Warmer Weather Recipe

Here's the recipe I mentioned in my post from earlier this week.

Ingredients:
3/4 box of any pasta (I usually use angel hair or the one that looks like my hair)
Small container of pesto (or you can make your own)
2 chopped tomatoes
Feta cheese
Mozzarella cheese
Your favorite flavor chicken sausage (I recommend the sun-dried tomato by Al Fresco)

Directions:
Cut sausage and saute lightly in olive oil.
Boil pasta and drain.
Mix both with cheese, tomatoes and pesto (you won't need the whole container, a little pesto goes a long way).
Once it's all together I like to keep it on low heat for a few minutes to melt the cheese a little.

So good! And a great dish for the spring and summer. It even tastes good cold the next day.

Why my kids need to watch more TV.....

Here's where part of our dinner ended up Monday night...all over the rug and kitchen floor, thanks to my little friends AJ and Eliana. Fortunately I had another box of pasta suitable for the yummy dish I was making, hmm should probably post that for you all soon! Oh and did you know? Small shells+plastic Easter eggs = great instruments.

At least they were cheerful cleaning it up!

More dancing......

This is next weekend...hope you can make it!

Quotes from my Kids

Eliana: (as we pull into the doctor's office) "Hey, they have crackers here!"
Pediatrician: "Do you eat vegetables AJ?"
AJ: "Well, I ate a carrot one time."

AJ ate some rice!

That's right....2 pieces!!!!! I had to go back and check but the last time you crazydancemomma followers read about AJ eating some of his dinner it was December, and prior to that it was July. So that's 5 months between July and December but only 3 between December and March. Now if that's not progress I don't know what is.

New Job

Today Jonathan started his new job and was very excited about it. We, of course, are very proud of him and hope he likes it. Although I must say one of the perks of having him home was that the mornings went much more smoothly than when I am here trying to get the kids ready by myself! Oh well, all good things must come to an end I suppose.

Guess What?

Yes there are 2 lines there. I'm 12 weeks along. Due date is September 23rd.

The Bachelor

Now I don't really watch this show since "24" is on at the same time and that is THE show for me for the week but last night was "The Bachelor" finale where he chooses between the final 2 girls and proposes. So I watched to see who he picked and immediately after they have interviews with him and the girl and also the one who got rejected. So in the past 6 weeks he's decided he doesn't want to be with the one he's engaged to and wants the other girl now. So he breaks the bad news, the chosen one leaves and then the reject comes out and he tells her he wants another chance. She looks confused but then, and this is what KILLS me, she gets all giddy and she kisses him and basically says OK!!!!!!!!!! What is wrong with some women today? At least make him sweat a little, say maybe and give him time to show you that he's serious and make him work a little. So pathetic!!!
