Did you say ICE????

So while making cookies Emily calls me and says they are coming over to help make cookies,  so they get here and Sam is as cute as ever..  Hi,  she says..  lol..  I don't know how to describe the love that I have for that child!!   She is so much fun and so funny..  she thought my lemons and oranges were balls,  so we had a nice long game of catch..  :)  the kid has a great arm..   then she played with Rudolph and the other stuffed animals that I have from the tv show..   the little one loves cookies..   she had quite a few,  then she watched Grinch,  the live version,  she loves that movie..  and Rebekah and I would tell her to say cheese and she would scrunch up her face and say CHEESE!!!  lol..  so so so cute!!   Then I stopped making cookies and made dinner..  Fettuchini Alfredo..  it was yummy and so easy and good for you..


Fettuchini Alfredo

1 lb box fettuchini
2 1/2 c vegetable broth
8 tsp flour
8 oz low fat or non fat cream cheese, cubed
parmesan cheese
pepper
nutmeg

Cook fettuchini according to pkg directions.  
In a large sauce pan heat vegetable broth and whisk in the flour..  bring to a simmer and add the cream cheese and continue whisking until melted, sprinkle in 2 to 4 Tbsp shredded parmesan cheese, pepper and nutmeg..   add cooked fettuchini and stir to coat well with the sauce..  sprinkle more parmesan cheese on the top and serve with crusty Italian bread and a salad.. 

Samantha LOVED this..  she was sucking it down..  I didn't know if she would really like it that much,  but she did.. Will have to keep the ingredients on hand for when she comes over..  will have to think of other things she might like too.. 
While we were making cookies and dodging fruit being thrown at us it seems that we weren't paying attention to the weather that closely and it started sleeting and stuff..  great..   Em and Sam made it over to her sister's house safely and I am thanking God for that right here and now!!!   I need to get a supply of diapers, wipes and Samantha clothes to keep here for them in case something like this comes up again..  
Hope everyone is safe and if you are out and about that you arrive safely where you are going..
