went shopping earlier this week and came across a sale on TV dinners.


I opted for an early night, which was obviously a good choice, as I did get up feeling much better than I did yesterday. Dan is also feeling better, so hopefully our bug is behind us.
That is it for today. Tonight we have a more ambitious supper plan.
Take care and have a great day!
Although I haven’t had a TV dinner in quite a spell, I used to love them. On weekends when my mom worked that’s what dad and I had after Sunday morning church. He’d have Salisbury steak and I loved the turkey dinner, but they had to be Swanson’s brand (Banquet just wasn’t as good). Thanks for the memories Anne Marie…

I am glad you are feeling better, but I had to smile at this. This is the first year I have not bought Ferrero chocolates during the holiday season, and Randy even commented on it one night.

We never had TV dinners growing up and my kids didn’t have them until they were all teenagers. Dan and I have them once in a while now – turkey, Salisbury steak, or chicken. And yes, they do have to be Swanson!

I get Dan the Ferrero ones and a bid of Brandy Beans for me. This year I went to a gourmet chocolate shop and got a very small, very pricey box of special chocolates. They were horrid. That shop used to have really good chocolates but not anymore! I am glad we are feeling better too. Thank you.💞

My mom cooked supper every night except Saturday when I was a kid. She’d put a roast in the oven on Sunday morning before we left for church. But then she started working in a nursing home and had to work every other weekend. Dad didn’t cook and I was too young, so we became Sunday friends with Swanson’s. (We went out to eat every Saturday night-nothing fancy but still fun and nice memories)…

The last TV dinner I had was not as good as they were in the past so I have not tried any more of them. I am glad to hear that you and Dan are both feeling better. How lucky you are to have a husband that cooks.

I’m glad that you guys are feeling better! TV dinners are much better today than when I was a kid, they are even better than hospital food.

I am lucky! Even if I have to go for some reason, Dan almost always comes with me. Mostly he just goes by himself.

I hate being sick and do not make a good patient – why do they call people patients anywhere. It seems an oxymoron – who is ever patient with sickness? I know I definitely am not! LOL

Not only is my daughter the most patient patient, she can go through major surgery or a difficult childbirth without getting a hair out of place.
