It’s that time of year again! The time of year that makes me sprout dozens of new grey hairs 😆.
It’s… Birthday time!
Now don’t get me wrong, I love birthdays! However, having 2 birthdays, 4 days apart right before the craziness that is Christmas is… a LOT of work!
Her invitations turned out wonderfully! She has some beautiful ideas for favours, treats, and decor! It’s going to be fabulous!
This week on @HWYWHoney Ep:92 Have You Tooted? We welcome very special guests Stef and Palmer to the show! We chat American midterm elections, moving out together and songs of the week! Check it out HERE!
Last week Dad was craving Chinese food! However, our favourite Chinese food place (that is 45 minutes away BTW) was closed for vacation #SmallTownProblems So, I tried to indulge him with a new recipe that includes all his favourite Asian flavours, Egg Roll in a bowl! We all enjoyed this! It definitely hit the spot and tasted better than take-out! This is loaded with Asian flavour and is easy weeknight dinner. You can have this healthy and low-carb dinner ready in under 30 minutes!
2 tablespoons oil divided
1 lb. ground turkey
1 sweet onion, finely diced
1 bell pepper, diced
½ teaspoon ginger, minced
3 cloves garlic, pressed
¼ cup chicken broth
1 bag coleslaw
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
2 green onions, thinly sliced
In a large saute pan over medium heat drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil and add ground turkey. Cook for 5-6 minutes, or until turkey is almost cooked through.
Push turkey to the side of the pan and add onion and other tablespoon of oil. Saute for 3-4 minutes.
Add peppers, garlic, and ginger and saute for 2 minutes. Stir the vegetables and turkey together.
Pour chicken broth in the pan and scrape the bottom of it to deglaze it.
Add coleslaw, soy sauce, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Stir well and cover with a lid. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 12-15 minutes, or until cabbage is to your desired tenderness.
Just before serving add sesame oil and top with green onions and sesame seeds.
So we are 2 1/2 months into our dance life and I am happy to say, not once have I had to convince the Girls to go to class. To hurry up and get ready… Yes but they are always excited for dance class! HBear especially! I don’t know how it happened but all of a sudden she looks like a cast member from Fame 🤩😂.
This week we celebrated the bravery of all the men and women that have served our country and continue to do so in these scary times. The Girls chose their individual outfits 😆 for their school’s Remembrance Day Service. HBear had a speaking part in the poem, In Flanders Field and also sang with the Glee Club 💛.
On Thursday one of my Besty’s husband planned a surprise birthday party for her at a local wine bar! She was just getting over a terrible flu, was catching a plane to Las Vegas the next day, and preparing for her Las Vegas marathon on the weekend! It was out of my comfort zone because I didn’t know very many people but I had a fabulous time!
On Saturday we were lucky enough to celebrate my Mother and Father-in-law’s 49th anniversary! We celebrated with a lovely dinner at Theos Restaurant! Great food, great company, and a great way to celebrate 49 years of love ❤️.
