The Leprechaun visits!


The leprechaun came to see me this afternoon! Look at all the fun stuff he brought me! This has been a tradition since I was a little girl. I would wake up every St. Patrick's Day morning and find green stuff the leprechaun left for me. I can remember getting pickles, Sprite, green gum, and all kinds of fun green stuff. Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Larry the Cable Guy


Sean and I, Brandon and Jodi, and Stuart and Joy went to see Larry the Cable Guy Saturday night at the Fox. He was hilarious! We went to Ted's Montana Grill for dinner. They are running a good special right now. For $15, you can get an appetizer, entree, and dessert. The onion rings are OUT OF THIS WORLD! The cookie for dessert is great, too, it's still warm when they bring it to you!

Awaiting Addie's Arrival


Today we had my good friend, Rolanda's, baby shower. We've taught together for 10 years and she's a very dear and sweet friend.

I made a diaper cake as part of her gift and Jodi had some bibs and burp cloths monogrammed. Aren't they precious?

I used a new recipe for the punch and it was delicious! I was looking for something to go with the pink theme.Here's the recipe:

1 gallon cranberry juice

1 can of frozen pink lemonade

1 can of pineapple juice

Put these ingredients in the punch bowl.

Just before the guests arrive add a 2 liter bottle of raspberry ginger ale and ice.

I also made Rolanda's favorite grape salad!

Another easy and yummy one!

I used red and green grapes.

The white stuff is:

3 blocks of cream cheese

24 oz. of sour cream

1 1/2 cups of sugar

You layer grapes, white stuff, brown sugar and pecans. Top with white stuff and sugar and pecan garnish. Always a crowd pleaser.

ABC News: Slow Cooker Recipe: Buffalo Chicken Lasagna

ABC News: Slow Cooker Recipe: Buffalo Chicken Lasagna

Mom told me about this yummy recipe a couple of weeks ago. I never got around to getting it in the crock pot, so I made it this evening in the regular ol' oven. It was very good! Hubby's only complaint was the blue cheese on top, but I thought it gave it that perfect "tang!"
