Start of Sierra's Birthday Weekend

Friday, October 13
School - Day We begin nine weeks exams today for the end of the first grading period of the school year.  It is a very warm day and very muggy and humid.  Hopefully, by the afternoon, the clouds will break and the humidity will lower.

Eric landed in Chicago this morning.  They had a red eye from San Diego to Chicago for their second work event. I got to talk to him for a little while in the afternoon.

I worked on prepping next week's school things.  I also did grading and the girls finished up some quizzes and started on their exams.  I made a batch of dough for sourdough dinner rolls and a loaf of sourdough bread.

After school, Summer made one of Sierra's favorite meals for her birthday - Baked Feta Pasta.  We also had broccoli and I baked the sourdough dinner rolls.  We ended the day with root beer floats and a movie.



Love when we have a clean house. :)



Autumn changed around her room and added in the dresser I got her.



Cooler weather on the way.


I knew there was a reason to get larger tables - for a cat bed!



Silly boy.

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.
