It's 6:32 in the morning here. I'm up, dressed, and having my coffee while trying to fully wake up and get it in high gear before my two little tornadoes arrive. They should be here within the hour.
I thought I'd better pop in now with a quick post - otherwise I won't be able to get a post up until very late this evening. I'm loving doing NaBloPoMo, but posting every single day for a month can be exhausting at times.
I got everything crossed off my list yesterday except for one thing - and that one thing is a whole post's worth that I'll share with you later this week.
On the way home, I treated myself to a delicious dinner from a new little takeout hibachi place near my house.
They serve such generous portions! It's plenty of food for me for at least three meals, and their food is so good - and only $10. Can't beat that!
I guess I'd better run now. I still need to get the girls' Special Sharing Plate ready before they get here. You know the drill - It's tornado time until somewhere between 5-6 pm. I may not have time to make my rounds to visit you today, but I'll do my best. Either way, I'll catch up with you soon.
Have a great day! :)
That looks tasty and what a price! Enjoy the day.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lynn. It was very good, and I did have a good day with the girls. Of course, I'm completely worn out now!
DeleteThat looks so good! I wish it was near me. :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
Thanks Mari. The lighting was horrible, it looked even better in person, and it was so good. I wish you had one too!
DeleteI love takeout and not cooking!!
ReplyDeleteMe too Karen! It's just hard to find places where the food is worth it. This one definitely fits the bill.
DeleteI missed your earlier post about the sharing plate--now I want one for my kids!
ReplyDeleteYou should definitely grab one. My girls think it's the best thing ever, lol!
DeleteWe have a hibachi place close to us too and they have good food! Have fun with your tornado drill.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm glad you have a good one too. I've been wearing this place out since they opened, lol!
DeleteThat looks very tasty!
ReplyDeleteIt was very good Angie! :)
DeleteI'm glad you have taken the time to post daily. I always enjoy your posts! Hope you continue to keep up with us after this! I always post every day unless I don't have internet. That used to happen, but since I've moved, the service is much better.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ma. I plan to keep blogging, but probably not daily, especially once the next two grandbabies come along. I'll be back to being a full-time caregiver, probably six days a week this round!
Deletethe above was posted by mostly known as ma. I didn't realize it was going to show as anonymous.
ReplyDeleteI caught that Ma. :)
DeleteThat hearty meal last night will give you the energy you need today!
ReplyDeleteIt did not, lol! Nothing can give me enough energy for an 11 hour day with a two and three year old. I'm wiped out!
DeleteSuch a delicious meal for such a bargain price, Martha! Have a great time with your precious tornadoes, too. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteThanks Martha. I can't get over the portion for the price, and it's all high quality food besides, can't beat it!
DeleteYUM...that really looks delicious and a great price. I hope you have a great day with your grands.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lori. I'm amazed with the food at this place - so delicious and so cheap. I'll be going on my third dinner from that single portion this evening. It's crazy!
DeleteHave a nice rest of your day! -Christine cmlk79.blogspot .com
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine. I hope you had a great day too!
DeleteWe'll certainly understand if you can't get around to visit; it's kind of you to even do so! Many bloggers doing daily posts just do a daily thought or quote, in case that helps you out on the days you don't have the energy to write a lot. Have fun with the Tornado Twosome!
ReplyDeleteThanks Margaret. I was definitely too exhausted to make my rounds last night. I was so tired I couldn't even see straight! I do have a couple of posts like that saved in my drafts just in case, but I prefer an actual post whenever possible. I'll be by to visit this afternoon. :)
DeleteEnjoy your day with the little sweeties!
ReplyDeleteThanks Marie. We had a very nice day. :)
DeleteDear friend, what a hearty meal, and such a great price. This could even be split into two meals if we wanted to.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this ❤️ 🙏
Hi Linda! I'll actually be going on meal #3 today from that single portion, and it's so good!
DeleteDinner looks delicious. I love places that give generous portions. No cooking for a day or two. Enjoy your tornado time. Happy T Day
ReplyDeleteThanks CJ. I'm still amazed at the portion size, especially at such great price. I couldn't cook the same meal as cheap. Make that three days without having to cook, still have enough for tonight! :)
DeleteI’m back home from babysitting. We colored, read books, played Encanto Bingo, and built a house for her Rudolph out of magnatiles. Your dinner looks yummy! We met my brother in law and his wife at a hibachi place two weeks ago. It was really good, but too much food!
ReplyDeleteThanks Bijoux. I remember you mentioning going to the hibachi place. I love hibachi but going to those restaurants is usually ridiculously expensive. I'll stick with my new little favorite take out place, it's every bit as good. I'm glad you had a nice time yesterday. I'm a little jealous that you get that one on one time. With two, it's almost impossible to have any structed time or quiet time. We sit down to read and one is flying down the hall in the other direction. We take out the building blocks and one wants to build, the other takes joy in sending it crashing down. One wants to play with the Little People Barbie house, the other is stuffing all the little people in the trunk of the Bluey car and driving away. Crazy days, lol!
DeleteYour only job for the day is to love on the grands!
ReplyDeleteAnd that is the one and only thing I accomplished, lol!
DeleteWow, that's a great portion. Go you!
ReplyDeleteThat's how I felt about it too! :)
DeleteThat's good though. Nice amount.
DeleteHope all goes well with the two little tornadoes ... have fun.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Thanks Jan! :)
DeletePosting every day is definitely a challenge, but you're doing great. Have fun with your little tornados. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! It's a lot after going years without blogging at all and then just diving in to such a challenge.
DeleteIt can be a lot to post daily.
ReplyDeleteI do hope you had a great day with your two little tornadoes and always remember, visiting or commenting on my blog is always optional, friends don't put expectations on friends, knowing how life can get in the way.
Thanks so much. I've always been a stickler about visiting others when I'm blogging, especially those who have left a comment on mine. Life gets busy, but I will take the time to catch up :)
DeleteHave fun with your little girls!
ReplyDeleteThanks Connie. :)
DeleteThat does look delicious!
ReplyDeleteIt was really good. I'm going to be wearing this place out!
DeleteYour meal looks delicious! And a great price, too! Hope you had a fun day with your granddaughters. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Bless. I thoroughly enjoyed it - and I still have enough leftover for tonight!
DeleteWe do not have a good chinese (or asian) restaurant near us anymore. Your meal looks delicious!! I hope you had a great day with the grands!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lisa. It was a great day, but a very long one as well. This hibachi place beats any Chinese food I've ever had, but we do have a good Chinese place close by too.
DeleteIn previous years I've always stayed at least a day ahead for this and for the A-Z, but since I dove into this at the last second, I wasn't prepared at all, and still can't seem to make time to get even a teeny bit ahead of the game!
ReplyDeleteYou're hitting NabloPoMo out of the park. And you totally deserved that take out treat!
ReplyDeleteThank you San! :)
