Lack of Food Blogs Doesn't Mean I Haven't Been Cooking

...it just means the food I have been cooking I have considered mostly un-bloggable, but I decided to blog it anyhow, just to have a memory of what I made.  Monday night was chicken stir-fry.  It was okay-I made a homemade sweet and sour sauce, but I didn't care much for the sauce itself.

Tuesday I made a grilled chicken-I had placed it in marinade the night before, and then served it with macaroni & cheese and green beans.  It was pretty good.  I used a bottle of Lawry's Herb & Garlic marinade that I found in the kitchen cabinet.

Wednesday night was leftovers-this was planned since as soon as I got home from work, I knew it would be time to immediately leave again to head to church.  I don't think the boys felt too deprived. :)

Last night I made sloppy joes from a recipe, not from the canned stuff.  It had great flavor, but the recipe called for celery.  If I make it again, I will omit them-they had a crunchiness that I didn't care for.  I also made some parmesan roasted potatoes, which were tasty!

Today I made a batch of cookies:  Triple-Threat Rocky Road.  They were yummy, but I made one grave mistake-I didn't cook them long enough, so the inside was still gooey.  I hope to try this recipe again, but not any time soon-it heated up the kitchen way too much for this 100°+ weather.  

So that about does it for my almost unbloggable foods.  Tonight:  Chicken Parmesan-hoping it is blog-worthy!
