As Slow As We Can...

We went to wash the car this morning and went by Carly's school, which is closed for the day. We came back home and are happy to be here. It's a nice down day to recover from the past week and prepare for the next several weeks of travel and overall (fun!) craziness. =)


We're spending a somewhat quiet day at home...I say somewhat because when is it EVER quiet with two active funny girls? We did get to spend some time running around outside before our snack. Now Bree is resting and Carly is singing along to the Princess and the Frog. It's such a great movie!

I'm cooking a few meals for this week and stumbled upon a fabulous healthy barbecue sauce recipe. It's just tomato paste, chili powder, lemon juice, olive oil, pureed onion and garlic, a little honey and some dijon. It's been simmering for an hour or so...and the short ribs are in the crock pot...yummy! We've already done the meatballs and the chicken is almost done. I discovered recently that we all prefer roasted chicken when it's cold. So yay for that!

If the BBQ sauce turns out well, please send the recipe along!
