12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 7

[becka]

Becka, you missed the DIS didn't you?? Was withdrawl really that bad??

You have no idea....

 

[goofyforlife]

Can't you just see the photographer standing there with an inflatable banana and asking everyone if they are one of the people who want their picture taken with it?

Naaa we'll be easy targets with our green mickey head shirts....

We'll have the first person (probably Kim and Lisa) take them up and say "put this in the photo with all people wearing this shirt"

(i pity anyone who accidently has shirts like ours)

 

[becka]

Let's get it sooner rather than later!!!!!

I think the energy burst we get from all the candy this month will really help us. We will all be posting high on candy corn, peeps, and CHOCOLATE!!!!!

morning all. Tuesday - fun stuff. One day closer to the weekend. Tonight I am going to stay off the computer and try and get some things done around the house.
We'll see how long I can stay away.

 

[becka]

I am still home for a while with the kids because they have 8:45 dentist appointments so while they watch a Mickey sing-a-long I get to catch up on the DIS.

Hopefully the appointments will go well but then I have to go to work and it is an hourly payroll day. Yesterday's agent payroll and last week's salaried payroll went really well so I am afraid it could be messy today. We can't have 3 really easy payrolls in a row.....

 

[becka]

It is going to be HOT here today. The high is going to be 95!!!! It is just way too hot for October.

 

[becka]

A milestone is getting closer....is anyone else lurking around to steal it?

 

[becka]

I probably should get dinner ready for tonight since I have time. I have a tortellini recipe that is so good but it needs to sit in the fridge for at least 8 hours before you bake.

 

[becka]

I just realized that I am getting closer to 10,000 posts. I wonder which will happen first - 40,000 posts on the thread or 10,000 posts for me?

 

[becka]

I just checked my profile and would you believe I have only averaged 3.70 posts per day! Of course I have been here a very long time.....

 

[becka]

Now to see if someone was out there lurking.....

 

[becka]

OK I really should go get dinner ready.....

 

[becka]

Dinner is ready to put in the oven....wasn't that quick?

Actually I probably should share it with you guys since it is so easy and yummy. It is not a crockpot recipe but it is about as easy as it gets.

1 jar alfredo sauce
20 oz pkg. cheese tortellini
1 pkg. broccoli florets
1 1/4 cups water
basil and pepper for seasoning

Mix alfredo sauce and water until blended. Season with basil and pepper. Add tortellini and broccoli. Stir well and then put it all into a 9x13 pan. Cover with foil and refrigerate for 8 hours. Bake at 350/375 for 45 minutes covered. Remove foil and stir, recover and cook an additional 15 minutes.

This tastes so good and we never have leftovers - even the kids love it.

Uh Becka i don't think those foods are on WW..... or any of our diet plans for that matter.

 

[lillygator]

sounds like a great dinner Becka! How many points do you consider that?

It should be in the 90's here as well. It was 75 on my way to work this morning. DH is off today. He is going to the Dr about his cough/cold. I should take Haley in this week as well. Friday is UF's homecoming, then a game Sat (vs LSU ~ scary!) and I would LOVE to go over to WDW on Sunday. Unfortunately, I doubt that will happen.

Everything in moderation, right?

oh yeah Moderation = 0 pts clause

I calculated 9 pts per serving with the full recipe being 6 servings which is not too bad considering you have alfredo sauce and cheese tortellini. It comes out to about 375 calories and 17.5 g of fat and 2.5 g of fiber per serving.

0 points clause?
