When I Don't Feel Like Cooking Dinner

October 17, 2015~ Etc.

This post brought to you by Wendy’s. The content and opinions expressed below are that of Life is Beautiful.

I have many days when I don’t feel like cooking dinner. I remember growing up my mom would sometimes say before dinner time, “I don’t feel like cooking dinner.” And I never really thought much about it until I became a mother. Now, my parents live a few miles away from me and when she says, “I don’t feel like cooking dinner.” I say, “I can only imagine! I’ve only been married for 7 years and I feel that way already, how am I going to feel when I’ve been married 40+ years like you and dad?” 
A couple times a month Jay stays at work late and on those days, I usually grab some take-out to eat at home. Going out to eat to a sit down restaurant with 3 kids by myself? No thank you. So to make it a more fancy, sit-down atmosphere, we move our table and the cushions from our swing porch and make a little restaurant of our own! 

He didn’t want any frosty to go to waste when it spilled. Smart boy.


Wendy’s is my favorite fast food restaurant which is why I said yes to this post. 😉 Maybe it’s nostalgia because there is one right by our house and near our High School so during lunch in High School, my friends and I drove to Wendy’s many times. I’d always get their caesar salad, chicken nuggets & the chili from their .99 cent menu. And the chicken nuggets are still .99 cents! They also used to sell bread sticks for like .39 cents, does anyone remember them? I was so sad when they stopped selling them when I was in HS. Wendy’s, you should bring it back! 😉
From September 14 through November 1, Wendy’s® is selling its Halloween Coupon Books. For $1, customers can get five or 10 free Jr. Frosty coupons. Funds from the sales of the coupons books will go to the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption® to support programs such as Wendy’s Wonderful Kids. Wendy’s founder, Dave Thomas was adopted and he founded the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption, which finds permanent, loving homes for more than 130,000 children waiting in North America’s foster care system. Check out Wendy’s adoption page for more information.
The Jr. Frosties are the perfect size and I get the coupon book every year, it’s such a good deal, 5 frosties for $1. I love dipping my fries in the frosty, does anyone else? 😉
