We spent today going to Naperville to look at a fancy baby furniture store. It was way outside our budget and I only liked a couple cribs. One was $1,300! I think we will stick to the $300 crib (no longer feeling guilty about that price) and look for two nice antique/vintage dressers. Our local consignment furniture store usually has nice pieces at Ikea prices. Only they're often well made with hard woods and good carpentry.
We came home underwhelmed by the thought of a 3K nursery. I announced the pregnancy on facebook today and I got the appropriate excited responses. I am also cooking dinner. Go me!
This one looks pretty good for a pantry meal
Enchilada Pie:
4 flour tortillas the size of a pie pan (9 inches I think)
1 can black beans
1 can enchilada sauce
1/2 cup frozen corn
1 cup diced tomato. I had about 10 big cherry tomatoes.
1 few diced shrimp, cause I had them
1 cup shredded cheese
1/4 cup sour cream
garlic powder - that's right. Too lazy to microplane a clove of garlic.
Chop up the tomatoes and shrimp. Toss with the corn and rinsed beans. Season with salt and garlic powder but not too much.
Rub a little olive oil on the bottom of the pan. Beginning with a tortilla on the bottom, layer 1/3 of the veggies and sour cream on top and about 1/4 of the sauce and cheese. Repeat with two more tortillas. Place last tortilla on top of veggies and pour over the remaining sauce and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Let cool ten minutes before serving.
