It's Friday


I love Friday nights. They're the only night of the week when I'm really relaxed. There's something about having a whole weekend ahead and a work week behind that's appealing. Unfortunately, I have to work some this weekend, too.

I spent large parts of the day running around doing errands - the bank, the post office, the accountant, etc. etc. etc. You do very much of that and the whole day is gone. Actually, it was only the whole afternoon. I wrote on grants all morning. I think with just a little work this weekend I can get one of them out the door and I want to do that so I can stop thinking about it.

Tonight I'm cooking for Peggy's party tomorrow. I'm glad to help with things. Peggy and Gary have done so much for me. I will be taking photos so hopefully I'll have some to share here tomorrow evening - at least I hope so.

I'm making Spinach Cheese Squares. This is a great recipe. I got it at allrecipes.com

2 tablespoons butter
3 eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 pound shredded Cheddar cheese
2 (10 ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach
1 tablespoon minced onion

Directions
1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 Place butter or margarine in a 9x13 inch baking dish
and melt butter in oven. Remove when melted, approximately
3 minutes.
3 In large mixing bowl, beat eggs well. Mix in flour,
milk and baking powder. When the dough is well combined,
mix in cheese, spinach, and onion. Spoon mixture into the
baking dish with melted butter.
4 Bake for 35 minutes. Let cool 45 minutes then cut into
bite-size squares.
