Wow, half way through November already! This weekend we went to a lovely wedding in Fort Worth. It is amazing how one night away can recharge. (Away from the children.) Friday night we started a new Bible Study about marriage. We watched a Nooma video called Flame, where Rob Bell talked about the three different kinds of love that the bible describes. It was a great video. I wondered if the couple being married had were experiencing all three types of love. I am happy that we have all three in our marriage. It was very thought provoking... the video and then attending a wedding.
Last week Shawn helped me prepare the pot roast (browning it in oil) and ended up frying his hand and has second degree burns. The blisters have now deflated and I'm concerned that they're getting infected. He is keeping it covered with the burn cream the hospital gave him, with pads and gauze... changing it twice daily - but it is not looking so good. Never a dull moment in this house.
Our menu this week is entirely from recipezaar.com. Hubby is ready for lights out so I didn't have much time to look through cook books. (Sunday night we had a soccer party and ate dinner there.)
Mon: Garlic Rosemary chicken breasts in the crock pot, mashed potatoes, sauteed zucchini. (5 cloves minced garlic, 1/2 cup of melted butter, 1/2 cup white wine, 1/2 chicken bullion cube, 5 sprigs of fresh rosemary - all in the crock pot with frozen chicken breasts all day on low.)
Tues: Pistachio Asparagus stuffed Tilapia, orzo pasta, strawberry spinach salad. (The recipe for the fish is on recipezaar.com under the title - looks delish! Strawberry spinach salad is a pint of sliced strawberries, baby spinach, dressed in 2 Tablespoons strawberry jam, 1 Tablespoon balsamic vinegar, 3 Tablespoons olive oil - wisked together.)
Wed: Chinese pork tenderloin, rice, sauteed baby bok choy and carrots. (Recipe is under name "Spicy chinese pork tenderloin... got five stars on the ratings and is super easy.)
Thurs: Second soccer party - out for burgers.
Fri: Baked Penne with Spinach, Grilled Italian (turkey) Sausage, crusty bread (Recipe #78338 on recipezaar.com)
Sat: Having my boss and her family over. I'm thinking we'll grill beef tenderloin, have baked potatoes, some veggies and a nice salad.
Stay Strong!
