Also, Im thinking that I will only post a few family updates, memories, stories AND.....drum roll please....RECIPES!!! Y'all know I love being in my kitchen! :)
If you haven't heard my poor baby had bilateral tubes put in his ears, his adenoids taken out, and a turbinate reduction (a little post nasal procedure) about a week and a half ago. They told us he would have a little drainage and a low grade fever 7-10 days after surgery. Well, what does my kiddo come down with? Nothing less than MAJOR nose congestion and a HIGH fever! AND, he eventually came down with pneumonia! :( But, no worries, no panicking, he was quickly at the pediatrician's office (who totally rocks by the way!), got antibiotics, and is back to acting his normal crazy self (so I am told he is on a mini vaca at Gram and Pops)!
Harp is gone because Chris and I got sick over the weekend. GUESS WHAT? We have the stinkin flu! I know, I couldn't believe it either! We have been in bed since Sunday. Actually Christopher told me on Sunday that he felt like one foot was in the grave. And, yesterday he told me the other foot was creepin' in too! HA! MEN! They can't handle anything! :)
Everyone knows that you are suppose to eat homemade soup when your sick...especially when you have the FLU! There are two problems with that....
1.) Homemade soup while not complicated, was NOT something I was tackling while so sick!
2.) Most importantly, Christopher doesn't like soup!
So, I decided to make my "Beef ~N~ Noodles" its the next best thing to homemade soup and oh-so-easy! I will add, I did have homemade Loaded Potato Soup in the fridge (ill post the recipe soon), but that did NOT sound appealing!
