Robin- I have a chicken spaghetti recipe you might like.

In a nutshell - a rotisserie chicken that has been skinned and deboned and chopped up. Cooked spaghetti. Make a roux (melted butter and flour). Add warm chicken stock. Stir till thick. Add half n half cream to make the sauce. Sautee some mushrooms, onions, celery in butter. Mix all together in a casserole. Top with breadcrumbs and bake.

If u like I can give the exact recipe.



I wonder if Joe would eat this??  I think he is getting sick of chicken though. I need beef recipes.

 

 




 



Similar and my kids all time fave...

1 lb browned ground beef
3/4 lb cooked spaghetti noodles
One yellow onion and 1 big celery stalk diced to your size preference and sauteed in a few tbs. Butter ( I dice mine small to hide from my picky eaters lol)
1 can cream of shroom soup and 1 can milk
1 small bar of sharp cheddar cheese cut in 1/2 inch dice ( I estimate a generous cupful) - maybe 1.5 cups

Mix all in casserole. Top with crushed ritz crackers. Bake.

I have been making this forever without a recipe - so adjust any quantities to your liking.

Yummy.

That sounds heavenly.

I think I should come visit you (or you come visit me), and you could make it for me.

He is coming home now.  I guess I should be finishing getting ready.

My mom makes one similar to this and it is even good without the chicken.

Mark and I walked over to my parents' house.

I used my dad's computer to type the class list for Mark's class--my first official room-mom job.

Now Mark and my mom are playing Candyland or something, and I'm playing on my mom's laptop.

My dad's computer keyboard was giving me fits. It's the split kind that is angled toward me on both sides. The "6" key is in a crazy awkward place to hit with my right index finger. Also the space bar sticks.

I finally tried giving Henry melatonin.

I heart.gif that stuff.

I found the kind that disolves (5mg). Did I really misspell dissolve? That one isn't underlined but it looks wrong.

Anyway, I cut the tablets in 3rds then mix the bit of tablet in with his daily allergy med.

He's been asleep before 10 pm the past 2 nights.

Never happened before.

Lol. It really is easier than it sounds!

Anywho - just after I posted a similar recipe with ground beef and a can of cream of mushroom soup- even easier!

need to find the list of schoolbooks that was mailed to us sometime the past 6 weeks.

berts office is a MESS

seriously, dude was alone for 3 weeks, you would think he could keep it organised.

he used to. but since he stopped working i have been organising it cause he got lazier and lazier about it.

he is going to have a serious wake up call when i go back to work next week and her has to do all the things he used to do around the house again.

but hey, he wanted me to work...

he was up in a total fit yesterday at 4:00 and didn't go back to sleep until 5:30. (and i had to get up with jake at 6am who then missed his bus). yesterday was so unpleasant.

i put ben to bed for the night at 5:15pm.

so, yeah, here's hoping i'm not a miserable beast by tonight's ice cream social at the school. lmao.gif
