DIY

Just as I suspected I felt much better today. The productivity of getting out this morning and exercising my credit card with some last minute Christmas gift purchases was surprisingly refreshing, especially since I didn't really spend all that much money for what all I got.

I have a private pleasure on my early morning shopping trips of stopping by the McDonalds for a biscuit and coke. I like sitting in the restaurant eating my biscuit, drinking my coke, and observing my fellow humans. If in close enough proximity to someone I usually eavesdrop on their conversation for no other reason than to entertain myself while I eat...or maybe it's just plain nosiness.

I'm also getting super excited about Lucas arriving this coming Friday for the holidays. YAY!!

Anyway, on a different note I have been trying many different new recipes that I have found on Pinterest. A few weeks ago I decided that I would make up my own personal cookbook of all of our favorites.  Toby is the gauge for whether something will be included in our favorites or not.

So I thought I would start sharing the ones that he gives a thumbs up to and will be included  in our favorites.


THREE CAN SOUP

This was a super easy recipe, but I do want to make note that I substituted the 2 lbs. of ground beef  it called for with a pkg. of Boca crumbles. Cook up a batch of cornbread and your ready to enjoy. Here is a link to the recipe.
I also have been working on a new quilt. The style is called a puff or biscuit quilt. It's turning out to be a little more detailed that what I am used to doing but I am enjoying this new twist on quilting. I will wait and post pics when I am done.

Beunas Noches!!
