In The Kitchen

It is a stormy Sunday night here on the east coast

and I have already lost power once

so I thought I would dash off a quick post in case it goes again....

yes ~ this was this afternoon

and they said that it is going to get worse

Trev is doing a little happy dance as it more than likely means

no school tomorrow

gotta love a good snow day

me on the other hand have to go in regardless

I don't get snow days

I know ~ boohoo ~ woe is me

so what does one do when the snow is blowing

well beside stay in my pj's all day long

I knock a few more recipes off my

28 recipes in 28 days list

I started off with miniature pineapple upside down cakes

I love the look of them and they are perfect

with a cuppa tea

  

then I made some cookies for my boy

he loves anything chocolate

so these Rolo cookies fit the bill

they were easy peasy and really rich

next up was a traditional Acadian meat pie

called a Tourtiere

this can be frozen and popped into the oven the night 

we want it for supper

last thing off the list this weekend 

was mini Italian meatballs

I made for another planned recipe

they are teeny tiny and I just mixed up some ground beef

with an egg, some Italian seasoning, parmesan cheese

and breadcrumbs

then boiled them in beef broth to cook

I can't wait to throw them into this soup,

So after all the cooking and baking was done

I put supper in the oven

and settled into the tub with a book

it was the perfect way to finish off the afternoon.

I wanted to share with you a couple of things I ordered

after Christmas that came in last week

I ordered this from The Rusted Chain

love her stuff and wanted to get a necklace with my word on it

I also came across this one which I fell in love with

as soon as I saw it

found on Etsy at Branded Heart Jewely

I would order from her again

on my last trip to Costco I picked up a couple of books

from two of my favourite authors

can't wait to read these ones.

Hope you all had a good weekend!
