Tonight I made dinner....

And it was a success. I honestly love making dinners and it is a bummer that I don't do it more often. I try to either make dinner or take the family out to dinner (yes, that's right I take them out) at least once a week. I know it is something that I obviously don't have to do by any means, but the fact that I have a job and can totally just pay for them or cook and show them how much I care leaves me feeling so much better. If I don't have time to make dinner I will usually just make dessert, which is completely obvious since that's all I post pictures of.... I'm a little obsessed, ok?! so... For dinner I went with making chicken tenders and loaded potato crisps.... Of course they needed a mutual dip so I made spicy ranch. It was pretty good if I say so myself (big shout out to pinterest.... Honestly it not only makes work days go ten times faster, but also gives me something to do on my days off... HOLLA!!!) Nik helped me with making the ultimate brownies, which consist of two pounds of cookie dough, 24 Oreos and a family size box of fudge brownies. Of course, being the dessert-loving family that we are, we topped them with vanilla ice cream.... Just couldn't resist! While we were also making brownies, Nik was just " so hungry" and I kept catching him stealing my potatoes... But dinner turned out great, I love my family :)
