Go with what you know...
The other night I tried a new recipe. It did not go so well. I didn't have enough of the main ingredient (what is potato soup without enough potatoes?). I ran out of some ingredient tried something different. It tasted... a little off. Then I tried spices to cover it. I try not to waste food. I eat things even if they didn't turn out so great. This night... we ate a bowls worth and threw the 'leftovers' out. I shouldn't always experiment.
So the next night I decided to go with my trusty Chicken noodle soup. But of course I have to try something new again. I usually put a can of cream of chicken soup in it, but today I wanted to be adventurous and try to make my 'own' cream of chicken. It took longer than opening up a can and putting in the mysterious glob, but it turned out great!
So my new cream of chicken came from Tammy! Yum!

Happiness
I love when laughter fills the house that is over silliness. You got to pause the music and listen to these sweet kids laughing away.
Beware of my future posts... they are a little out dated, but worth the memories.

Christmas Stocking #4
As usual, everything "extra" in life is pushed aside when I am finishing a stocking before Christmas. My stocking is finished and actually hung up over the fireplace this year!
It is called "Christmas Cookies"
Have you ever thought about your family having personalized stockings... and don't want to do the work? I saw a lady selling them finished on Etsy! If you do have a desire to do them yourself, this is my favorite site to purchase the kits.

I Love Giveaways!
So my amazing friend Jessica and her family have an outdoor adventure blog. They share great tips on how to take your kids on adventures in the outdoors with you and your spouse! They always have amazing videos and great pictures to share. In preparing for Christmas they are doing the 12 days of Outdoor Christmas and giving away FREE stuff for your family for the next 12 days! Today starts with something we always enjoyed as a kid... go on over and check it out. They choose a winner totally random so go take a look.
You won't be disappointed!
Touch Screen Computer
Aaron started to reformat our laptop computer this last weekend. It is up and running, but still needs some work. I realized that my computer (the one that hasn't been touched in over a year) is more than 7 years old and.. well just dead. Pointless. It is just sitting on a desk in our den- purely for looks now. Caroline goes in there and pretends that she has to type some stuff up before she can do anything else. SO I guess it has turned into a toy.
I have been stalking this sweet girl's sewing blog for a while now- well I guess I follow it so I might be considered a virtual friend. I have made some pretty cool stuff because of her. Katy at nobigdill has blogged about an awesome giveaway for an HP touch screen computer. Wouldn't it be cool if Caroline and Henry had a computer of thier own to play with? I am blogging about it to get a double chance at the lottery for winning this cool invention. Wish me luck!
Favorite snack
My new favorite snack:
Cottage cheese and Stacy's Pita Chips (you know the really big bag from Costco)
Yum
