ecstatic and creative

day 6 stuck inside, the kids are ecstatic, lots of extra TV time, outside snow playing, sledding, inside game playing, toy playing, all-day pajama wearing ecstatic!  We just finished off our last 2 boxes of cereal, we have one egg left, 2 bananas, 1 red pepper, a lemon and lots of cheese and a freezer full of frozen meat, bags of frozen veggies, a few Eggo waffles and a frozen pizza, we are good for a few more days.  Last night, I got a bit creative with whatever we had in the freezer (frozen bag of hot dog buns, but no hot dogs!) and I made hot dog bun garlic bread. I gotta say they were delicious, easy and obviously really cheap.  I just opened the buns, spread butter, sprinkled with crushed garlic and popped them in the oven for a few minutes at 350 until they were slightly golden brown, they went perfect with bolognese and pasta. 


I have been a bit stir crazy but my kids are homebodies, especially my Carter, they love being at home, playing and enjoying their toys, their rooms, the time with mom, the snow, movies, Kinect games, weird lunches, lots of snacks and reading in bed.  It turns out, that I really REALLY like my kids, 3 cheers for another day at home because our 2 wheel drive beemer is going nowhere!
