- I was home all day today while my new carpeting was being installed. It turned into a cooking & baking marathon. I tried the Millet Meatballs recipe which was sent in by recipe and was able to come out with 7 patties which I baked in the oven. I served them with the Chicken with Peaches & Onions recipe Angel Food Cake for dessert. I hope my DH doesn't expect me to stay home and cook like this again soon.
