Well, this weekend was a quiet one for us and I really needed it to be. I spent Friday evening with my friend Michele and her three boys. We made fried rice and had spring rolls - YUMMY! Then Parker (Michele's youngest boy - he's 5) gave me a sack of pecans that he's been picking up and asked me to make him a pecan pie!LOL These are the little bitty pecans and it may be easier to purchase pecans to make him a pecan pie! He associates me with Chocolate and if I don't bring chocolate he thinks I don't love him anymore! He is a cutie! I'm doing very simple meals the next few weeks.
Sunday: Pork tenderloin cooked in crockpot with dry lipton herb soup mix, roasted potatoes, garlic biscuits
Monday: Chicken with garlic parmesan noodles and green beans
Tuesday: Class
Wednesday: Meal at the church
Thursday: Class
Friday: Homemade pizzas
Saturday: Erynn's first formal dance!!!!
I have been awful about not posting photos lately and I promise to get better about it. I have lost 3 lbs since starting WW 2 weeks ago. Last week was completely blown because of conferences we had a work and all the junk food laying around from my favorite bakery. So today is a fresh start on a new week. I quit going to the weigh ins because honestly - I can weigh myself in and pay myself the $10 since I can't ever make the meetings. Hope everyone has a great week and be sure to check out Laura's blog for more menus.

Mmmmmm I love pecan pie. But not shelling the pecans!
I enjoyed looking at your blog. The title drew me to it as I do one "The Life and Times of Tadley Bear" about an English bear at www.tadley-bear.bogspot.com and one called Artist's Progress at www.artistsprogress.blogspot.com. Why don't you send me a scrapbook page to pot up on a Friday or some different craft.Kind Regards, Sue
Angie - your crock pot pork recipe sounds yummy!
Hi-
Thanks for visiting my menu. Your's looks great! Here is my recipe for Chicken Curry:
1) Cook 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast & cute into bite size pieces. (I have baked the chicken earlier in the day and then cubed it or cut it up and then sauteed it before doing step 2.) Set aside.
2) Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in large skillet over medium heat. Cook 1/4 cup of chopped onions, 1 tablespoon of flour, 1 tablespoon of curry powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt in butter. Stir constantly until bubbly. It will be think like a grainy paste.
3. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup chicken broth and 1/2 cup milk (we use skin).
4. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly for about 1 minute. Add chicken. Cook about 3 minutes while stirring. Serve with white rice.
My girls love it-they call it yellow chicken. For pickier eaters, I would just serve them some of the cooked chicken (before adding the sauce) and rice with the veggie that you are serving.
