Follow-up Friday


I actually stuck to the plan again this week.  I didn't exercise, however.  I was busy cleaning my basement and when I did have time, I was snuggled under blankets because it was so cold.  Oh well, life will go on.

Monday:
  • Motivated Moms schedule check
  • School check
  • the obvious things check
  • Dessert out with blog friends Even in the midst of a snow storm, we made it.
  • Office Day check
  • Still working on the basement, but making headway or should I say floorway.  I am finally seeing empty spaces. check
  • What's on the menu:  Chicken Parmesan & Penne  I ended up making something different because I didn't have any chicken breasts (my bad)  But I fixed Ham and Broccoli Pastry which was pretty amazing.
Tuesday:
  • Motivated Moms schedule check
  • School check
  • the obvious things check
  • Hobby Day

Wednesday:

  • the obvious things check
  • Kitchen Day 
  • Still working on the basement check
  • What's on the menu:  Foil Dinners These were delicious!  I am used to foil meals being made with chicken so when I fixed this recipe I was a little skeptical.  However, there has been nothing from emeals that I have fixed that we didn't like.  
Foil Meal Recipe:
1.5 pounds ground beef
(salt, pepper, aluminum foil)
1 large onion, thinly sliced
1 large baking potato, thinly sliced
4 carrots, thinly sliced
4-6 tablespoons butter

Form meat into 4-6 1/2 inch thick patties.  Season with salt and pepper.  Lay each patty on a large square of aluminum foil.  Top each with a few slices of onion, potato, and carrot.  Top each with 1 tablespoon of butter, add more salt and pepper.  Wrap tightly in foil, rolling ends to completely seal the package.  Bake in 375* oven for 25-30 minutes.  I wish I would've had biscuits to serve with it but I was to lazy to make them and I didn't have any frozen.
Thursday:
  • Motivated Moms schedule check 
  • School check
  • the obvious things check
  • Errand Day--If I have any to run out and get anything. check
  • Still working on the basement check

  • There is no THESIS this week so I will take advantage of the extra day and either work in the basement or make some jewelry for the craft show. And maybe have some school since I probably won't do much Tuesday.  I am still working on the basement.  I realized that January was almost up and I still have a lot of work to do.
  • What's on the menu:  Breakfast for Supper or left overs Going to my niece and nephews for dinner and games.  Yay!  No cooking for me, just some buffalo chicken dip.
I may update some things on my goals for 2013 and make an about me page, but I don't know if I will get time for that this week.  I'll put a tab at the top of the page beside HOME and you'll know when it's there.  I did set up a goal page but I haven't worked on the about me page yet.  

Until next time, stay blessed.
