I preheat the oven to 375 to bake the bread and to keep the chicken hot until my wife gets home.

Just then, my wife opens the back door and yells, "I'm home!"

She comes into the kitchen, and helps with chopping the tomatoes to add to the sauce.

I also make sure that there is a spoon, knife, fork, and plate for each of us.

About 15 minutes later, we sit down at the table in the dining room and talk about our long day.

First, I put some of the leftovers in a Tupperware container and some in plastic wrap and the rest in aluminum foil.
