Ginger!

So i come home today from a mundane day at work and newly inspired by the movie i recently watched "Julie, Julia" I decided to make something new for dinner! Kevin was happy since i have fallen in a rut of making alot of tacos, spaghetti, blt's, and pizza. At Aldi this week i picked up ground ginger remembering one of my recipes called for it and it was the tasty key ingredient in tonights meal! I made Hibachi chicken like they make at the japanese steakhouse! Kevin said it wasnt as good as theirs because he didnt see any ball of fire or fancy spatula work and i didnt have the cool big hat either, but as far as taste it was right on. I even made fried rice with the eggs and everything! it was fun! We ate with candles lit as we like to do every once in a while to spice up dinner at home. Now if only i could get the recipe for the ginger dressing they use on their salad...!
This week i picked a few new meals to try, there will be a black bean and corn soup, a veggie beef chowder, and some type of chicken with noodles bake thing. We will see how that goes!
Kevin has two wraped presents for me under our tree! He has been putting them in odd shaped boxes so Icannot guess what they are. I have been doing most of my shopping online this year wich reminds me i have more than i thought still do get done!
ok well im going to see if i can upload some pics now for some reason it takes 10 years for me to do it on this blog and i dont know why... thus the reason there are no pics on our blog yet!
