Monday Night Dinner

Today was a pretty quiet day. I could get used to this whole not working thing. Well I still miss my job (love what I do), so maybe one day I will be able to work part time. Anyway, Today we hung around the house, cleaning (it feels good to get some deep cleaning done that I usually don't get to do). We ran a few errands and then when Chris came home we all made dinner together. It was nice to be able to think about what to make for dinner before 6pm. In fact we were eating by 5:45. I love this being home thing. Usually I don't even get to think about what we will do or make for dinner until 6pm and then I am so over it all that we do something quick with little to no work or thought. But today around 11am I decided we would have Teriyaki Chicken, so I started marinating it then. I must say it was delicious. We had some rice and ceaser salad with it. The best part, Ethan loved all three things and ate a ton for dinner. I had the TV on after dinner and Cake Boss was on, it inspired me to do some baking, so I made some Snickerdoodle cookies from scratch. Today was a nice relaxing day. What did you all have for dinner?

Hi Amanda! I turned the TV on yesterday and it just happened to be Cake Boss on. I had never seen it before, but for some reason I got hooked and watched 4 episodes in a row!! By the way, we found out we're going to have a boy!

Silla I must have this Taco soup recipe. It sounds easy and delicious. We need to get together soon.

Kevin Congratulations on your future son. Boys are awesome. Ethan will await his new friend. :) And isn't Cake Boss great. I love it. I want to change careers to be a cake decorator, although I don't think it would pay as good. :)

Sounds like you had a wonderful meal! We bbq burgers last night. I love watching Cake Boss! Although it makes me hungry for sweets everytime I watch it.
