How many times will I use the colander?

It's 10:47am and lunch/dinner is all ready!!! Brisket (cooked overnight in crock pot), grilled chicken, smoked sausage, potato salad, ranch potatoes (the kids do not like potato salad), corn on the cob, stuffed jalapenos, devilled eggs, veggie tray, and.....Mixed Baked Beans. This is a new one for me. I've had something similar at family reunions and cook outs, so I decided to try it myself. I used the left over sauce from the brisket, emptied all the beans below into it, added cooked ground meat, and an onion. All are cooking in the crock pot now....we'll see if it's any good!
Danny, who tends to wash dishes as fast as I make the mess (not complaining!)...was just washing the colander for the 5th time, he actually asked me how many times I was going to use it today. I said "AS MANY TIMES AS I NEED TOO, sweetheart!" Such a silly question....he probably doesn't realize that I'll use it now, even if I do not need it!

Even funnier? He and I are home alone.....Chelsey is on her way from Holly Lake Ranch with friends, and then headed to Lake Lewisville with Dallas. Colby is at Lake Texoma with Ashley, Tazz and the boys, they were going tubing today. Least Danny and I will have plenty to eat. Think I'll go find another use for the colender now. Happy Memorial Day!
