I have to go make dinner now, and it will have to be some thing better than macaroni and chese, see what you've done!!! :eek: :D :D :D
 
I love mac and cheese!! I make it with four cheeses and bake it just to gooey; not browned. I got a Johnny Marzetti recipe that's so good I make enough to feed 12 and it usually lasts the wife and I maybe 3 days.

Today her lunch bucket had:

Tuna salad with lettuce and American Cheese on Pepperidge Farm Pumpernickel Rye, A side salad of iceburg, carrots, red cabbage, onion, and spinach dressed with sun dried tomato vinegrette, and a serving of mixed fruit for dessert.

She said the inmates got a real kick out of her Green mashed potatoes. Had them laughing until they started heating up in the microwave then the laughs changed to drools, (Onion and garlic got to them!) :D
