Sunday Dinner, well actually Saturday


I made my sweetheart a yummy Valentine dinner. W requested Alice Springs Chicken like Outback's. I accompanied it with my yummy homemade twice-baked potatoes, a caesar salad, asparagus and bread.  It was very tasty!! 

Sunday dinner at the Tobler's was sukiyaki that Joe made. I don't know how to make that one, so I'll share the Alice Springs recipe that was very tasty!!
