Cozy Friday Night & Happy Friday!

“Happy Friday! What’s for dinner?”

This was the text I received from my sister a few hours ago, and it’s not unlike the texts I receive every night from her. She lives almost five hours away so we don’t get to see each other as often as we’d like, but we try to always make a point to ask each other what the other is cooking for dinner, and I love it every time (no matter what we’re cooking that night).

She and her husband have six kids, so she’s my go-to for parenting questions and dinner ideas. She’s been through and seen it all, and I’m so grateful for the quick test exchanges we have regarding what we’re cooking, drinking, doing, etc.

Tonight I made Pad Thai for the first time! I was surprised by how quick and easy it was to make. eat Pad Thai from a local place in town once a week, so I thought I would try my hand at making it. It wasn’t Fuji Express good, but it was first-time-ever-making-it-good. You know what I’m talking about. Right?

Right now PJ and the kids are outside running around and climbing trees and I just cleaned the kitchen and am now listening to jazz music while sipping on a glass of white. After a horrible, horrible day yesterday (having to do with a contractor we hired to work on the farm), it feels good to relax tonight. We were going, going, going, all day today, and I don’t think TGIF has ever been more appropriate in the history of phrases than it is tonight.

Happy Friday night, friends!!! I hope it’s a relaxing one. xoxo
