What's Cooking

Homemade Salsa
We use the tomatoes from our garden and this package of salsa mix (found in the produce section). We chop up the tomatoes real small and stir in the package of salsa mix. We then grab a bag of tortilla chips and enjoy! It is so simple, so good, and is often a meal at our house.

Spaghetti Casserole
8 oz sour cream, 8 oz cream cheese, 1 package angel hair pasta. Cook pasta and drain. Stir in sour cream and cream cheese until mixed well.
Brown 1/2 pound pork sausage and 1/2 pound ground beef, with onion and Italian spices. Add 1 can Rotel and 1 can Italian diced tomatoes (and a fresh tomato from your garden if you have one!) and mix with meat. Add garlic and salt and pepper to taste.
In a large casserole dish, layer meat on bottom, grated cheddar cheese and then spaghetti. Alternate each. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes.

I tried this recipe for the first time this week and was not sure how it would turn out. It turned out to be incredible and we will definitely have it again.

TennTucky Blackberry Cobbler
1 cup sugar, 1 cup milk, 1 cup flour - whisk these 3 until blended. Add 1 stick melted butter to batter and whisk until blended. Pour batter into a lightly greased baking dish; sprinkle 2 cups blackberries evenly on top. Sprinkle 1/4 cup sugar evenly on top also. Bake at 350 for 1 hour or until golden brown.

I have made this twice in the past week with fresh blackberries. Yummy stuff!

All Aboard The Birthday Polar Express

  Can you believe Henry Patton will be 4 years old tomorrow?! Neither can we. We celebrated his birthday last weekend with his first all boy party, polar express style. I had so much fun preparing for it, as you can probably tell! My mother who is never at a loss for words said it looked like Polar Express threw up in my house. She was SO right and we loved it! We had a breakfast pajama party with 7 three and four year old boys. It was such a fun time.   I had his pajamas monogrammed with a train and his name. He loved them and I liked how they sort of looked like the ones on the movie. Henry loved all the bells I had everywhere. There is no doubt we believe at this house. We had the jingle loud and proud!   I had his invitation made from a shop on Etsy and I was very pleased with them. One of his little friends came to the door ready for me to punch his ticket. It was so cute. I ran to get a hole punch and punched it for him. Every good p...

Meet Shaun

This is my single co-worker and church friend, Shaun. He and I have so much fun bantering back and forth. He takes what I dish out and scoops it right back up and hands it back to me. He is a keeper for that and many other reasons, which I will share on this post. He was kind enough to allow me to highlight him on Kelly’s Korner http://www.kellyskornerblog.com/ for her singles link up. His last words to me about this were, “ This better not be an embarrassment! ” I trust I will do my best to make it not be, but I make no promises! The first thing you need to know about Shaun is that he loves Jesus and the Boston Red Sox . He asked Jesus into his heart at age 8 and is still seeking and serving him today at age 26. Shaun graduated from Arkansas State University with a degree in digital media and design. When he is not busy creating masterpieces for our customers he is hiking, watching the Red Sox , playing basketball, horsing around at the lake or beach, and watching movies. He is fu...
