New Calling

After creating one of my best dinners to date, I am starting to think I went in to the wrong profession.  I could be the next Martha Stewart, Rachel Ray, or Julia Childs.  Here it is.  Rosemary Pork and Summer Vegetables.  Not the classiest name, but man was it good, and only 250 calories in one serving!  Too bad my husband wasn't home to eat it with me.  I even substituted pork for chicken thinking he would be more likely to eat it.  Oh well, I am sure he enjoyed it reheated.  

 I would like to say Lilly helped, but not so much.  She was too busy getting every single diaper out of her drawer and scattering them around the living room.  Little stinker!

 

Beautiful Baby

Last weekend we ran to Salina to visit JD and Lindsay, two wonderful people we met in college.  It was great to see them, but even better to meet their new little one, Marcella! 

More Valentines Prep

Snow day #2 and we were still bored.  More baking!  This time we made John's favorite, Chocolate cookies with Andes mints melted over the top.  Lilly sat on the counter and opened every single mint.  She made a trash pile and a mint pile....and never ate a single one!

 Just wanted to post a pic of the beautiful flowers John got me for anniversary/valentines.  Love him!  Didn't notice at the time, but it would appear she is eating mint....  hummmmmm...must have snuck one past me.

Snow Days Take 2

 What better to do during Parent Teacher Conferences than catch up on blogging!  And man do I have a lot of catching up to do!  At the beginning of the month we had two snow days and a late start morning.  Lilly had I started to get cabin fever so we decided to get ready for Valentine's.  First project, Sugar Cookies.  Lilly did a great job rolling out the dough and pressing out hearts.

 The finished project.

 Felt a little guilty that we were enjoying ourselves inside where it was nice and warm, and John was doing this....  He came home in the middle of the night after pushing snow in Topeka, and had to go back to the farm and get the tractor because he couldn't get in the driveway, even with 4-Wheel Drive.

 Got bored a couple hours after making cookies, so we made dinner too!  Yummy yummy homemade Pizza.  Better just call me Martha Stewart!

Happy Valentine's Day

Go State!

Had to dress to support those Cats on Saturday.  Thank goodness they pulled out a win.
