We had a low key week. After travelling to Alabama we wanted to stay around the house. Souwan and I did a major coupon shopping haul this week with all of our extra time. There was yard work, gardening, cleaning, laundry, unpacking, church and grocery shopping. Side note, we had a fun lunch with the pastor, his wife and some other church family at Cracker Barrel. We were able to purchase a lot of items this weekend. Our biggest haul to date. Before coupons we spent $182.57 and after coupons we spent $15.57! I can feel us reaching our goal. We have been saving for a heat pump and a trip to Disney World.   Our garden is doing good. We used some basil and cilantro for my Pho.     Souwan wanted pho this week.

This weekend I was sick and it was raining. Not a very fun weekend. I did get to stay in and cook up a new recipe with the boyfriend. Not all that new. I have made chicken parmesan before, but this time I made it without noodles. Why? Because its healthier. This recipe only has 520 calories and 0 carbs! Well I made some pasta for the boyfriend who can eat anything without gaining any weight. Hate him. haha. Here is the recipe I used. Ingredients: 1 cup mayonnaise 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese 1 tsp Italian seasoning 2 lbs fresh boneless, skinless chicken thigh cutlets 1/4 tsp salt 1/8 tsp ground black pepper Method: 1. Preheat oven to 400°F. 2. In a small bowl combine mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. 3. Season chicken on both sides with salt and pepper and place in a single layer in a 8-inch square baking dish. 4. Generously spread with sauce and bake for 20 minutes, or until done. Serve warm.
