Happy Thursday!


Someone is comfy and cozy taking her long afternoon nap. :)


One meal I made this last week was orange chicken, fried rice and homemade eggrolls.  Eggrolls are very easy so don't be intimidated by them.  And they are just as good as leftovers.  I got the last two!


This is the last bit of the red beans.  It's hard to believe how fast a stock pot goes in this family!


I tried making fried rice as I said.  When I went by the recipe, it didn't really have any flavor.  I had to add A LOT more sauce and seasonings.  So I want to go over more recipes to see how to improve.  A whole batch was gone in one day so I guess it was good.


One of my yearly goals is to have a monthly date with each girl.  Since Addie is here most of this month, we had a date yesterday.  This month's date is Subway - I got some good coupons in the mail to make it affordable. :)
Pray for her as she flies out tomorrow to go back for her second semester of college in Florida.


Sierra has done three days of work so far this week.  She finally got her shirt and hat.  She's doing well and I'm proud of her!


Lastly, a little chuckle for you.  Happy Thursday!

Happy 45th Birthday, Eric!

  Happy birthday to my husband, Eric!   He turns 45 today.  I am surprising him with tickets to a Miami Dolphins game in Miami.  I got him tickets one other time years ago when we lived in Reno.  We drove to Oakland to see the Dolphins play the Raiders.  I think this will be a great memory for him and a home game too! Happy birthday, babe!

Recipe: Chicken Parmesan

  Chicken Parmesan This is a delicious recipe from Magnolia Table: Volume 2. 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts  1/4 tsp. kosher salt 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 2 large eggs 1 tsp. garlic salt 1 sleeve (30-40) buttery crackers, crushed 4 oz. Parmesan cheese, grated (about 1 cup) 2 tbsp. olive oil 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice 1/2 cup mayo 1 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley (optional) Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. (I cut the chicken breasts in half to make thinner.).  Season with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and garlic salt until combined.  In another bowl, combine the crackers and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan.
