NECCO WAFER!

Made in the U.S.A since 1847  Necco Wafer. (black and purple are my favorite!)  You either love 'em or you think they taste like chalk.

Spicy Fried Chicken and Read Beans n Rice

Know what I love almost as much as Popeyes? Yup, leftover Popeyes.  If you've never tried the red beans and rice, you ain't livin'.

full disclosure: I don't like tea

Ok sugary Chia latte YES but hot water that smells good? No thank you. My bath is hot water that smells good.
I never miss an opportunity to try something new though, so I took one tea bag and gave the rest to my tea drinkin' hubby.
If you like tea, this organic Thai herbal tea smells like footloops!

Stockin' up on soup

I always double soup recipes and freeze the rest (all this PLUS what we had for dinner!)
I used this recipe except I used Chicken stock in place of the water, I beefed up the oregano, basil and garlic because I love all three, and I diced and crisped up about a lb. of chicken andouille sausage and added near the end.

Super Sunday cont...

Couldn't decide on a snack so everyone picked one.  The cheeseburger sliders mentioned in the post below (they were pretty good, I didn't pass out from joy but I may make again), cookies, buffalo chicken dip, sausage meatballs and pigs in a blanket.

Thai Still

Still working through my Thai box (Try the World) and both me and my extremely finicky 9 yr old give this snack the thumbs up!

Thai green curry

Recipe was SO SO HOT!  I added a whole extra can of coconut milk and a couple Tbs of sugar and it still cleared my sinuses.  Made great leftovers for lunch today.
Curry paste from my Try the World box and with Thai flavored mini rice crackers.

Breakfast

This morning I made french toast with sourdough bread and spread with butter and lemon curd.  This WILL become a habit.
