Quick, Easy & Cheap

Yeah, so it’s Monday.
The worst day of the week. The beginning of 5 days of work. There must be some mistake, I think to myself, when I hear that piercing ring at the ungodly hour of 6:30 am. The only thing that gets me out of bed is the thought of a nap in the afternoon. I am not a morning person.
And guys, it’s so cold here. I put sweaters on our Chihuahua’s. They hate me, but they won’t hate me for long…because of what’s for dinner! I am totally cheating on dinner tonight, there is no recipe involved. Every bite will be gone and there will be fights for the last little bit. This meal is quick, cheap and very easy. I totally want to insert a joke here…but it would be inappropriate. You’re welcome, Woody.
Here is a quick rundown:
1. Cook a pound of spaghetti
2. Grate some cheddar cheese. Yes, you could just buy some pre-shredded cheddar but, seriously, this is the hardest part of the meal. You will thank me later.
3. Open a can of kidney beans and warm them up
4. Thaw some Skyline Chili

5. Make a plate for each of your loved ones by specifically following these directions:
· First layer: spaghetti
· Second layer: chili
· Third layer: cheese
6. The following condiments should be on the table:
· Hot Sauce
· Finely Diced Onion
· Sour Cream
· Oyster Crackers
· Warm Kidney Beans
I hope you are not disappointed in me. I couldn’t bare it if you were. I promise it is delightful.


As for the bug eyed freaks, well they are still haters, but they are happy haters and they are warm.
Have a happy Tuesday from two howling and warm Chihuahua's.
