Eat at home

Hi to everyone new.
I'm too tired to cook tonight so DH is firing up the grill for burgers. I discovered today that making is spritz cookies is the adult version of play dough fun factory. Fun factory was a little easier to load though than the cookie press if I recall correctly.

I'm doing the cookies and other treats this weekend. Luckily, I have extra of everything in case my first try at spritz cookies doesn't work.

So tonight was the garlic lemon tilapia and zucchini fries. It's pretty good. Fries didn't crisp up as much as I would like, but I think I messed up a bit too.

Here are the recipes:

Last nights dinner was a disaster. A funny disaster, but a disaster none the less. I made a grocery list while I was baby sitting and my boyfriend ran to the store to help me out. So I went to start dinner last night, and I was making a recipe I found on pinterest, and he'd forgotten to buy a key ingredient. So I decided to make broccoli cheese soup, and he'd forgotten to buy two ingredients for that. UGH

Luckily, I had pasta sauce, pasta and I found some chicken in the freezer, and was able to pull a dinner out of my pocket. Thank goodness.

Tonight we are going to see Santa, and I'm hoping for not much of a wait. We've had to wait for hours before. Our town has gotten way too big way too fast, but it's the only Santa and Mrs. Claus she's ever taken her picture with. Depending on how long this takes, we might end up with dinner at the mall.

Had a change of plans last night, pulled out a frozen pizza & served with baby carrots & apple slices. Made the pork stir fry & broccoli tonight. Note to self: don't make a dish that needs constant supervision when you need to pick up a kid @ 5, another at 5:30, & have everyone fed, dressed (including dd's Nutcracker hair & makeup) & in the next town over by 6:30. We made it, but tonight would have been the better frozen pizza night!

Last night we ended up at McDonald's instead of subway and spent $6.40 - we had a McChicken, McDouble, a 4pc McNugget, 2 small fries and small drink to share (i figure Subway would have been like $6 with two of the $2 6" subs and a drink) tonight we are having the frozen Pizza and Mac and Cheese balls

Last night we ordered from Dominos... I had to work late, almost 3 hours later than normal, so I ordered from my phone, on my way home, and it arrived when I did.. I know I was bad, but in a pinch I needed help!

I was a bad girl today and went out to Michael Symon's B-Spot for lunch. It was super yummy and worth every single calorie.

Did 1 more day of Christmas shopping yesterday with my mom & finished up! Well, except I'm on the hunt for a platinum Keurig at the $99 price, I might drive to another town to check there. After the long shopping day, made spaghetti with pre-browner hamburger from the freezer, along w/ salad & frozen garlic bread. DD5 had a friend for dinner & I took the kids to see Happy Feet 2 in our small town theatre. ($5 for adults,$3 for kids, & super cheap snacks, we luv our theatre!). Will switch the menu & have slow cooker chicken enchilada soup tonight, as the kids have b-ball this am, the inlaws will be here for the afternoon & dh & I have a neighborhood holiday party tonight.

Dh ended up going to the neighborhood party alone, as I had a headache, so the kids & I had a snacky dinner of cheeses, ham, crackers & clementines (& Schwanz peppermint ice cream). Tonight is finally the meatloaf, mashed potatoes & veggie.
