So today I had an unbelievable craving for a fried peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I used to make these all the time as a kid, so with today being Throw back Thursday, I decided to take a trip down memory lane and made me a few today. And they were AMAZING!

Chinese food...... sorta!
Dinner tonight was interesting to say the least. The mess hall made an attempt at Chinese food. They only way to describe it was interesting! Fried rice with no seasoning and Orange chicken with TONS of Orange and nothing else was anything but desirable. I cannot wait to go home.
Military Food
While on my military hiatus, I have been forced to eat at the mess hall! Needless to say that the food has been way below what my standards are. Today I went safe and ordered a cheeseburger and fries thinking that there is no way that you can mess that up. Well you can surely mess that up. The burger was actually soggy. And so were the fries. Which seemed as if they had been soaked in oil before frying. I ended up settling for a VERY simple salad and called it a day. Dinner should be pretty interesting.

Mother's Day dinner
Tonight's dinner was enjoyable because it was simple, and we were able to spend time with the whole family before my Military time away for a few weeks. We grilled strip steaks, pork steaks, brats, squash and zucchini. I had a Mac n cheese that I had previously put together and frozen to cook at a later time. I had also made a Rotel dip at my children's request. My mother made a 7 layer salad and that was it! Simple yet satisfying.
Mother's Day breakfast
This Mother's day started out with being awaken by my children ages 13, 9, 9, 5, serving me breakfast in bed. Now with me having the morning sickness issues I have been having, needless to say I was more than skeptical. But We moms do what we got to do for the sake of our children! So I suffered through the extremely "Cajun" Turkey bacon, scrambled eggs cooked waaaay past perfection topped with cheese, then microwaved because they got cold, and Eggo waffles, also microwaved to extra doneness because they had gotten cold. And I was served a nice tall glass of chocolate milk to wash it all down! Love my Children!

Beef Loin
My husband took me to Maggianos for dinner while we had a chance to slip away from the kids. I ordered the Beef Loin, among other things of course. But let me tell you, those beef loins were so soft they melted like butter in your mouth. I guess I'll be making some real soon because I can't go running to Maggianos every time I get that craving! My husband would have a heart attack!
Tonight's dinner
Tonight I was feeling some southern cooking. So I conjured up the energy to smother some pork chops. Which turned out to be AMAZING! I also made some homemade mashed potatoes, and Turnip greens. All washed down by sweet tea!

A slice of Noodle heaven
Today myself and a few classmates treated ourselves to Corner 17 after our mid terms totally fried our brains today. To say the least that we all had a bad case of writers cramp, so trying to use the chop sticks was pointless!
Breakfast for a Queen
This morning, since I am not plagued by morning sickness today, I chose a huge breakfast. I knew half of it wouldn't be consumed, But all I can say is it was what I wanted! On my date for one this morning I ordered a garden omelette with hollandaise plus bacon, very well done hash browns, a short stack of pancakes, and bananas foster French toast, and multiple refills of ice cold chocolate milk! I felt like a Queen!
