Perfect weekend.

Yesterday was one of the best days the hubs and I have had in a while. It was great to get to spend some time with him alone, and not with any of our friends around. Thursday, I received my giveaway prize that i won from abbey @ Trading Diamonds for Dog Tags. I was so excited about it and I could not wait to get it in the mail so the hubs and I could have a date night. So I was literally checking the mail every day to see if it had came yet. : ) And it finally came and just in time for the weekend.

 

I won a $20 gift card to Chili's

Needless to say the hubs and I enjoyed this very much. I love their Cajun Chicken pasta and I have been craving it for a while. : ) After we ate chili's we went to the mall to pick up my ring, i had to drop it off about 3 weeks ago to get it cleaned because some kids at work got red food coloring all over it and it would not come out. So we got my ring and we walked around the mall. The hubs told me that one of my Christmas gifts were going to be some boots. I LOVE BOOTS. So he wanted me to pick them out, and of course I knew exactly which ones I wanted. They are from American eagle and are gray boots. TOO CUTE. WE came home and I was supposed to go to a cookie exchange party but the snow stopped me from going. So I still cooked the cookies for the hubs and I. It was my first time cooking these. My sister makes them all the time around Christmas so I got the recipe from her.

They are Corn Flake drops. : ) they are so yummy too. This is how you make them
- Sugar
- Clear Corn Syrup
- Corn Flakes
- Peanut Butter

You bring to boil one cup of sugar, and one cup of corn syrup. making sure you stir a lot!! Once it is boiling add the 12oz of peanut butter and stir until it has all melted. Take off heat and add corn flakes. Keep adding corn flakes until it is to hard to stir. When done take a spoon and grab a spoon full and drop it on your tin foil to cool off.  then your done. :)

Very easy, and they are so yummy. I am going to take some to work Monday to share, and leave some for us to munch on.

To top of our wonderful date last night, I received another gift card from my secret Santa at work for the movie theater down the road. So the hubs and I are going to try and advantage of it tonight. We are planning to do a movie and then a nice dinner here at home. : ) I love weekend that are spent like this. : )

I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend too.
