Tomorrow is Easter and David is working the evening shift. But he is taking Charlie and I out to breakfast before work. Being Easter I am not sure what my sister’s family will be doing.
I’m thinking she may be here part of the day. If so I wanted to have dinner for us. I plan on making Slow Cooker Ravioli Lasagna since we will be gone in the morning and this can cook until we get home.
When or if Debbie comes over we can have dinner and dessert as I have Ice Cream in the freezer and Italian Creak Cake I bought for David in the Icebox. All I need to pick up is Garlic Toast for Charlie.
Or I can make Homemade Garlic Toast which I used to do for Suzzane and was here favorite Garlic Toast and all we ever had because I couldn’t afford to purchase it at the store.
