We are the Pirates.....


Tonight was our first family movie night with both kids! I fixed a low-key, throw together at the last minute meal so we could dine in front of the t.v. Lucas was amazed. We watched The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything- a delightful tale about three vegetables who step up and become heros. A very motivational show. Ava enjoyed the endless supply of graham crackers and I apparantly decided to not wear any make up today. Or fix my hair.


But the one person who's opinion mattered the most was enthralled by the movie. Lucas even got to stay up late; I figured we should celebrate since it is the last day of school. Fun was had by everyone.

And since then, I've been obessing over Season 2 of the Office on instant netflix. I think The Office is my all time favorite thing to watch, hands down. I've already seen it all - twice - but I can't get enough of it. I'm not kidding - I actually have it paused on the t.v. right now.

Gotta go and see what's going to happen with Jim and Pam. Woohoo!!!

Baby steps

Guess what? I'm taking steps today to get just a little closer to my dream. We're off to the gym in a little bit to keep working towards losing those 38 pounds. I'm also working on a plan to sell specialty homemade cheesecakes during the holidays. Doing something I love and making some extra money for the people I love. Pretty great stuff!

Special K

I have developed a rather fond relationship with Kellogg's Special K Vanilla Almond. Low in fat (only 1.5 g) and made with whole grains, I eat this tasty treat as a meal and a snack. I'm eating some right now. Special thanks to Kat for introducing me to this delightful cereal. Our local Ingles has been running it on sale this past week, 2 for $4, so I stocked up. The milk is even on sale too, 2 for $5, making this treat yummy and affordable. Sweet, crispy flakes and crunchy almonds. What more could a girl ask for. By the way, you should go to Ingles. Everything is on sale. I picked up some lean ground beef today for $1.38 per pound. Now that's good for the budget. Low prices + good food = happy housewife

Let's go shopping at Aldi's!

If you're shopping at Aldi's this week, I recommend that you stock up on Eggs and Milk! Seriously, a dozen eggs for $1.09 and Milk for $2.19! The price of beef may have gone up, but I'm loving the other staples we get from a cow! I bought 4 dozen eggs this week. Overkill for sure, but when our family eats eggs, we usually eat 7 in one setting! Eggs and toast are a staple breakfast in our house - we eat that at least 4 times a week! It's fast and filling and cheap! If you're looking for something more exciting to do with your eggs, try making a breakfast casserole! I love this casserole from Ree, the Pioneer Woman. Everything she makes is delightful, but this recipe is especially great! As with most recipes, I tweaked it a bit to fit our tastes. For all of his perfect aspects, my handsome husband does not eat mushrooms. This could have been a deal breaker for me 13 years ago, but then I saw his drummer toned legs and I decided to look past his misjudgment! No ...
