A Wreck and Recipes

Nothing exciting on the home front.  My husband and I were rear-ended in my car on Saturday.  Last time we were rear-ended he was driving my car, too.  I told him to mess up his own!  He did--once.

Insurance, car rentals, car repairs, what fun.  No one was hurt, thankfully, just inconvenienced.

I'm trying to not spend money this week since I'm going shopping this weekend.  I did buy myself a birthday present from my husband this past Sunday--a wireless printer.  I have a laptop and having to go connect with the printer every single time was old.  Too much exercise, anyway.  This one also has a scanner in it, so I can help my dad scan all the magazine articles that he's been collecting forever.  So happy early birthday to me! :-)

My mom, sister, and I are going to Richmond Friday and Saturday for girls' time for my birthday.  It's going to be cool weather, pretty sights, great shopping, lots of fun.  I'll be sure to share pictures!

We've been doing good eating at home this week.  Granted, it's only Tuesday, but that's besides the point.  I made potato soup last night, we're having chicken, green beans, and french fries tonight, sweet and sour meatballs with some kind of potato side tomorrow, and probably the rest of the potato soup Thursday night.  Guess who's still trying to think of ways to use all those potatoes she bought?

In the meantime, laundry awaits me today, so I'm off to do that.  Hope everyone's having a great week!
