Gene Kelly Kind of a Weekend

Saturday, August 22, was Be an Angel Day. I made our traditional alfredo with angel hair pasta. I didn't take pictures.
Nichole turned on Singin' in the Rain while she was doing dishes. I also didn't get a picture.
Sunday, August 23, was Gene Kelly's birthday. I didn't get any pictures of us singing songs from Singin' in the Rain but I did get pictures of my diner plate of a new recipe I tried in the crockpot- jalapeno chicken. Yumm. The garden fresh tomatoes from the couple who minister to us were so good, too. I love garden fresh tomatoes.

Monday, August 24, was National Waffle Day. We made waffles and tried out another new recipe for mozzarella stick waffles. Also yumm.

The kids finished watching Singin' in the Rain while doing dishes.
It was a Gene Kelly kind of a weekend.

Ginger Rogers' Birthday 2020

July 16 was Ginger Rogers' Birthday. The movie Shall We Dance? with Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire has the song, "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off." You know the song. "Potato, potahto. Tomato, tomahto. Let's call the whole thing off." For dinner we had spaghetti with pasta sauce made from tomatoes... or tomahtoes.
Lucky decided to play hot potato... or potahto.

The kids started watching the movie, Shall We Dance? though they never made it to the "Potato, potahto. Tomato, tomahto" song.
Jr. stayed up to watch the movie, Goosebumps, with a ticket and got to drink "ginger" ale as well as eating popcorn. The ginger ale was my dad's suggestion.

Since it was also Personal Chef's Day, earlier in the day the kids made their own personal pizzas on tortillas.
