Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving! I probably won't be posting much this week if at all. I'm sorry I haven't posted a whole lot in the last week. I haven't tried many new recipes in the last week so I am going to have to try something new this week. :)

I hope you all enjoy your families this Thanksgiving! I'm so thankful that God has blessed me with such a wonderful family and friends!

On a side note, Monkey is finally potty trained! He is 4 1/2 years old and he finally got it! No accidents and wakes up dry! I'm praising the Lord on this one because I thought he was never going to give it up! :)

God bless you all!

First I boiled the noodles. Then fried them in the skillet in a bit of oil. This really helped them not stick together. And I'm sure gives it more flavor. I took the noodles out of the pan and put them in a dish until it was time to add them back. I then started stir frying the veggies. Mushrooms, onions first. Then a bag of coleslaw mix (cabbage and carrots), some bean sprouts. I microwaved a small bowlful of broccoli and added that. I also added a can of sliced water chestnuts. I mixed one cup of chicken broth and a tablespoon of cornstarch and added that to the veggies. Then added a tablespoon of reduced sodium soy sauce and a tablespoon or so of oyster f...
