Easy Supper!!

The other day I saw a recipe in the Publix ad for a Mediterranean Scallop Dish. Well, I love scallops, but Frank doesn't really care for them, so I was thinking this over and came up with a similar recipe but with everything I had here at home and it was so easy and so good! My ENTIRE family liked it!!

1 pound boneless skinless chicken (cooked in a bit of olive oil and Italian Dressing--go easy on the oil because the dressing has oil in it also)
2 boxes of Green Giant Simply Steam Vegetables--Broccoli and Carrots with garlic and herb seasonings
Spaghetti Noodles
Italian Dressing

I cooked the chicken, cooked the vegetables and cooked the noodles. I put the noodles and veggies in a casserole dish and tossed them with Italian Dressing---be careful not to use too much and make it watery. Add the chicken and voila! you've got a fantastic meal!! Add some garlic bread and it will look like you worked very hard on this easy meal!

Where's the milk for these Cheerios, Mom?

Our Day at the Park

Last week Mari Cate had a field trip to the Science Theater. I didn't go to the Science Theater but, I met up with them at the park for lunch and fun afterward. Hayden did NOT want to get off the swings and had a ball pushing his stroller around by himself! Be sure to click on the collage for bigger pictures!

My Deal for the Day!!

Today I went to Publix (one of my newest favorite stores!!--I only wish we had one here in Cleveland!!)

They had Yoplait yogurt on sale for $2.50 Buy One Get One Free, so $1.25 each (and they do let you purchase only one of them at half price by the way). But I had two coupons for $1.50 off of one 4-pack. I also had a coupon for 50 cents off of a 4 pack (which doubled to $1.00 off) of Yoplait Fiber One yogurt, which was also on sale buy one get one free.

I also bought Conner a pack of cheese and crackers and I paid........................are you ready????

A total of 59 cents!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Woo Hoo!!!!!!!!!!!!

Young Marines

Most of you know that Conner is part of the Young Marines program. He has acsended to the rank of Lance Corporal and we are so proud of him. Anyway, I wanted to share a few pictures I snapped while he was at drill this past Saturday...of course I embarrassed him, but that is my job...well sort of ; )

I also wanted to share a picture from the Young Marine's National Magazine "Esprit". For Veteran's Week back in November they hosted a dinner for the local veteran's. Their picture was featured in the national magazine...so that was pretty cool!

You can find more details about the Young Marines program here.
