tonights blog

             So I ran tonight, and that has nothing to do with anything but I just wanted to tell everyone. I don't like running. I actually hate it. I keep waiting for the day I will enjoy it, but I don't see that happening. But I will keep doing it because, just because.

          Okay, on the food! My older kids spent the night with friends last night so I just had two kids to fix breakfast for and because I was tired this morning all they got was cereal. But to make sure this doesn't happen tomorrow I made two batches of biscuits for sausage biscuits and two batches of banana muffins! So that takes care of breakfast for a least a couple of days!

            Lunch in our house is super boring, its really just sandwiches, everyday. Seriously. Or leftovers. Parker likes the beans I made last night so he will eat those for lunch. We got to go swimming at a friends house this afternoon and my sweet friend bought jelly beans because we were coming over! You gotta love friends who have your back when it comes to candy! She also got goldfish crackers for my kids who, I'm not kidding, ate themselves sick because they knew they weren't getting that at our house!

         The dinner I made was interesting. It is a recipe Ray brought into our marriage! Ok, here it is....one pound hamburger meat, like 3 or 4 potatoes, and eggs. You cook the meat, add the diced potatoes and cook them until they are done them add the eggs and scramble it all around. Yep, thats it. My family eats it like crazy. CRAZY! They love it. I on the other hand had left over beans. I'm not as crazy about it as they are. This is not the only recipe Ray has contributed to meal planning. There was this one time he offered to make dinner and he made meat loaf. Oh my goodness, I will never forget it. He used a package of brown sugar cinnamon oatmeal and bbq sauce in the mixture. Then he made potatoes and covered all of it in gravy. It still makes me laugh. But I ate it, all of it. I will never discourage him from cooking, so I will eat anything he fixes!

       Anyway, enough making fun of Ray. Almost. He is just looked at me and started talking about how upset he was that his Greek class is almost over. Ok. Blank stare. Whatever. I'm only using $300 for groceries this month, get over it. I of course didn't say any of that.  But I am glad Greek is over. Greek takes up way to much time. Like part time job time. Like studying for several hours every night time, like drive to Dallas and back time.

       And that was today. I just realized I have yet to mention Molly Kate, or Molly Cake as Ray calls her. She is missing out on all the fun around here. She is of course maintaining her steady diet of formula. She goes to the doctor tomorrow for her two month check up. I can't wait to see how much weight she had gained. I'm sure you all are dying to know too, so I'll let you know on tomorrows blog.
