What's For Dinner?

I really hate HATE writing out a menu--but I like how much time-energy-and money I save when I have one done! So I set out to make 52 weekly menus so I would never have to make another menu again!!! By menu 20 I realized that I was going to repeat foods so I might as well just make 20 and rotate through them--That gives me almost 5 months worth of menus before repeating so between that and holidays I should be set--HOORAY!!

There is a "New Recipe" night once a week to satisfy my need for creativity and to add variety--we, as a family, enjoy trying new or re-invented recipes! I think I might use it as a favorites night as well! It took a while to accomplish but I am so glad it is done!! Here's to easier times ahead!!!

Yummo--pizzelles

This summer I have made these delightful cookies for two separate occasions--I love them and love to make them! I also love inventing different combinations--top gingersnap pizzelle dipped in dark chocolate and filled with a pumpkin chocolate chip filling--bottom lemon pizzelle dipped in white chocolate and lemon sugar filled with lemon filling and lemon sugared blueberries!

OraNgEs

Today I tried something new--I tried canning orange marmalade--used the peels to make spiced candied orange peels--very fun--we will see how it tastes!

Oh GOodNesS!

Been a while since I even looked at this blog--gonna give a heads up though--I am toying with the idea of 365 in a skirt?!?!?  I am still not sure I want too, but then again it is highly appealing to me.  DO you think I could do it? Would you do it? Let me know your thoughts.

I heart canning :]

Just so y'all know!
