I'm So Excited!...In My Boring Sort of Way

But then again, it doesn't take much to make me excited...lol

I just wanted to jump on here quickly while I had a spare minute to let y'all know that the series, "Who Do You Think You Are?" is premiering tonight on TLC cable channel.  The series ended a couple of years ago on NBC but has been picked up by TLC(or as I like to call it, "The weirdoes and train wrecks of humanity channel").

I can't wait for the start time of 9pm Eastern time.
The episode synopsis says, "Kelly Clarkson explores her lineage and uncovers an ancestor deeply rooted in American history in the season premiere."

Oooooo!
Sounds like an ancestor who came to America way back, doesn't it?

If it's far enough ago, I wonder if her ancestor knew my ancestors?   We should so totally get together for tea and a chat about it, don't ya think? lol

I am so glad it's mid July because finally there is something to watch on tv in the evenings besides old movies on the old movie channels that I've seen a bazillion times already.

Last Thursday PROJECT RUNWAY debuts it's Season 12.

And my guilty TLC pleasure of HONEY BOO-BOO(Hey! Don't judge me!) Season 2 premiered last Wednesday.
I think Mama June is awesome sauce......

And then when my heart couldn't take much more excitement SISTER WIVES premiered on Sunday night.
Lord help me!

Though I am getting a bit bored with those sister wives.  Doing a trade show for My Sister Wives Closet in that part of UTAH?  What kind of reception did you expect there?  I bet the tv producers suggested they do that show just so they could get some folks on camera to comment on how much they hate "pligs" and how they are going to burn in hell.
Go do a real trade show in Vegas or LA sister wives if you want to make some $$$.

So today another hour of scrumptious tv viewing is added to my schedule with WDYTYA.


And come August 14, be still my heart!, we get the Season Premier of DUCK DYNASTY!
I cans hardly stand it folks!!

We'll be on the road on the 14th but I'll be sure to get to a tv set in time for that show too if I have to bribe or kill someone.
Hey!
I need my weekly dose of Uncle SI, Phil, Jase, Willie, Godwin and Miss Kay.

And as Miss Kay would say......

"She Gone!"

Sluggy outta here


 

This Week On The Dining Table

 Nothing new or exciting this week in the food category so feel free to just "move along".......

 

Here's what was planned last week--

Sunday--Chicken Fajitas(using some tortillas and pepper strips)
Monday--BLTs, cole slaw
Tuesday--Chicken Sandwiches(using some hamburger rolls), corn, pickles
Wednesday--Lasagna(using some of the mozzarella cheese), Green Salad (Very small piece for me but a really big salad.)
Thursday--Pork Chops, Green Beans(from last Summer's garden), Roasted Potatoes or Mashed
Friday--homemade Pizza(using more of that mozzarella cheese), Green Salad (I'll have leftover something instead and a salad.)
Saturday--Leftovers 

 

Everything served as planned until you get to Thursday-Saturday.  We did an assortment of leftovers instead on Thurs. and Fri. and Sat. Hubs and I used a gift certificate we had for a local restaurant that was expiring in Sept.  Dinner that night cost us $3.01 + tip....woohoo!lol

So Pork Chops and Pizza are moving to this week's menu.

As I posted yesterday,  I spent $42.19 on $81.86 worth of groceries at 2 stores last week.
 

This means I have $98.50 left in my food budget for the next 10 days of meals.

 

Going into this week the leftovers that remain are-some fajitas filling, garlic bread, some shredded mozzarella and a large hunk of that Lasagna I made.  We'll have 1 more meal out of that this week and once I make some room in one of the 2 little freezer compartments, I'll throw whatever is left in there for later.
I also cooked up all that chicken I got the deal on last week so I need to use it this week or freeze it.
 

(I've made bold the leftover items I've used in the menu below.)

 Here's this week's meal plan--
 

Sunday--Potato Crusted Flounder, Roasted Potatoes and Onions, Brussel Sprouts
Monday--Tacos, Corn
Tuesday--Lasagna, Garlic Bread, Salad
Wednesday--Chicken medallions, Spinach, Squash or Zucchini
Thursday--Pork Chops, Green Beans(from last Summer's garden), Mashed taters, Applesauce
Friday--homemade Pizza-maybe barbeque chicken pizza(using more of that mozzarella cheese & cooked chicken), Green Salad
Saturday--Leftovers

On the shopping list for these meals--chicken deli meat, lettuce, tomatoes, fresh squash or zuke and fresh fruit.

 

I'm figuring about $20 for the list above.   If I happen upon a "stockopportunity" I'll have about $78 left in my July budget to take advantage of it.  If not, the leftover budget money will roll over into August's fund.

That's what's appearing on the kitchen table this week here at Chez Sluggy.

 What's getting fixed and served at your house this week?

I Wonder If They Will Relist It?

And it was going cheap.......real cheap!

Oh I Forgot Something.....

When I was showing y'all the detritus Firstborn had bagged up to throw out from his old room last week or so, I forgot to include a picture of this "gem" I dug outta the trash.



And come January, I'll be wearing this lovely item......
