Uncrustables?

Emma always wants these and instead of paying $3 for a box of 4, I decided to make my own!

I used a cup to make the circles- used jelly, and pb- then put them in baggies, and froze them. Emma had them for lunch today and said it was so good. It was super easy, and it really was nice not have to make a sandwich this morning. Talk about a time saver!

Instead of wasting all the crusts, I baked them in my oven then cut them up, and canned them. Sometime soon I am sure it will come in handy when a recipe calls for bread crumbs.

Chicken Noodle Soup

I made the BEST chicken noodle soup ever!! (it was my second soup I have ever made too!)

I used chicken stock, bouillon cubes, carrots, celery, onion, bok choy <- so good!, noodles, parsley, garlic.

I first cooked the vegetables, and then added the noodles. I used my FAVORITE Essanhuas Noodles.

The soup turned out great, and I even canned two of them and froze them :)

Chicken and Biscuits Recipe

Here is what you need (what I used)

SUPER EASY, FAST RECIPE!
2 cans of cream of chicken
1/2 cup of sour cream
1/3 cup of buttermilk (or milk) 
desired amount of mixed vegetables (sometimes I just use peas)
a can, or two, depending on you- Chicken breast
Can of biscuits
bag of mild cheddar cheese
Salt
Pepper

Mix soup, milk, sourcream, and vegetables together, then pour in a pan.

Cover the mixture with the bag of cheese

On the top, place the biscuits

cook in the oven at temperature biscuits call for- take out when biscuits are nice and light brown. :)

They are delicious!

Cooking Day

I try to get my cooking out of the way for the week on my day off.

Yesterday I did ALOT of cooking.

First, I went through my vegetables and cut up the ones I haven't used. I then put them in baggies, and froze them.

I then made soup, chicken and biscuits, and a loaf of bread. I will post those in their own entries with the recipes :)

Afterschool snack

Emma is always eating like crazy when she gets home from school.... She always ends up eating the food that is supposed to be for her packed lunches.

so when we went to the grocery store the other day she was able to talk me into these:

She loves soft pretzels. We bought a box of 24, so they should last her a week lol

They are mini ones, perfect size for my little Rose :)

Buckeyes :)

My Papa Ron and brother made buckeyes!

My grandpa is famous for them:) They are the best!

Homecoming

On Friday, it was highschool homecoming!

Emma showed her school spirit :)

She's a proud little bulldog!

pie

I made a pie today :)

Unfortunately I only have this picture... I forgot to take more !

It was a banana, chocolate pudding pie, with peanut butter crumbles, and whip cream!

It was delish- I brought it over to my moms and we all had dessert together :)

Emma got her first Report Card!

She got all +'s , and got great comments!

I am so proud of her!

Friday Night

Friday evening me and Emma had dinner- The usual pizza night :)

Afterward, we played Wii... and then she  went to spend the night at grandma's.

I went to the city, and went to The Beast (kansas city's most SCARY haunted house!)

Then I went and got some Hookah! We went to Jaskki's.
