Monday- Seafood night
Tuesday- Spanish foods
Wednesday- Breakfast foods
Thursday- Italian
Friday- Stir "fry"day (chinese food - and yes Joe named this day :P)
It is always fun trying to think of food to make under the themes. The hardest part is not being repetitive, so I try to introduce new meals each week. Last Friday I could not think of what to make for stir "fry"day! I always plan meals, but left that day empty! I kept looking on the internet and just couldn't figure it out! Joe and I LOVE PF Chang's Lettuce Wraps (we had them the night we got engaged!), so we both have wanted to make them one time. Joe suggested we had them on Friday. I looked at different recipes and decided there were too many ingredients! I told Joe we needed to think of something else. I had a secret plan in mind though....I wanted to make them and surprise Joe! Friday came and Joe still had no idea! I picked Joe up from work and then made him stay in the living room until they were finished! I brought him into the kitchen and surprised him! He was way excited! And guess what was better? THEY WERE DELISH!!!! I wish I had taken photos!
Monday was Canadian Thanksgiving! Joe and I were just going to have a frozen dinner, but we all know how yummy those are :P We decided we would make our own dinner. Since it was just the two of us we didn't want to buy a whole turkey. We ended up buy turkey breast cutlets! Then we had mashed potatoes, corn, stuffing, and rolls! It turned out great!! I was in heaven with every bite! We are having left overs again tonight....yummmyyyy!!!!!!
Because it is getting cold it is feeling more like Fall! This means all I feel like is warm foods, cinnamon and pumpkin! I had this HUGE craving for something pumpkin! It wouldn't go away...I was trying to resist because of the unhealthiness with everything I was crazing with pumpkin haha! I gave in and bought pumpkin chocolate chip muffins....I have been indulging ever since! I LOVED them!!! YUMMY!!!
Life is great! Joe and I are having the time of our life! We are enjoying my week off this week and have had a lot of time together!!
P.S. Only 4 more days until Fun.!!!! Can't wait to party with my hubby in utah!!!
