Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays are the days that Baby Dear is whisked off to daycare bright and early in the morning. These are also the days where I can run errands, get most of my freelance work done and enjoy a cuppa ‘Joe with my feet up until 3 in the afternoon. Tuesdays and Thursdays, we take it easy and have fun by going to the library for story time, watching a lot of Disney Jr., and just playing and doing mundane things around the house! Of course, no two days of mine are ever alike. Here is just a glimpse of what my Monday looked like this week: Wow! Just typing that out makes me want to take a nap. But it’s Wednesday today – Baby’s day out and Mommy’s day to attend her weekly cooking class. It’ll probably be mid-afternoon by the time I’m home and not much time left to prep a big dinner before I have to leave to pick up my tiny tot. Days like these are perfect for a quick one-pot meal that’s got a little of everything in it. This Corn Fried Rice with Shrimp is what’s for our dinner tonight. This is a very easy breezy recipe that hardly takes anytime at all and can be put together in minutes – perfect when you have tons of leftover rice. I can’t even remember how many times I’ve made this recipe at the end of a long tiring day. And it never fails to please me! So tell me, what do you feed your family on a busy day? Serve this Shrimp Fried Rice with some Chilli Potatoes, Gobi Manchurian, or Chilli Chicken for a scrumptious Hakka-style meal!
