MoonMama replied: I have know idea....and its already 4:30.

luvmykids replied: Stuffed bell peppers, and I don't know what else.

mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied: Monica, what do you stuff your peppers with, sounds good.

I'm just breading some chicken thighs and baking them. I'm making a rice pilaf just from a box (easy peasy) and probably steaming a veggie. I went to the store today, so I have a lot of different fresh veggie options.

Mmmmm...Papa Johns pizza with the mega-bad-for-you saturated fat filled garlic dipping sauce....I want some.

$#*)*@ PG cravings are killing me already.


I'm not feeling good so we didn't eat dinner. The girls had mashed pototoes at grandma's around 5 so I just gave them some ham & cheese slices.

luvmykids replied:
Tonight I just did ground beef, rice, onion, garlic, tomato and mozzerella cheese. It's one of those meals I remember my mom making, comfort food

A&A'smommy replied: Jeremiah and I had a deer Roast and potatoes

Alyssa had peanut butter sandwhiches, raisins and water the joys of having a picky child

Calimama replied: Black bean Quesadillas

Part of me wants this over with tonight - but another part of me is looking forward to my baby shower tomorrow.

...and alex had plain pasta and lima beans...he doesnt like pizza at all but loves lima beans seriously

Calimama replied:
So does Miabella. Yucky!!

Brias3 replied: We had Caesar salad, minestrone soup and French bread.

luvmykids replied:
YUM, that sounds good. Did you make the soup?

MoonMama replied: I ended up making chicken caesar salad.

mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied:
I'm going to have to try that! My mom used to do something similar, but it was inside cabbage. Yes, definitely comfort food. I'm so into that right now being that it's sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo dang cold!!

Brias3 replied:
I did actually. I followed a new recipe and it came out decent!

FYI- I was actually thinking your peppers sounded good I think I might make those tomorrow night!

luvmykids replied:
Mmmmm... wanna share the recipe? I LOVE minestrone but only tried it twice and was disappointed

Rae, I love it in cabbage leaves too. Dang it, I'm hungry again

lisar replied: I cooked country fried steaks, mashed potatoes, white gravy, corn, and biscuits.

And tonight NOTHING, they can fend for themselves.

Brias3 replied:
Yes! I actually just found it online and have used it about three or four times and really liked it.

Here it is:

4 tablespoons margarine
3/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped carrots
1 (19 ounce) can cannellini beans
1/2 cup shredded cabbage
1 (14.5 ounce) can stewed tomatoes
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 1/2 cups cubed potatoes
1 quart chicken broth
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons dried parsley
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup elbow macaroni
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese


Melt butter or margarine in a heavy pot over medium heat. Add onion, celery, and carrots; saute for a few minutes.
Add beans, cabbage, tomatoes, tomato paste, potato, stock, garlic, parsley, and salt to the pot. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat. Simmer for approximately 1 hour until vegetables are barely tender.
Add pasta, and simmer for 30 minutes more. Correct seasoning, and serve hot with grated cheese.

Cece00 replied: We went "camping" for the day (my parents are camping, we went to meet them) and they did a big BBQ

Chicken, steak, potato salad, sausage, beans...the kids also had some grapes.

Calimama replied: I had fruit and hot tea. I'm not hungry for some reason.

luvmykids replied: I had Chickadees and the kids all had Ichiban, at the mall. We picked up Nikka and met my BFF there, ate and moseyed around. It was great
