Hi friends!
Well it has just been bum central around here today! Usually Saturday’s are my most productive days, but after a crazy week – I just wanted to kick back and relax today…so I did!
The Iowa vs Iowa State game was a train wreck on both sides – neither teams were playing particularly well, however, the Hawks came out on top, yeehaw!
During half-time Ben whipped us up some Breakfast Skillets for lunch…yummmm!
I special ordered mine to contain:
- Egg whites
- Hashbrowns
- 1 slice of bacon
- Cheddar cheese
He added some tomatoes, green onions and salsa on top. Bliss!
Look, I took some pictures of him cooking away – isn’t he cute? 
He really likes to cook, but gets so stressed out that I won’t like his creations – when in fact, I always do 
This was a terrific take on what would normally be a grease filled, gigantic portioned breakfast that you’d find out in a typical restaurant.
The rest of the day has been filled with more football, and bears. Bear Grylls that is! There’s a Man vs Wild marathon on today and I am just loving catching up with my favorite adventurer – BG is a STUD!
We picked up some delicious Thai food for dinner from a terrific restaurant here in town, Cool Basil – Chicken Pad Thai for her and Pad See Ew for him! We split our meals 50/50, so we each have the best of both worlds.
Oooooo I just love Pad Thai. The chew of rice noodles with that peanutty sauce is so satisfying.
Seeing as how I like the chew of rice noodles in Pad Thai, I ADORE the noodles in Pad See Ew – they’re like 4 times the width of Pad Thai noodles. Delish!
Not sure what the rest of the evening holds – probably more football watching and laying low. Tomorrow I’ve got a baby to visit, grocery shopping to accomplish and whatever else comes my way! Have a great night everyone!
I love when my hubby makes lunch/dinner too, so cute!
Thai food is such heaven, love it! Nothing around this part of Iowa like that!
Have a great productive Sunday!
The baby is so so cute! I wish I had a cute baby to visit!
And pad thai is seriously so so yum!
It’s been way too long since I had pad thai
And I’m totally watching Man Vs. Wild atm too. I forgot to watch it on Wednesday in my dorm, which is weird because that’s one of the few channels we DO get
today was supposed to be a productive day for me too, but i decided it was better to be rested instead! haha.
The hubby sure does know how to whip up a good looking breakfast! so cute of him to cook!!!!
hope you enjoy your evening!
I used to think Bear Grylls was attractive – that accent! – then I saw him drinking his own pee on several different occasions…. not so hot.
Awww chef Ben is adorable!
I had such a similar day. Football over lunch and Thai take out for dinner. Such a great Satuday!
Enjoy the rest of the night hun!
Well done Ben! My husband loves Bear Grylls!! Last Easter there was a Bear Grylls & Long Way Down (Ewan McGregor) marathon on Nat Geo Adventure – nearly sent me crazy. Bear must be totally insane!
Your nephew is gorgeous – love the chubby cheeks!!
I love when my husband cooks too! That looks like an awesome breakfast skillet
How sweet that your hubby cooks for you! Sometimes I wish mine would. But, I do love to cook for him! Boy is spoiled
Did you see the Man v Wild with Will Ferrell? I’ve only seen the show a couple of times but that one was pretty entertaining!
Hey chica,
Your dinner looks fabulous
I love rice noodles too! I always order rice noodles to replace the rice.
Per our tweet convo earlier, we should go back to college to become chefs/nutritionists together… LOL. A girl can dream!
I hope you had a wonderful evening!
Wow, that skillet looks AWESOME! Lucky girl – your hubby’s a secret chef!
And I heart pad thai; I know officially have a craving for it!

Breakfast Skillets sound wonderful and so do the Thai dishes.
