It's busy Monday and I get to start it w/my favorite, acupuncture. After I get my weekly dose of relaxation and healing I'll run some errands and then make chicken soup, as requested by dh. Time to put on my jetpack and face the day.
What's on your menu?
Have a great day and a happy week.

We're having Italian beef, rice, rolls, and to add color to the table, I'll roast broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, corn, and tomatoes.
I know all of you were losing sleep because I didn't post over the weekend. You will be able to sleep well tonight knowing that Saturday was take-out and Sunday I made a chicken and vegetable sheet pan meal.

A bit of a frustrating day for me today. I went to see my GP for a follow up and to get a referral for physio, only to find he is on vacation this week. I am as much annoyed at myself for not checking his website before I headed in (and for not going on Friday, like I should have, but was tired). It is really cold here - we had snow overnight and sleet this morning, but not enough to stick to the ground. I am making a Thai red curry for dinner to warm us up a bit.

Cold....and we'll get more snow tomorrow. Winter is here! And it makes me want to get my Christmas decorations out of the boxes.
Dinner? The roast we didn't have yesterday. And Christmas cookies for dessert (some of those we bought on Saturday), I doubt any of the cookies will last until Christmas........

For our dining pleasure this evening we will be enjoying left over gizzards cooked in the crock pot along with a tab bit of leftover mashed potatoes and gravy from lunch yesterday. We will enjoy some sort of vegetable with those fabulous left overs.......we have an 8th grade boys basketball game at 4:15 so it will be good and dark when we get home for the leftover palapalooza......
Happy Monday Everybody!

Pork with apples-it is one of our favorite meals. I buy boneless pork chops and season them with salt and pepper. Aldi has great (thinly sliced) pork chops that work well-today I happen to have thick ones from Trader Joes's. Then I cook them on each side for a few minutes in the frying pan with some butter. Remove them and slice up several apples as thin as I can. Saute the apples with butter, brown sugar and the pan juices from the pork chops. You have to take some time with this and make sure the apples are cooked all the way through, browned and soft. Then I return the pork chops to the pan and warm them up. Can serve this with stuffing, mashed potatoes or even buttered egg noodles. It really is delicious.

I'm making pasta with chicken sausage and spinach tonight. I might bake tomatoes as well. I'm not very inspired or hungry but need to have something to put on the table as the kids fended for themselves all weekend and the fridge is pretty bare.

As soon as I typed that I started thinking about Kathy Bates. I'm your number one fan. Did you see Misery? Bahahahahahahahaha. Ok, I think I just creeped myself out. used2scrap, Hoping that you and your youngest feel much better quickly.

I'm making white chicken chili that I was suppose to make last week. I am also going to make jalapeno cornbread and call it a night.
This morning it was 1 degree.
We finally are out of FAFSA hell. It took a couple calls to our accountant. Geez, what a pain in the butt that was!!

Ugh. I just got my FAFSA email reminder. It's a horrible website and impossible to finish. I'm dreading it. I'll just pay full price for college, thank you very much. If I could send you a big comfy blankie I would do so. It's time for hot cocoa. Thank you scrappintoee. Hoping you can get some good rest after your busy Monday. leannec, thank you posting that yummy recipe. That is total dh food.

I was short on time today because I had to run an errand right when I should have been cooking dinner, so we stopped and picked up McDonald's for the 8yo. Then I felt guilty so we came home and I cooked broccoli, too. I just had leftover chili rice with it. And M&Ms when the kid wasn't looking. LOL

I am going to call one of the doctors my GP lists as back-up for when he's away. The one I am going to call is in the same building as my GP and I believe also speaks reasonable English. It didn't occur to me until I got home that I should have just taken the elevator straight up and asked for an appointment on the spot. Update: rang other Dr and have an appointment for midday tomorrow.

DD and I had home made rice paper rolls with home made peanut dipping sauce. That wasn't quite filling enough so we cooked up some roti to have with the peanut dipping sauce as well.
