The What's For Dinner Tonight Chat

[IrishHeart]

Just a quick pop- in. I want to go too! I think weight would limit the amount of flour we could bring. I would keep all the receipts, too. Might help explain it?

Last night we had some chili in the freezer and a bunch of partial bags of Ore- Ida fries, and some partial bags of shredded cheese. Guess what we had? .

We are cleaning out all the food. When the boys were home, we would need about 2/3 of a bag of fries. The partial bags would get pushed to the back.

Tonight we are having burgers and cantaloupe and potato chips and toasted marshmallows for dessert!

Tomorrow we are having some pasta with marinara, a little arugula, pesto and Italian sausage added to it.

 

You know....it's funny K, even though we don't have two teenage boys, but we also have partial bags of Ore ida's in the freezer. I guess my "one big boy" counts as a teenager? LOL

I've got these frozen taquito things in my freezer left of from my son.  I should probably toss em.

 

We had Hubs Famous Tacos tonight...very yummers and I'm munching on Caramel Corn for dessert.  

[IrishHeart]

geesh..almost forgot. I found Talenti Chocolate Covered Sea Salt Caramel Gelato Pops at BJs.

we walked a mile first, then ate one.

Now, you all know Sunday night is ice cream night in our house....so...

do you think it "offsets" the calories?   the walking thing?

c'mon lie to me.

 

ps. looks like even Walmart's has them!

He says that he doesn't even really pay enough attention to know the storyline and his kids have to explain it to him when it airs. So no, sadly no news on it. Although... he wouldn't actually confirm rumors of a reboot of The Tick but he strongly hinted at it!!! :D That should have been the highlight of my weekend, it really should have been, to do that video and have his arm around me for a moment and it really was amazing, but John Barrowman sang to us. They panned the room during it and I think everyone was recording it, it took about 5 minutes for that video to hit youtube. I didn't take chances, I have it on my phone. I'm more in love than ever.

We do Comic Con in September and FanX in April. If you ever wanna come you can stay with me, it's just an hour train ride up into the city. Stan Lee said we have the best con in the world. (I didn't stand in the line for his panel. Screw that!)

Tsk, tsk.  You girls are very, very naughty.    Lisa, I forgot to email you pictures.  I would love to add you to the living in Croatia emails.  There is soooooooooo much to catch up on and tell.  Perhaps I should start emailing a group of us celiac girls (no men allowed! ).  And I, too, thought of that white powder.  In fact, we had to encounter that coming over in May.  Everything was left unopened and sealed, just in case, but the 5 or 6 kg of not drugs didn't look good.  We got through, though, but sadly I wasn't searched as I had hoped.    Speaking of which, you would NOT BELIEVE the gorgeous men here.  Honestly, makes me blush.   Let me just say TALL, DARK and BEYOND HANDSOME.

 

Oh, yes.  Back to dinner. 

 

Tonight I am making pizza, topped with glorious mounds of fresh local cheeses and wild mushrooms.  Oh, and homemade pesto.  Not trying to make you jealous or anything...that is just so unlike me.

Add me to the email!  Tall, dark and handsome and pizza?  Now, if the countryside was beautiful......  Well then you would have something.  

[GF Lover]

Add Me  Tall, Dark and Beyond Handsome I have.  I'm in it for the spectacular views.....

[IrishHeart]

well, I've got that too, but there's nothing wrong with admiring the "view of other tall dark and handsomes".....

I call that a healthy appreciation for the human form. all looky, no touchy...like walking through a museum....

[GF Lover]

And I do love Museums...

I'm making zucchini potato pancakes for breakfast. Yummy and especially great since we just got gifted more zucchini! http://theprudenthomemaker.com/index.php/zucchini-potato-pancakes

 

I use Pamela's Artisan flour blend in place of the flour. Everything else in the recipe is inherently gluten free.

[IrishHeart]

After much thought (okay. maybe about 20 minutes while finishing my coffee which I did not spill or spit this morning, so yaay for me!) I am thinking a good way to utilize the rest of the roasted chicken (and by the way, those Vietnamese chicken salad rolls are ridiculously good, if I say so myself!) is to make

 

Chicken Tettrazini...with a side of roasted asparagus, so its "offsets" the fat/creamy content. <<this is my new theory, anyway.

 

Mondays are go to the fruit and veggie stand day (why you ask? wellll....because it's on the same road I drive on to go meet my friend for drinks by the water ! ) but

 

first, I have to go for a walk, then ride my bike over to paddle around the pool to work off some more of the chocolate covered gelato bomb from last night.

 

See? I have a plan! no, really, I do!  So glad to be rid of whatever was ailing me last week. Note to self: don't drink from the same water bottle as the hubs when he reports "My allergies are kicking up. my throat feels scratchy"...that was no allergy, you silly man....erg. 

 

Happy Monday, peeps! It's a beautiful day here in South Florida...hope yours is, too.
