Dinner


I got this idea out of a Rachel Ray magazine but tweaked it for my own liking as always and made it easier. I love her recipes and even though she has some 30 minute ones they also have 30 ingredients and not stuff you keep around alot. So here it is. I call it Bruschetta Open Sandwich. Mostly because it reminds me of the bruschetta tomato bread they use and may still have at Bahama Breeze. I just turn it from appetizer into meal.
I took cheesy bakery bread, kind of like what you get at Subway, added Swiss cheese, steak (just barley sear fajita strips in skillet first), tomatoes, and basil. Cook in oven until cheese is fully melted. UMMM!!!!! YUMMY!!! Hint: I cook the fajita strips in Port Wine and they are still a little under cooked when I put them on the bread b/c you don't want them to get too done in the oven. Also drizzle some olive oil on your bread before adding on toppings.
There are so many variations of this that you can make. I also made it with Feta and Goat cheese. I'm sure it would taste good with chicken and shrimp too. Always keep the tomatoes and basil though.

Daddy Day Care


My husband didn't know I was getting off early I guess. I hope that doesn't mean he always does this. Although I'm sure he does otherwise my son wouldn't smell like he just got out of the bath and have on different clothes when I get home.

New Floor




So I finally got my new floor. Go ahead dogs and go play in the rain, stomp through the mud and tramps through the house. No more steam cleaner for that just a mop! It is much louder but much cleaner and even though I swept up half a Shih Tzu after only one week at least I know I got it all up; nothing hiding out in fibers collecting smells.
