Cheesy, Butter Rice with Sprinkles


I've decided you just can't make home made food without butter. I compromised with DH tonight - if he picked up L then I would make dinner. I couldn't find anything in the freezer so I organized the freezer first. I then decided on spaghetti - no noodles. So I decided to make a pinterest special, After getting half way through the recipe, I realized I had no butter. Fine, trip to the store!  I decided to get the other things on our list and could not avoid the pastry isle this time. Having to go to the grocery store after you get home after 10 hours at work plus imminent doom  on the horizon was enough justification I needed to talk myself into a cookie sandwich with green sprinkles. To be fair, I was going to save half for DH.

I have high hopes for this recipe. The sauce looked pretty amazing and L will actually eat rice. Not so much with spaghetti. While I am waiting for the rice to cook and for the rest of the fam to arrive I keep thinking about my friend working through her fertility woes. I really hope she is pregnant this month. Our newest arrivals would have the same due date! Lots of prayers for her tonight too.
