Well let me go ahead and tell you about dinner tonight! I was asked to be a guest blogger on my bestie's blog! Mishie told me about it so long ago, I had plenty of time to do a blog because I've been feeling like cooking lately for my babies all five of them lol yes my mom included! Wink wink lol but really... I've just been busy. I pulled my blog up tonight and wow how I've abandoned my own... It's been since 2014 that I've last graced the pages of my own blog. I'm cleaning all the cobwebs and refreshing and revamping my own. There is this one, then there is 63 Shades of Gr33n. The latter is a sub blog dedicated to my gardening and plants and flowers.

It's so obvious how much I've got going but I got zucchini, lettuce, peppers, and tomatoes in pots. I know it's so late but the rain we get every afternoon will help everything to grow. We have had an awesome peachy year >See what I did there! < Haha the peaches were simply delicious but so disappointing when the birds and the bugs got to the last harvest. I was so looking forward to sharing with everyone that asked. I am excited to get everything in the back in the ground. Everything grows so fast and beautifully and the aromas and scents you get early in the morning are so very rewarding. Of course the harvest is the best- juicy green tomatoes, sweet crisp lettuce, yellow squash just everything! A tomato sandwich with garden fresh red leaf lettuce with some Duke's umhmmmm.... With a little salt and some pepper. Oh. Yes. My stomach just grumbled hmmm...

I didn't eat dinner.

I ate a couple of French fries... I did eat breakfast around 4:00 lol which may I add they (the kids) did an awesome job of preparing a late breakfast! I started off the liver mush in the pan, set out the eggs, the diced potatoes and onions I got from the store. I left the iPad open to a recipe for waffles. They made purple velvet waffles! Science lab right! Ha! Chase and Shekaya both have blue all over their hands even now close to 2am. But everything was delicious! And I smashed!

But now...yeeeaahhhh...I'm hungry again.

Y'all we had chili cheese fries for dinner! All my favorites- my amazing chili, French fries, AND cheese??? It goes down!

Chili cheese fries

Alice in Wonderland chili
1 jar Ragu cheese sauce
1 largest bag of tater tots (we wanted to use them but the largest bag was $6.99! For some potatoes!! I need to learn to make them for that price!! Haha!!
Ketchup


Alice in Wonderland chili

1 lb. ground turkey
1 yellow or Vidalia onion, diced or chopped
2 cans your favorite hot dog chili (I use whatever is on sale)
Ketchup
Salt
Pepper
2 heaping tablespoons of sugar

Brown your meat. Add onions.  Season with salt and pepper, basil, and seasoning salt. After completely browned, add chili, a generous nasty squirt of ketchup, and sugar.

I fry French fries in the big stock pot using either vegetable oil or olive oil.

Throw. You some fries on the plate, then add some chili and some cheese sauce and ketchup if that's your thing...and get ready to see French fries disappear!

Tonight, I realized long after everyone was in bed, that nobody even mentioned anything about drink! I bought two jugs of Minute Maid, which was still in the freezer where I left it! Shame, shame it is! Lol but that shows just how yummy our chili cheese fries really were!!!

God is love. And God loves YOUUUUU!
1 John 4:7-8

Beloved, let us love one another, because love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
