Right now I am sitting at my kitchen table eating dinner at the very chic and fashionable hour of 9PM. I taught lessons today until 8, came home, kissed the big girls goodnight, nursed the baby, sent my husband outside to have a beer with the neighbor, and made my dinner.
There were 3 roasted chicken breasts on the counter and some sticky mini raviolis in the strainer on the stove. I looked in the fridge for some sauce, but it had mold on the lid, so it was a no go.
Logically, I sauteed the ravs in olive oil until they were crisp, added a diced tomato and some basil and oregano, a touch of salt and pepper, and melted mozerella on top.
I sliced off a portion of the chicken and VIOLA! Supper!
I keep forgetting to take pictures of my food!
My long day started at 5AM with the middle girl shouting about her bad dweam. (her pillow was chomping at her) Her loud voice wakened the baby who was hungry. So I comforted and nursed, they both went back to sleep for an hour. I got up.
