The Chicken Parm and the spaghetti sauce I made turned out awesome!!! The sauce only called for half a cup of white wine and it was the Clos Du Dois Pinot Grigio that I used. Of course I had to taste the wine before using it and it really is a very fresh, smooth wine...I used what was needed for the sauce and started drinking the rest... I have to say, it turned out GREAT, and so did I!!! :o) The kids loved the chicken and the sauce and so did my brother and hubby. Those recipes are definite keepers!! I added some extra seasoning to the chicken parm and beat the meat so that it was nice and tender. Friday night was movie night so after dinner and dessert (cheesecake) we sat and watched Christmas with the Kranks with the kiddos ( I fell asleep) But all in all it was a good evening. Saturday was a pretty relaxed day. Did not do too much. Then Saturday night we went to the Trivia night. That was also a lot of fun!! The questions were not near as hard as I figured they would be so it was a lot better than I thought. There were a lot of things I did not know, especially questions about movies and music that were before I was born.. but that was what the older people were for (not that they knew the answers either) All in all it was a great time and we really had fun. ( Did not meet any cops, so hubby did not have to worry :oP ) Afterwards we stopped at a bar called Helen Fitzgerald's and had a drink and went home.
Our older daughter spent the night with a friend, and the other 3 spent the night at my parents and 2 of them were going to go to church with my mom so we picked up the youngest and went to our friends that had our daughter and hubby did some computer work there. We came home and vegged ( I napped) and then later that evening went to dinner with my grandma and spent time with her and played a game of tile rummy. Grandma quit and sat and snuggled with Hannah and watched Jurassic Park with the kiddos. That was pretty much the extent of my weekend.
Not really in the mood to post... will hopefully feel up to it soon...
