Yesterday evening, as a treat to the kids, we thought we'd stop in at a Spokane icon, the Milk Bottle on Garland. They are famous for their milkshakes, so we thought we'd have a little treat and be on our way to make the chicken chimichangas I had planned for the evening.
Upon entering this fabulous establishment, which really does have a giant milk bottle attached to the building, we were assailed with the sights and smells of fried goodness. A batch of homemade shoe-string fries was just coming out of the fryer, burgers were on the grill...oh my.
We ordered our shakes and went outside to sit and wait for them, continuing to fight against the amazing smells coming from the kitchen. We lost this fight. After our milkshakes were delivered, we also ordered dinner... sandwiches and burgers and fries. It was AMAZING. And a little more special to everyone because we haven't been eating out.
So here's the plan for the rest of the week:
Tuesday: Chicken chimichangas, with Mexican rice
Wednesday: Salmon patties with baked potatoes
Thursday: Grilled chicken breasts with bowtie pasta and pesto sauce
Friday: Discipleship group potluck
Saturday: Leftover day! If we run out, I'll probably make something light, like nachos.
Sunday: Pork roast and potatoes, roasted yellow squash
It's so much easier when I make a plan and stick to it, but it's also good to be spontaneous and enjoy life now and then, too!
