Happy Halloween!

Sitting here passing out candy with my trusty sidekick

Whilst my adorable munchkins troll for candy

I sure hope we get more action soon because as of 7:05 we had one person and this is my bucket

Everyone gets two right now and it may be handfuls by the end of the night! I don't need extras laying around that is for sure! We usually have tons so I don't understand it!? Maybe because it's Monday.  Anyways I was being a good doobie and went running tonight! 1.5 miles.  I have slacked off for far too long and there is no time like the present!

Thanks to my accountability girls for giving me the nudge! Helps that I have a halloween colored running shirt! And I selected a VERY easy dinner for my husband to prepare while I ran! How many Seinfeld fans are there out there??? Question: What was Elaine's favorite thing to order at the little diner they all went to? While you think about that watch this (I love Jerry!):

Oh my word I could listen to that a thousand times, so funny! My brother in law (who is the hugest Seinfeld fan) is also the hugest candy fan! So perfect.

Anyways anyone get the trivia question yet....

It's the BIG Salad!

I don't know about you all but I was always getting the Salad Bar at restaurants as a kid.  I love it.  I think it's the make your own aspect of it all.  All the choices.  Plus they always had chocolate pudding.  How can you go wrong? My absolutely favorite part about working at the hospital on weekends is that I get to do "Big Salad".  I do that junk up right!
I can make a hugnormous salad for 10-12 pts.  And my kids LOVE big salad night.  I believe that they like building there own dinner as well.  I make all the cobb ingredients but add additional!

Big Salad
