Dinner Time

My mom and I decided the week before last that for four days of the week, Saturday through Tuesday, I would make dinner and she would clean up the mess as long as I didn't make a big one.We started this regime last weekend. On Saturday, I made hotdogs with baked beans, and on Sunday, I made tuna pasta with sour cream. My mom instructed me to add peas to the pasta as well, but I couldn't find any peas in the cabinet so I had to make the tuna pasta without peas. Today, we had barley soup with saltine crackers and salad. The instructions on the can of soup says to add one can of water to the soup since the soup is condensed. I'm usually hesitant to add the full can of water because before canned condensed soups always came out watery. I like my soups with a little thickness. In the end I decided to add the full cup of water because I was afraid without it the soup would taste to strong. The soup turned out okay and the thickness was alright.
