I am making a white bean chili, with chicken. It smells of coriander and garlic in here. Shhh, don't say anything, it's for my sister-in-law who broke her leg. Oh yes, the soccer star that she is went in full-kick and snapped one of her twigs. So since she is laid up, I thought I'd nip over there tonight with this small yet clean-eating meal.
The photo above depicts a my little ones dinner...mac and cheese. Tonight I ate an avocado mixed with a tin of thai chili tuna. She doesn't like that! So hence her choice. Hey, I support her choices. She eats a lot of fruit. :)
This week I was surprised by two of my favourite blogging friends, Vanessa & Tara. Both sweet ladies sent me gorgeous packages to open full of surprises. Thank you ladies!!!
Tara is in London this week, the lucky gal. An email today informed me that there are still a couple of spots available for people to join us in Jordan. Why not sign up for this trip of a lifetime? Go check out the website here to read all about it. I mean really, a week in Jordan with some blog friends...what could be sweeter?
I love the saying...Friday's dream on Saturday told, always comes true no matter how old. Have you heard that before? Whenever I had a weird dream on a Friday, my mother would put her finger to her lips and whisper, "Shhh, don't tell me. Then it can't come true." Well last night I had a doozy! But I won't share it. Just know that it was weird. I dream a lot lately. Lots on my mind I suppose.
I'll leave you now. I have some pictures to hang, and I'm going to finish off the chili.
Have a wonderful weekend..I'm happy that tomorrow is Sunday, because Sunday always brings the greatest treasures. ox
You deserve nice surprises! Thanks for the mention about the Jordan trip. Sorry to hear about your SIL. Hope she's soon on the mend! Enjoy your week ahead. xoxox

i had a twinge when i saw the mac and cheese. i am sure the avocado tuna was delicious and i know i would have liked it but i think tonight a little homemade mac and cheese is in order. with the ketchup.

I wish I could go with all of my heart, but the timing just doesn't work. :(
