Lasagna and Trifle Mmmmmm!
Good morning:)
The sun is shining and it looks like a gorgeous day:)
Jamie had a Dr’s appointment yesterday at Children’s in Chicago. I made a lasagna before we left so I could take over to the little boy I told yall about, Mikey’s, house in the afternoon. So we left Chicago at 2, picked up the kids at Aunt Kathy’s and made a mad dash home. I threw the lasanga into the oven and started my string beans with bacon and the chocolate chip cookies. I didn’t get a chance to make the bread… but Monica had told me that someone else was SUPPOSED to be taking food over there yesterday afternoon as well. I figured though, the lasagna would hold off for another night or could be frozen and the string beans would just get better if they set overnight anyway. Anyway, so I got that to their house around 4. Mickey looks really good:) They had just gotten back and he was feeling a little sick, but he looks really good. I think Jamie was relieved. I think he was afraid of what he’d see. After we dropped that off and visited for a few minutes, I ran down the street and picked up Elizabeth and Jacob. We were meeting Maria, Marko and Nina at the movies to see the Tale of Despereaux. That was a very cute movie:) We all enjoyed it very much. I want to see Marley & Me but I hear it’s very sad at the end. I haven’t read the book. I wanted too, but just never got around to it. Another movie that I would like to take the kids too is the Adam Sandler movie, Bedtime Stories. I hear it’s really cute too:) I called Paul after the movies and Maria called her husband and they met us at the Old Country Buffet afterwards. So it was a nice evening:) I mean, OCB isn’t my numero uno place to eat but the kids enjoy it and it’s very relaxed (and cheap!).
This afternoon, Matthew has a check-up and is getting his flu shot. I hope it doesn’t cause him to feel bad. But I’m giving him Motrin before we go. I think I may make another lasagna for us tonight. I will have to make Paul shephard’s pie or something but it looked so good yesterday and I haven’t had it in a long time. I’m leaving yall with the recipe for this and also Monica’s Trifle. I made it for desert on Christmas. The kids loved it. Paul doesn’t think of it as a trifle – being all British and all *ahem*:) but I think he really enjoyed it seeing as he doesn’t like real trifle *ahem*:)
Yall have a wonderful day and will speak to you soon:)
take care,
