Marco's blessing

We had a really sweet experience for Marco's blessing at our home in mid November.

love the tie!

What a handsome little guy!
He was so clam and never made a peep - just looked around during the entire blessing.

baby in the house

Yep, we are smitten by this little one who lives so close by!

 Even Clyde who can't wait till babies are old enough to 'play' is smitten and wants grandpa time daily

He even shares his tv time with Marco!

getting creative for dinner

Started with bits of leftover roast, peas, cooked carrots, gravy and mashed potatoes.

Broke up the meat, added peas, carrots and gravy.

Heated that up in the microwave.

Served over a thin spread of warmed up mashed potatoes on the plate.

Super fast and tasted like pot pie without the crust, and without an hour of baking.  More like 10 minutes to pull it out and heat it up. Best kind of cooking.

Clyde liked it a lot.

Gonna add this to easy meals, after a Sunday roast.

easy and yummy

I created a little quick dinner recipe tonight. Super easy!

I had a bag of Aidells chicken  teriyaki pineapple meatballs from Costco.
I sliced some Torta rolls by La Brea bakery also found at Costco. (these rolls make anything taste great- you'll be hooked once you taste them.)
I heated the meatballs in some Yoshidas gourmet cooking sauce, just until it thickened and glazed the meatballs.
I broiled some pineapple slices. (canned!)
I served the meatballs and pineapple on the Torta rolls, and added a slice of Colby cheese. Any kind of cheese would taste great.  It was a big sandwich but delicious.

Fast and yummy! Definitely a new addition to my dinner options.

I did not take a picture.  I had no idea we would love it so much!
