Steak, potatoes and some greens....

Nothing like a tried and tested meal with a few twists.

When someone gives you lemons....you make????

Lemon loaf of course!!!

Ok, well no one gave us lemons, but you always end up with too much when you shop at Costco.  Note...this recipe won't put a dent in your lemon inventory, as it only uses one.  But I suppose it could if you made more than one loaf!

Hubby needs dinner....Oven Roasted Chicken Thighs?

Shawn was getting sick of the same old chicken thigh recipe during the week, so he challenged me to make them more delicious....I am always up for a challenge.

More specifically he asked me to make a recipe he found online.  I pretty much followed it exactly.  Verdict....they were delicious, but on the down side....not very healthy.  We need to strike a balance.  I am not going to go through the step-by-step directions (you can follow via the link above).  Here are some pics from my process.

Beef Short Rib Crock Pot Experiment

Shawn hates all things cooked in the crock pot; however, I am determined to make something he will enjoy.  Today's challenge....beef short ribs.



Our Family Day Dinner menu included:

Need some warmth...butternut squash soup!!!

It is absolutely freezing outside, the fire is roaring, but we still need more warmth.  Homemade butternut squash soup will do the trick.
