My Maddie Blog

Don't forget to check out Maddie's blog too. I don't keep it up as frequently as I like but I always add pictures in the very least.

Something new around the corner?

I have been kind of bored with my blog lately and not updating it as faithfully as I would like. Therefore I think that I am going to turn a corner and have a purpose with the way I write. I am going to write more about military life and how things work out but more importantly I am going to address a creative side of myself.

I am always looking for ways to invent my creative side. I am a Jack (or Jill) of all trades and master of none. Therefore, I am going to make myself a master. Master in the kitchen.

I am going to explore recipes that I haven't made before and even my old favorites. I'm going to let you know how they turn out. Good or bad. I will probably even have help in the kitchen in the way of a precocious four-year old.

Please send my way recipe links or names that you have always wanted to try and are afraid to try or something you like that is interesting. I want to try them all. I collect cookbooks so I will not have a shortage of ideas but I would like some challenges from you all as well.

Wish me luck!

Saturday Seven

It's still Saturday somewhere in the U.S.
Seven things I did this week.
1. I worked one day this week due to ALL THE SNOW WE GOT


2. Watched the Saints beat the Colts (woohoo)!
3. Did a bit of homework.
4. Scanned all of Dillon and Maddie's art from this school year and Cory's grades into the computer.
5. Drove in the snow. Fun!

6. Went to a friend's house and had good food and good company.

7. Said goodbye to Jeff. He left again for four and a half months. My husband. My best friend. Can't wait until July when just you and I are going to go on a vacation. :)
