Wet your Whistle Wednesday

Hi!

I made it thru the bookclub meeting!  It actually went fine and wasn't a big deal.  There was a time when I would've been more nervous about hosting something, but I'm starting to grow out of that!  Anyway, there were just 3 other ladies and me.  We talked about the book, Wolf Hall, which nobody liked and other things.  The kids behaved themselves in the kitchen and got to bed on time.  ;-) And the house is nice and clean for when we'll put up Xmas decorations next weekend after American Thanksgiving!

We got our first snowfall last night.  Not too much, though and it will probably melt away tomorrow when it's supposed to warm up a bit. Here's a pic of the back yard.

Here's what we're eating this week.

• Mon-Chicken Nuggets, Quinoa, Carrots
• Tues- Frozen Lasagna, Arugula Salad, Bread
• Wed- Black Beans (based on this slow cooker recipe)
• Thurs- Haddock Cakes (based on this and/or this using leftover rice)
• Fri- Pizza
• Sat- Leftovers
• Sun- Roast Chicken Soup made by HH (we are starting a new thing where HH will make soup for dinner on Sundays! :-) )

Last year's meals.

• Mon- Frozen Chili
• Tues- Salmon Cakes, Green Beans
• Wed-Stir-fry frozen veggies, Marinated Tofu
• Thurs- Pumpkin Carrot Loaf, Not Mashed potatoes (cauliflower?) Beet greens
• Fri- Panebello Pizza
• Sat- Leftovers
• Sun-  To inlaws for dinner.

No school on Friday.  I see on my grocery list last year that I had already started on making my Christmas Craft gifts.  Must think of some things for this year....
