On the subject of the frig ...

Let's once again discuss my distate for making dinner.  I simply do not enjoy it.  I have done all I can to make it the most appealing to me and it is a little better.  But I have to say at the end of the day (errands, laundry, cleaning and kid corraling) I am not in the mood to make dinner.  I would much rather sit down to a meal made for me with my loving family surrounding me and enjoy the time together.  But .. since the cook has yet to show up for work I am still responsible for preparing the evening meal. 

Sigh ...

I got a little adventurous and checked out the Pioneer Woman website.  I will say it is not at all what I thought it would be.  It's pretty faboulous.  Every recipe comes with amazing photos and they all make the food look amazing!!!  I spent way too long perusing the site this am and ran out of time to hit the market before my lunch plans (with Lawyer and his boss) so Lawyer is the one who will be doing todays marketing.  We are having Chicken with Tomatoes and Garlic for dinner. 

I will let you know how it is.  I will say ... I do not like dark meat and I do not eat anything off the bone so there will have to be a s/b breast in there somewhere!

During my perusing I found many yummy things to try ...

Avocado Egg salad ... this is a complete no brainer!  I love egg salad and I am a huge fan of avocados. 

The only question in my mind is how many different ways I can eat this!!!

Vegetable Lasagna .. it looks delicious!

I can see this becoming a staple for the winter.

Chicken Tortilla Soup ... another staple for winter.

I could eat this twice a day!!!

I swear anything you can add cilantro to I would eat ...

well almost anything!

And then this recipe stopped me in my tracks!!!

Iced Coffee ...

... does that not look like the most delicious thing you have ever seen???

You make the coffee and store in the frig and then you can have iced coffees on a whim!  Or have friends over for iced coffee.  Or offer someone an iced coffee when they pop in.  The options are endless!

I may save one million dollars by giving up the Lucky Buck! 

Although I can't completely give up the Lucky Buck yet ...

unless I found out how to make a "venti Shaken Black Tea no sugar".

Hope you have a good one!!!
