Friday Free for All- Things You Probably Don’t Care About

• When I got home last night, I could smell a delicious fried oniony smell as I walked up the driveway. I thought to myself how I wished it was our dinner but that it surely wasn’t since Hub hates onions. To my surprise, it was our dinner though. Hub fried pierogies and made mashed potatoes and broccoli. It was good; he is a good husband.
• I brought the leftovers for lunch today, and I can barely stop myself from eating lunch RIGHT NOW!
• We are doing something completely impractical with our tax refund—buying the kids a swing set. We could totally pay down bills and just take them to the park. But we really want them to have it. It will last for years, right?
• We are planning a trip to the indoor water park at the end of the month too. I’m excited; I really need a vacation.
• Hub knows someone who will have beagle puppies in a few weeks. Hub and the kids want a puppy—me, not so much. But, I did have a beagle once and loved her. So……maybe. We’ll see.
• Hub has all 3 kids out for a walk right now; it’s a gorgeous day. I wish I was home.
• I can’t remember being this glad it was Friday in a really long time.

It's beautiful here, too. I turned the heat off and opened all the windows for awhile. And realized how dirty the windowsills are. Oops.
Probably won't take a walk, though, as everyone is still sniffly and sick, including me. Bah.

I don't understand people who don't like onions. Everything is so blah without them!

Let me know if you're going to the Fallsview waterpark (Canadian side). One of my clients just gave me a code to get a discount on passes. I don't know how much it's worth, but something is better than nothing, right?

I just have to say that fried pasta stuffed with mashed potatoes with mashed potatoes on the side is AWESOME!

What a lovely gesture on the part of your hubby. Dinner made for you is always 100 times better than if you'd made the very same thing yourself.

I think the swing set is a fabulous idea. It will buy you HOURS of sanity in the future. Totally worth it.

Enjoy the lovely day and I hope you enjoy a lovely weekend as well.

Speaking of pierogies, could you please repost your recipe for pierogi casserole? I can't find it; it was probably on your old blog. Thank you!
