When is a veggie no longer a veggie???

My son maybe the only kid that thinks peanut butter celery is a treat, but what if it has red and green rice crispy cereal, chocolate chips and shredded cocoanut on top??

Ps. Baby Missy Miss D licked/sucked and in no tidy way or with any table manners what so ever her loaded peanut butter celery...... And left the celery.

  Missy Miss J has been Home from school sick the last few days, to pass the time stuck in the house we did some cooking together.  We invented our own recipe for Zucchini-sausage-cornbread muffins.  THEY TURNED OUT GREAT!!!!! and will work great for school lunches or breakfast. We also took photos of ourselves in the kitchen while we waited for them to bake........because we are just that cute.

The Days Drag On But ,The Years Fly By

<p>&lt;p&gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;We have had 4 birthdays in our house in the past 6 Weeks.   That guy I married was the first of the bunch. He asked for the same thing as he asks for each year....dinner at home. The kids made him banana cream pie  themselves for the first time and it was perfect.&nbsp; <


      Next up was Missy Queen Bee big D turning the BIG ten. She, however wanted more than a dinner at home. She wanted a PARTY!!!!of course.  This is just a tiny peek at the day in question because I cant seem to find the other photos. Blurg. Anyways can you guess the theme????

Nice hat right????  It was made to order from her Grammy.

chocolate peanut butter nest!!!! yum

Missy Big D and Missy Miss J made these dudes for over the table during the party but, we loved them so much that now they hang in the girls room.

many little owl cakes were made by the 10 beautful party guest.This one was mine.hahaha he was a funny little fellow.

The girls made feather earrings. PRETTY

A super cool friend had her grama make D the super cool hat seen Here.

     Missy miss D and her BFF.

We whipped up a batch of Kool-Aid lipgloss for the sake of a good time.Here is the how to. The gals at the party wanted it to be RED so we used about 1 cup jelly to 3 kool-Aid packs

Food was eaten,drinks were drunk ,dances were danced and then it was time to head into One Sons 6th birthday. will post him next so keep watching.

Frozen Yogurt Drops

These were so quick!!! I squeezed these little guys on to a baking pan,then just popped them in the freezer.While We waited, I gave Little Missy Baby D a bath and put her in her jammies. With no other effort we had ourselves  frozen yogurt drops.
       We voted they would be good or maybe great with a bowl of berries. They are our new homemade version of those icecream"dots" or whatever. We also voted topped with coconut or tossed with sprinkles would rock our socks.
We only did vanilla because that was what we had in house, but all flavors would keep us happy.

Leftover To Newovers Meat Sauce Pizza

Leftovers to Newover is our families talk for using up leftovers by creating a new meal.


      A  bag of leftover tomato~meat sauce (from  lasagna)that was in my freezer was given a new life as a pizza.  I dropped the frozen bag in a pot of boiling water to defrost and whipped up my quick pizza crust. Rolled out the crust,spread with sauce, covered in cheese and back.




My good friend Leyla gave me this recipe for  pizza crust years ago. It works every time. I often add spices and what not but do as you please. This makes one Large pizza. I triple it when I make dough and any leftovers go in the freezer.

Pizza Crust

1tbsp yeast
1/4 tsp salt
1tbsp sugar
1 cup warm water

Mix the above together until foams.

2 cups flour

knead
let stand 15 mins bake @ 400* for 15-17 mins
