What we ate Tuesday

I thought I would try something new with my blog and have a theme on Tuesdays. So here is the first one. What I fixed for dinner Tuesday:


I love cookbooks but hate recipes. I know that sounds weird but I like looking at the pictures then trying to figure out how to fix it myself. I usually don't even look at a cookbook just try to put something together on my own. Today I started cooking dinner this afternoon. First I cut up the veggies tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, and cucumber. I mixed that with a little olive oil, salt and pepper and lemon juice and I let that marinate in the fridge all day. Then tonight with Mykenzie's help I baked some chicken tenderloin and pasta. The chicken had some lemon pepper seasoning on it. Before mixing it all together I warmed the veggie mix up in a sauce pan. It was delicious topped with a little feta cheese or parmesan cheese for the kids. Everyone loved it!!

{Embrace} the Camera

 
Today I'm {embracing}Mykenzie
 
Due to bad weather we have been cooped up for almost 2 weeks so today we risked the roads (which aren't that bad anymore) to go over the my VBF's house. Since today is {embrace} the camera Martha had a little photo shoot with me and ZZ. I think they turned out really good. Leave a comment and let me know which is your favorite.

Embrace the Camera


I am finally embracing embrace the camera! I would like to say this will happen every Thursday but I would hate to break that promise. 
 
Today we finally ventured out and played in the snow and it was so fun. But sadly there aren't any pictures. And for living in Oklahoma I am embarrassed to say we own NO snow clothes so we lasted about 15 minutes and then it was inside for popcorn and hot chocolate. 
Dude went to check out the roads to his dad's shop and Z girl is with him so the first shot is of me and Drew chillin on the couch. The picture of me and Z is from last week. And if only Martha reads this at least I'll know I made her proud by finally embracing the camera! 
 
(P.S. I am working on my poem should be up in a couple days)
