It's cooking time!

I had the chance to get to WalMart and Aldi's on Monday in anticipation of the storm and stocked up on all necessities! Food! I have been in cooking mode! I started with Chicken Noodle Soup, followed by a great meal last night for all of us (and 3 additional friends) of soft tacos, Spanish Rice, (from scratch, no boxed mix!) a tossed green salad complete with baby greens and an awesome homemade tuscan viniagrette. We finished with Blueberry/Blackberry Cobbler for dessert warmed with vanilla bean ice cream. Mmmmm...

This morning I prepared breakfast for us and Natalie and her three friends who she conned me into letting spend the night!  We had pancakes and ham and fresh fruit.  I was at day 10 for my Amish friendship bread, so made a batch of that and then started on dinner. I made a double batch of homemade pizza dough and we had a large hand-tossed pepperoni pizza and a deep dish pepperoni, sausage & bacon pizza.  Of course, I saved a little dough for my own deluxe pepperoni, mushroom, red pepper, onion and pesto pizza.  Oh my, oh so good!

The problem is that we have now had two days of no BB practice and no physical activity! Umm, these kids, and myself have been eating and eating and eating.  I think tomorrow I need to stick to cleaning....
