The bathrooms are looking good and I hope to show them to you soon… but for now… how ’bout a quick dinner idea. Are pictures ok?
And a little of that:
And some of this {minus the frozen sauce packet} or you could go buy carrots, red peppers, edamame, baby corn, celery, onion, water chesnuts and mushrooms. Then you could clean them and chop them… or you could just buy them all frozen and ready to go! :
Mix it all together after each has cooked and you’ll get this:
I used 3 chicken breasts, about 1/2 the bag of vegetables, about 1/2 the bottle of Stir-Fry Sauce and 1/2 a box of each type of spagetti {whole wheat and regular}.
I got all the ingredients from Walmart and while I was there I bought this too:
See you soon with bathroom pictures….

April 9, 2009 at 2:57 pmI have such a love/hate relationship with Walmart. I hate feeling like I’m putting small businesses out of business but I love their prices. Their food prices are often a dollar less for items than at the grocery store. When you’re buying groceries those dollars add up.

April 9, 2009 at 7:01 pmI need a quick and easy dinner!! I haven’t been cooking as much lately – being pregnant I don’t really have the energy to cook anything complicated and time consuming. I’ll definitely be trying that next week! (I’m hungry for it now…too bad it’s 10pm!) Can’t wait to see your bathrooms 🙂

April 10, 2009 at 6:07 amThat is so funny–I bought that shirt a few weeks ago and thought 1)am I the only person that is going to think this is cute? 2)is everyone going to make fun of me for buying my shirt at Walmart? So, thank you Darby for making me feel justified! I happen to LOVE that shirt! Hope yall have a Happy Easter!
