comfort food

One of my favorite meals to make has become chinese potstickers. (A little burnt, I know, but Dave likes them that way) We had them last night for dinner with vegetable stir-fry and it was DELICIOUS. To me, they are the chinese version of mashed potatoes with gravy- totally comfort food. I could probably eat a dozen with sauce.

It's been a good week in the kitchen for me. Usually I have a hard time getting motivated to cook. Since the weather is finally getting colder I am more willing to spend time in the kitchen- to stay warm.

It's finally official!!

My sis-in-law is getting married! She has been dating her man for a year and practically had the wedding/honeymoon planned these last few months. The proposal was last week and now there's a ring and a date. June 2, 2007 is going to come quick. Yeah! Congrats Denise and Arnold!

What a guy!

Another hectic day at church with no hubby. Being Primary President (kids organization at church) is really hectic this time of year. We had the Halloween party to plan and the annual Primary Program to write and plan for next week. Li-Li and Tina, you two are the best counselors a girl could have. Thanks for all you do to help me and remember what I forget!!

Anyway, the chillies and I were fried after church- tired, hungry and ready for a nap! We pulled into the parking lot at our humble apartment complex and Dave's car was parked in our spot. Yeah, Daddy's home! But he was supposed to be gone until 5. We walk in to find this:

Not the best face on that cute hubby but that's okay. He came home early from board review class and had lunch ready for us when we walked in. What a guy. It was the best thing about the entire day. We ate and took a long snooze. All except TJ that is. That little guy will NOT settle down long enough to take a nap. He ripped apart his room playing and kept busy while we snoozed. It's a good thing J (his bunk mate) is a heavy sleeper.

Thanks babe! You're the best ever!
