I know I can't nor do I want to have a regular theme blog. But I've been in need of what I call cop-out meals lately. You know, like spaghetti: start green beans and pasta water to boil, grab sauce from the freezer and defrost in the microwave. 20 minutes, max. Found a short cut for my friend Chelsea's faboo potato soup, even though I like the fresh veggies more. Frozen cube hashbrowns and frozen chopped carrots, celery, and onion. Do you have a cop out meal you want to share?

cop-out dinners and a photo or 2 or 10

Do crockpot meals count? That's all my kids have been having lately but they love it cause it's not the normal fast food we eat nightly. I just added a cool crockpot link to my blog.
Cop out meal of the day coming. Amy loves wraps (that's what she calls them). They consist of a chicken breast cooked up with some Yoshida's sauce and served in a tortilla with whatever you like. Sometimes, lettuce, sometimes rice, sprouts, cheese, sour cream, whatever. She would eat these every day if possible and it takes no more than 20 minutes.
love your blog- even when it's not theme oriented. I love all the cool museums you guys see. :) Someone really said you should take your kids somewhere fun instead? Sad for that person- so missing out. I wish my kids liked museums more than they do- okay they love children's musuem here and the science museum, but the art museums not so much :( I think all the art museums we visit and art books we have are a bit of overkill for my boys. too bad, maybe when they are adults all of the art knowledge they have surpressed will surface and be appreciated. Sorry we didn't see you when we were in town. We were only there for 2 days- one day funeral in Idaho the other celebrating easter with family. It was too short for all the driving we did.
Your kids are so great to love museums. That is wonderful since they are so young. It will help them so much in the future.
Hmmm... the quick meal we like is fetticini(sp?), cook the noodles while heating up a bottled white sauce, add canned mushrooms, clams, chicken, or shrimp. Serve with parmesan cheese and a green salad.
Cop out meal - Wendy's.
