What's going on the dinner table tonight? Share with us! I'm not in the mood to cook so I'm having leftover stuffed shells from yesterday. That is fine because I have plenty of leftovers and live alone so I need to use them up....

Bensen32 I have and will get a second one tomorrow. Weird thing I got one today, but I usually get one the day of the drawing, so I need to get one tomorrow to stay with the tradition. Though so far, it's been a losing tradition LOL Maybe this one will be the one.
