it was very good. I wouldn’t put the no boil noodles too near the top because they sort of burned a bit and got too dark and were hard but once you got around those the flavor of the lasagna was quite good. I’d have to say the tenderloin was the biggest hit, and the meatballs. I lost a contact lens [what else is new] on Sat PM just before bed, so yesterday, in my half blind state, was quite a comedy of errors. First off, the chili sauce bottle was shaped very similary to the cocktail sauce bottle so when adding to the meatballs yesterday AM before church i mistakenly dumped in the cocktail sauce. It wasn’t the standard grape jelly/chili sauce recipe anyway, it was a cranberry sauce/chili sauce with a can of pineapple thrown in recipe. The cocktail sauce did not really show up in the flavors other than to make it a bit too tomato-ey. So i added some brown sugar and apricot preserves to it. It was quite good and people were raving.
And being half blind made reading at Mass a bit of a challenge yesterday. I literally had to lift the book up off the podium, raise it closer to my face and angle it, in order to see it at all and even then just barely. My contact lenses are mono-vision, which means the left eye is corrected for distance and the right for close/reading. Well i lost the right lens, so while i can see to drive etc. reading and anything close is quite difficult.

Oh no - I can relate - my eyes have changed lately and I'm going for new reading glasses this week. I feel blind again, even with my reading glasses on.

Thanks for the tips on the lasagna - I will plan to make it one day soon.
