One more day!!!

Well so much for chicken and rice for dinner, Mom is TIRED!!!! Takeout is definitely in order tonight! Today was an open to close day for me at work. Josiah had a T-ball game today at 5:30, which he didn't attend due to the fact that the uniform was MIA! Joe had softball practice today at 5:30 also, so it worked out well for him. On another note Joe and I rented a movie last night called 'World's greatest Dad' and it was horrible so stir clear of that! Just sayin....

GREEN shepherd's pie?

So I thought that I would try to be a little festive today in honor of St. Patrick's Day. (As I look for any reason to try something unique.) My idea was to make green mashed potatoes! Sounds great right? I just knew Joe and I would be fine with it because its just a little food coloring. So I made my shepherd's pie as usual, one of Joe's favorites, and just added the green mashed potatoes on top. Let me just say, Josiah is the type of child that won't touch any food that is green with a 10ft pole! So this didn't help him ease into Mom's cooking tonight, usually it takes a lot of coaching! :) Needless to say I wasn't a big fan of the green mash either. But I had to play that off too! I even made green milk for Josiah and it tasted funny. Definitely do believe that the way your food looks makes a difference in how it tastes. Unless you are my husband, but he's not hard to please he's just thankful I actually cooked! :) Tomorrow chicken and rice is on the menu! Have a great night!
Blessings! :)
