Friday nights at my house was chicken night. My dad still insists on chicken every Friday night. I'm glad to see other people have food nights!

I need a dishwasher to keep my rat/jack russell terrier mix at bay. She will take the food right out of my hand if I'm not vigilant.

We have Thai Thursday. I love it.

every sunday in the winter my mom would make a "pot roast" an overcooked lump of stringy gray meat that had been cooked to death in the crockpot. the fall was great though, we'd pick apples every sunday afternoon, and then drive over to a tiny little store that sold "real vermont sharp cheese" this stuff was so strong it made you pucker! we'd get home and have apples and cheese and what they used to call common crackers. Probably the best meal ever! Now my husband and i have two nights a week usually monday and friday, that we do a meatless meal, either veggie soup with homemade bread or grilled vegetables and saffron rice.

I try (most of the time) to put a pasta meal on the table on Sunday. Unless we are in a rut then I go for the roast something.
At least once a week I make a salad meal. A dinner salad with a meat or protein.

When I'm back home in Singapore, mom's a housewife and always makes sure there's a glorious homecooked meal on the table for dinner. But Sunday morning's are "market day" with mom. We have brekkie at one of the many coffee shops or hawker centers (usually noodles: minced pork and fishballs (bak chor mee); vinegar-soused (lor mee); in a sweet potato gravy (mee rubus); etc.) then it's on to the hard work of carrying all her purchases as she goes around bargaining and selecting produce.

Growing up, my mother would always make buttermilk biscuits from scratch on Sunday mornings. She'd always save a bit of uncooked dough for me and my sister, which I considered the best part of the meal.

I don't observe the weekly habit, but when I was growing up, Tuesday was always fish day, because that was the day that Smitty, the fish man, came down our street with his truck! There was a vegetable truck, too, set up like a little grocery store, with a customer's scale and everything.

Sunday was always "roast" day, beef, pork or veal. My mother told us that the veal was "pork" otherwise we wouldn't eat it...because pork was our favorite. Mashed potatoes, fresh green vegetables (when in season)...delicious. Saturday night in Winter was homemade Boston Baked Beans and baked ham...fabulous! Don't know why but in warmer weather Saturday dinner was just sandwiches..??
