HOT, HoT, hOT

Howdy! We made it down to the cities last weekend to 1) Spend our life savings at the VW dealership and 2) meet with an alternative doc for Mikey.
We got a new CV boot on the car and spent 2 wonderful hours with Dr. Dole. We also spent the day bumming around the cities to use up some gift cards from Christmas. I got new workout pants, 2 pairs of Smartwool socks & a sweater from Gap. Mikey got a free cup of coffee compliments of his dad while Dianne & I shopped.
We also enjoyed a fish fry with the Fudala fam.

This week, we've been doing a bunch of cooking. We also tried these two guys:
Both are delish.
Wednesdays are a good cooking night for us so this week Mikey made Chicken Fried Rice.
The veggies:
The chicken and the eggs with homemade curry paste (2 jalepenos included):
The final product:
It was SpIcY!! Aye aye aye!! I got nice warm fuzzies from the endorphin rush afterward. The cooking process was too complex for me to follow and therefore not included here.

Staying with the spicy theme this week, Mikey made Red Beans & Rice on Thursday.
Rice +
Beans, veggies & sausage:
= The best rice & beans eva!!
The sauce starts with onions, celery, red peppers and then ground bacon is added for flavor. Next, 7 original herbs & spices are added as well as red beans and summer sausage. This is then poured over long grain rice and topped with shredded Brunkow cheddar cheese. YUM!
I had another endorphin rush this evening. Dessert was some dark chocolate chips.

We have a chill weekend ahead. Hopefully it will include some painting before the big snowstorm arrives and definitely before the big Vikings game. Go Vikes!
