Friday Fragments
1. I realized that in two weeks I would be working 4 days a week, as opposed to two days a week last year, and no days of week all summer. I then realized that dinner would be getting a little more difficult, so I did an impromptu freezer meal cooking afternoon. I made chicken pot pie filling, marinated steaks (which I can also add to stir fry dishes, and teriyaki chicken. I feel more prepared to start school. Yay!
2. The incredible Strawberry-Lime Cream Cake that I made for Scarlett's birthday yielded a bit too much fillings, so instead of eating them by the spoonfuls (which I did plenty of), I made it into ice cream. Strawberry-Lime Ice Cream. It's very, very good. I would make the fillings just for the ice cream, but the cake was too good to pass up. It's a vicious circle of summer goodness.
3. I finally made some of the peach ice cream that I posted about last year. Same goodness, different summer flavor. Don't hate. Just come over with a spoon.
4. We are off to see The Fox and the Hound at our church this evening. I saw this in the movie theater when it first came out with my cousin Sam. We sat in the very front row. I had my own box of candy. Dots, I think. We got a box of Shrinky Dinks after the movie and my other cousin Nick lit a pot holder on fire trying to get them out of the oven. It's funny the things I remember from childhood!

Happy Friday Fragments!! I am just so in love with all the lovely dresses! Did you make them?
ReplyDeleteI do most of my freezer meals on Sunday. Every time he smells something different cooking, my husband says "Can we have that tonight."
Have a fabulous weekend!
I need to start making up some meals to freeze. I've not felt like cooking lately with the weather being so hot and all, and I hate being in the kitchen what seems like all day when Hubby's on nights, and I need to make the family lunch, him lunch to take to work, then dinner for the kids and I later that night...
ReplyDeleteThe Fox and The Hound was my favorite movie (until the next Disney movie came out). =)
Mmm, you've got me craving sweets now! The movie sounds fun, too.
ReplyDeleteOur freezer is tiny, but I'm surprised how I manage to get a lot of dinners in there. I think I like your ideas for ice cream!
ReplyDeleteLove it! I'm coming with a spoon in hand...and that movie is one of my favorites..."I'm a hound dog"...
