Stuffed Pumpkins on a Rainy Week

 Wednesday, November 15

Another overcast day here in Florida with a little rain.  The temp is in the low 70's so we still have the windows open enjoying some fresh air from outside.  Can't complain about that.  :)  We will still have our lights, candles, Christmas ambiance, and music going on to enjoy inside!

Just a throwback to these last baby days with Summer.  She was reading her book.

Miss our little Figgie.

Will be concentrating on school today - Day 62.  We don't want to get behind on anything during the holidays.  I also want to finish up my menu for Thanksgiving week which includes Wednesday's meal when Addie's boyfriend visits, Thanksgiving day meal, special foods for Friday and tree decorating, and the weekend (going to make a pot of red beans and rice).  Moms are the ones who make holidays extra special and it takes just a little extra planning and preparation to make and keep traditions big and small.  Special food is definitely a part of those traditions.  I want to have my menu and grocery list all ready to go now because next week is a busy week.  

I am also working on Christmas lists and starting to look for deals.  

Today's dinner is sausage & rice stuffed pumpkins.  I make these a couple times a year in the fall and it is probably my favorite fall food dish. :)  Yum!

Tonight is Youth Group and midweek Bible study.

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.

(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.
