Tia on vacay .. day 2... Well I just have to tell you, my hubby might not take me to Mexico but he is an AMAZING chef.  Oh man, tonight he made me a Carino's favorite, Chicken Scallopini.  We truly miss our favorite restaurant, Carinos Italian.  It has the best home-cooked, country style Italian food ever.  Their happy hour is to die for.

We don't have a Carino's in NE, I think the one by mom and dad's in CO is the closest so when we get a craving now it is up to us to try and replicate our favorites.  As I was sitting down to dinner with my very expensive glass of box wine, thanks Nena and Poppa, Lou stated, "this is a very fancy meal mom"... I started laughing as I looked over at the stove to see C slaving away cooking our dinner.  But the slaving paid off: dinner was a hit. 

C googled Chicken Scallopini and took a little bit from this recipe and a little bit from that recipe and came up with his own creation.  Holy moly, Mr.C I love this, can I just say, heavy cream, fried chicken, bacon, and oh yeah, butter... need I say  more?  (check out Copykatchat.com/recipe-requests/46747)  Anyways we had a great night.

Lou and Quinnie started playing together. I know crazy, must have been the food.  And they were having a great time until I think Lou may have karate chopped Quinnie's ankle and she couldn't put any pressure on her foot.  I know, I know Mr. I probably would have taken Little One to the doctor but this brings me to parenting tip 102: TELL ME IF IT STILL HURTS IN THE MORNING.  I mean really what can they do now other than charge me $1500 to tell me its just a bruise and she'll be fine.  So if it still hurts and is swollen, and she can't walk then maybe I'll take her to the clinic to get checked out.  Do you know how many pairs of shoes I can buy for $1500... seriously.

Hope you are still enjoying Mexico.... It is almost Thanksgiving!!!!!!!!  hugs and kisses.  Kiki
