This past week, and upcoming week, are super busy for us. I am trying to find simple creative things to make for dinner. I am kinda losing my creativity at the moment.
T-Ball has started so now I have to factor that into our evenings…But I am not going to lie, I love baseball season. I didn’t get to the store yesterday to purchase food for the week, so we have to have pizza tonight. I don’t think the kids will complain.
I do hope everyone had a wonderful holiday yesterday.
We were at my mom’s for brunch, a very rainy egg hunt and then my sister made lasagna for dinner. It was great to spend the day with family.
I have been a little absent in writing lately. I had to get through Ian’s party last week so all my time was occupied on that. I actually had a couple of meal plan posts written and ready to go but forgot to post them! oops.
So here we are back on track. I have another race this weekend. It is a race I did last year as well, but I am now doing the 10K distance (last year was only the 8k). This race was the second race I ever did and it is really fun to go back and do it again.
So while the distance isn’t far, the whole race experience is somewhat exhausting so I don’t plan on cooking anything to complicated. Maybe some take-out or something is in order.
So yesterday (Sunday) I wasn’t sure what I was going to make for dinner. It was race day and so I knew I wanted something easy. The race was a 15k, just under 10 miles, which is a distance I usually run on the weekend, but there is so much more energy involved in races. So I didn’t want anything too complicated.
Turns out it didn’t matter what I planned. We lost power.
As did some 72,000 other people and businesses. I feel like this brief windstorm was unexpected. Or at least they didn’t expect it to do so much damage. Check out this YouTube video of some construction scaffolding being blown down yesterday in downtown. So needless to say I couldn’t do much cooking.
Luckily my sister made us dinner and let us stay the night so the kids could take a bath and Sid didn’t have to wear pajamas to bed.
He no longer likes to wear clothes to bed…in fact he didn’t even get dressed on Sat. When asked he says ‘nope. fine. yiper.’ Which translates to “Nope, I’m fine, I don’t need clothes cause I have my diaper on.”
Unfortunately we now have power again, so I have to continue cooking dinner. This week will be completely messed up and dinner plans will be changed because T-Ball is supposed to start and I am not really sure how that is going to work.
This kid will be celebrating his 5th birthday this weekend! Where does the time go?
