chicken marsala

We had a friend over for supper tonight! As much as I love to cook, sometimes I get myself in a dilemma over what to fix, so after changing my menu 15 times, I finally settled on Chicken Marsala which I hadn't made in a long time! It was so good and I wondered why I hadn't fixed it in about 10 yrs! I'm not sure! Blessings!

steak

Tonight is steak and fried potatoes supper!! YEAH! Sometimes that what we need for a meal! I tried to take a picture of my new favorite over the counter salad dressing, but it didn't come out very well! It's Marzetti's Light Chiptole Ranch, yum! Tangy, but cool! Steaks were delish and potatoes were great! Gordon tilled the garden and planted 2 rows of potatoes today, first time ever in April! Blessings!

work

Today is Saturday and not really my Saturday to work, but I did, so I made a really easy salad! It's called "5 cup Fruit Salad".The recipe calls for 1 cup of sour cream, 1 cup of coconut, 1 cup of mini marshmallows, 1 cup of drained mandarin oranges, 1 cup of drained pineapple, but save 1 tablespoon of juice from the pineapple! Very easy and yummy! So, I took the camera to work and took a few pix of people(Tammy and Jenny), my demo area and the salad! Enjoy and Happy Easter! Blessings!

Good Friday

Tomorrow is Good Friday! What does that mean to you?? Do you go to church or attend a special meal with friends? Tomorrow our church is doing the stations of the cross, which I'm not sure what that truly means as it's not a Catholic church(someone told me the stations of the cross tend to be Catholic?). We will go and then return home for a quiet meal! Blessings!

pancakes

I made oven pancake this morning for us! We love apples in ours, we get a little bit of fruit in our pancake! I forgot to take pictures of the this pretty thing! I used farm eggs(thank you Lori) and so the pancakes were more yellow! Happy Tuesday! Blessings!

MIA

Sorry that I've been MIA lately! It's been really busy at work and that's my story!! I've also taken the lazy way out of cooking lately, just spring fever I think and burn out! Tired of cooking and coming up with ideas, but this is a new week and I'm back on board! This is Holy week for some people and the ending of Lent! We don't do anything special for Lent except to acknowledge it as this time of year! I'm on the walking/ getting fit kick right now! Gordon got my bike out and I took it for a short spin, just a little off on riding it, I think I'm kinda scared of falling on my knees! Plus my helmet is broke and I need to replace it! Here's the question for the week: Do you do anything special for Easter? Do you cook and have friends and family in or do you go somewhere?? Color eggs??? Have a great evening! Blessings!

ham

WE (meaning I)bought a ham on Friday, so I have been making a few ham meals this week,plus I froze some ham for later! Tonight was ham fried a little bit, then I added 4 eggs (that I had whipped)to the ham, make some toast and that's supper tonight! Rachael Ray made a pasta meal on her Tuesday talk show which was pancetta, peas and pasta, so that's an idea to use the rest of the ham for tomorrow's supper! Blessings!
