Best French Fries!

For our anniversary we didn't have time or money to do anything fancy, but I just had to get away from home! So we packed up the girls and we all drove to Nephi to get some of the best french fries!! haha! Not your typical anniversary date, but it was great to get away.
 Growing up my family used to always stop at Frosty Freeze in Nephi on the way home from camping or family reunions. It was tradition. So when Bill and I were first married we were bored one night and we just started driving (WOW! that sounds like a complete dream now. haha!) When we  had been driving for a bit it was dark and we started wondering where our destination was and so it became Frosty Freeze. Bill had never been and I wanted him to have a taste of our tradition. So we ended up in Nephi and were sad to find out that Frosty Freeze was out of business. 
 Well, we were still hungry and started looking for some food even though we were disappointed, we were hungry.. just a few buildings down we found REED'S Drive-in and we gave it a try. We ordered our burgers and then we ordered a large order of fries, little did we know that an order of fries came with each hamburger... So when we got a couple of boxes and a brown bag of food we were amazed!! and we opened them up.. So many fries!! And of course the best part.. the fry sauce was included! We ate and ate and then had some left overs. But now we are hooked. So long story short,  our Anniversary, I wanted to get away, remembering blessed mistake = happy taste buds, full tummy and a NEW family tradition. And by the way if you ever get to stop in at REED'S you defiantly need to try their Western Burger... I'm just saying.. it's good.
 Here are some more pictures to prove that it really exists and that we really went.

See how much they love their fries?!

Dream Dinners!


Crispy Coconut Chicken with Jasmine Rice

    I have discovered a wonderful little place called Dream Dinners located just east of Maceys in Orem. I signed up at the Freedom Festival to go in and make 1 free freezer meal... and I loved it!
  So what they are is a business that is set up for you to go in and make quick, hassle free freezer meals. You go in and choose some meals to make from their menu while you try some yummy samples. When you have picked out what you like you start putting together your meals. I only made one trial meal while there but one meal took me only 2 minutes to assemble! They do their meals in 3 servings or 6 servings. It is restaurant quality food, so it is even tastier. The catch is that when you go in to make your meals you have to make at least 36 servings of food. So if you make 12  3 serving meals then you're good. It is a little pricey. The meals range from like 10- 33ish dollars/meal and their menu changes every month.
  When I got home and made my meal.. From frozen to on the table.. It took me about 35 minutes and I only dirtied 2 cooking dishes! It was so yummy! And such a fun experience!
 You can also do baby showers or parties there where everyone makes one or more meals then buys it and gives it as a gift to the expecting mother. That is the best idea EVER!! I love it! Dream Dinners is definitely somewhere to go for fast, healthy and delicious food. I just had to share it will you all!
