Friday's Thanks

1) Everybody agreed that it was a bum out kind of day -- overcast, cold -- perfect for snuggling on the couch!

2) Harry Potter marathon on ABC Family means quality time with Bubba :-)

3) Salad night -- and everybody ate them! It's been hard to remember not to eat meat on Fridays this year...

4) Took the kids to see Chronicles of Narnia: Dawn Treader (or whatever the real name is). It was really good! A bit scary at the end, but nothing overwhelming. Bones slept through most of it - then woke up for the end. He sat over in his seat, eating popcorn -- looked over at me and said "Mama, dat scare me to deaf"

5) My kids are good kids -- but not always super nice to each other. Tonight, though, Josh asked Grace to hold something for him (she didn't know he meant indefinitely) and she was so incredible sweet to him. I can't really describe the conversation, but she was so sweet.

i make taco beans (really just a can of beans - pinto or black, i usually have one of each - and add chili seasoning and onion and/or garlic powder to them) and put them microwave hot on my lettuce. serve with a sprinkle of chopped green peppers and a heaping spoonful of salsa and small spoon of sour cream and a dash of cheese and YUM! you don't even need salad dressing. can do chips too but i skip that. holly eats half of mine every time. no meat! easy, and cheap, too! makes a lot - sounds right up your alley!
