Food Friday

I am loving the 99 cent strawberries in our local grocery stores these past few weeks and look forward to more of it in the coming weeks. Whoo hoo! I have frozen several bags of them for the summer months. I went to Bald Knob this week to visit Lindsey (she is doing really well, by the way. Thanks for your prayers!) and drove through the Bulldog and asked if they had their famous strawberry shortcakes yet and they said not until this next Monday...I nodded and said I would be back! They aren't as good as they used to be at the Bulldog, but they are still pretty good. If you are ever around Searcy in the Spring, you should drive to Bald Knob for a strawberry shortcake, I know I will be driving over that way again pretty soon!

Fish tacos are one of my new favs. We had fish Friday at our house last week and made fish tacos. Granted, it was just Henry and me home on Friday night and he chose to throw a fit and eat nothing but chicken nuggets, but I enjoyed them alot! I used tilapia, fresh lime juice, all sorts of spices that I just got in my cabinet and used without keeping track, avacado and salsa. Yummy-o! Randall is a fan of these so I am anxious to try them again real soon while he is home for a few days between planting locations. It made a good bit of leftovers, which we love at our house!

My new love! I found these at my local grocery store last week when I was craving something sinful, but not too sinful. I saved the wrapper because I liked them so much and showed it to Randall incase the Easter Bunny needed a little hint for my basket....I REALLY like these, just sayin!

My little Foodie is always busy in the kitchen. He has his own pull out drawer full of all my plasticware. He has his favorites that he always pulls out and that red lid on the floor is his top pick. I love that child, messes and all!

Happy Food Friday!

I love this week's post! I had a drawer for MK to play in too. That brought back memories. I had fish tacos about 2 weeks ago and they were awesome. It has become a new fav or mine too.

All Aboard The Birthday Polar Express

  Can you believe Henry Patton will be 4 years old tomorrow?! Neither can we. We celebrated his birthday last weekend with his first all boy party, polar express style. I had so much fun preparing for it, as you can probably tell! My mother who is never at a loss for words said it looked like Polar Express threw up in my house. She was SO right and we loved it! We had a breakfast pajama party with 7 three and four year old boys. It was such a fun time.   I had his pajamas monogrammed with a train and his name. He loved them and I liked how they sort of looked like the ones on the movie. Henry loved all the bells I had everywhere. There is no doubt we believe at this house. We had the jingle loud and proud!   I had his invitation made from a shop on Etsy and I was very pleased with them. One of his little friends came to the door ready for me to punch his ticket. It was so cute. I ran to get a hole punch and punched it for him. Every good p...

Meet Shaun

This is my single co-worker and church friend, Shaun. He and I have so much fun bantering back and forth. He takes what I dish out and scoops it right back up and hands it back to me. He is a keeper for that and many other reasons, which I will share on this post. He was kind enough to allow me to highlight him on Kelly’s Korner http://www.kellyskornerblog.com/ for her singles link up. His last words to me about this were, “ This better not be an embarrassment! ” I trust I will do my best to make it not be, but I make no promises! The first thing you need to know about Shaun is that he loves Jesus and the Boston Red Sox . He asked Jesus into his heart at age 8 and is still seeking and serving him today at age 26. Shaun graduated from Arkansas State University with a degree in digital media and design. When he is not busy creating masterpieces for our customers he is hiking, watching the Red Sox , playing basketball, horsing around at the lake or beach, and watching movies. He is fu...
