- From way back in the archives, two cameras ago and right after we got married, I made Cheez-It Mac and Cheese with butter-roasted chicken thighs and OMG it's exactly as good as it sounds. It needs some SERIOUS photo updates but I wanted to share it anyway because we're running out of chilly weekends and this is just the BEST weekend food.
- Speaking of photo updates, though, I redid the pictures this week for another best-of recipe on this blog, Hibachi Shrimp. It's a super easy, light, healthy version of the takeout favorite, so I highly recommend you add it to your dinner plan for next week. It takes literally ten minutes, and that includes preheating a skillet.
- We made an offer on a house this week! And then there was some back and forth and some insults thrown (not by us) and some hurt feelings and some lying (not by us). And then we didn't get it. It was v dramatic.
- The rich-people-paying-to-get-their-kids-into-college drama is so ridiculous. First, I don't actually think it's all that surprising. Money buys things, so why not buy an entryway to college rather than take the time and effort necessary to teach your kids to care about academia, OR hard work, OR that college isn't necessarily the path for everyone, OR that there are options besides the so-called best schools? It's a wild story, for sure, but it's just exactly what we know about humans right out there in the open.
- This weekend! We are having a spring family birthday celebration for a few of us that have birthdays this time of year, Jay's golfing, and I have my eye on some quiet alone time although with our luck we'll get a ton of house showings and be in and out all weekend but not actually sell the house. I'm fine. (have a great weekend!)
