Yeah, I know, it's early


I need to clean out my freezer to make room for a couple gallons of homemade spaghetti sauce.
So I pulled out a 4 pound rump roast last night.
Perfect since the weather cooled and I don't cook on the weekends, this should last us until Monday.

I threw it in my slow cooker with some beef stock, lots of garlic, a couple onions, baby carrots, red potatoes, mushrooms, and fresh herbs from my garden (oregano, sweet basil and chives), and a family sized can of cream of mushroom soup.

I know that the smell is going to start getting to me around 3pm.

Sounds good maybe I'll be able to smell it around 3
I can't think about dinner right yet, I just ate a bowel of frosted flakes
The sugar is trying to get to me about now
and in a few hours I'll be depressed because the sugar will be gone, I'm going to make a roast this weekend, hubby works swing shift and he's off for 4 days I like to cook something good when he's home. When he's working who wants to eat a big ,eal at 1:30 in the afternoon. Hope yours in really good ...

We do Chinese food Fridays about once or twice a month.
$28 gets us a mountain of food


I like the spicy orange chicken myself

Both me and Brandon work tonight..and we both work at the same place on Friday and Sat. Nights, so we end up ordering pizza or pasta off of the menu.
Tonight though...I think I'll have a Salad, and some Garlic Bread. Yum. He'll probably get Pizza.
We get it for half-off when we work, so super cheap PIZZA!

DH and I have secured a babysitter and are going out to dinner, without children, for the first time in a long time. We haven't decided where yet...
