Superbowl News and Recipe

Ok, not too much excitement here on the Superbowl Front, but I for one would love to the Steelers win- got many friends/family who would love to see this happen and the Steelers are an AFC team....

Dave does not care and doesn't not like the Steelers... but he's deep frying a turkey! Yum, yum, yum!!!

On the agenda for today: SWC Conference Wrestling Tournament at RS-- Go Mounties!!

Here's a great appetizer for your party time tomorrow... this comes from my niece Caitlin, but I did jazz it up a bit.

Pepperoni Puffs

1 can cream of chicken soup
1/4 c vegetable shortening - melted
3 c Bisquick
3/4 c chopped pepperoni (or use more!)
3 tsp minced onion ( or less)
1 tsp Italian seasoning
garlic salt (if you'd like)
1/2 c mozzerella cheese

1. Combine soup and shortening
2. add Bisquick and mix well
3. Fold in pepperoni, spices, onion, and - mix well... if too dry, add water or olive oil
4. Drop by tsp onto ungreased cookie sheet. Sprinkle with garlic salt
5. Bake at 400 * for 15 minutes or until golden and puffed...

EASY EASY EASY!!

Going to try something differnt with my blog

This is still our blog, but in an effort for me to keep up with it, I am going to share secrets and cooking ideas. I would like to post recipes and information... so I am going to try:

First up:

Corn Casserole

I got this from Paula Deen's show, but have made it my own! Dave says I can't just let something be the recipe!!

1 can creamed corn
1 can whole kernal corn
1 pkg Jiffy cornbread mix
1 cup sour cream- I use Fat Free!
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese
garlic salt to taste
2 tsp minced onion


1. Mix corns, sour cream, and jiffy mix together. Add garlic salt and minced onion
2. Pour into a greased small casserole dish.
3. Bake at 350* for 45 minutes, then take out and top with cheese...
4. Bake another 8-10 minutes...
5. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.



I like to top the cheese with cracked black pepper and garlic salt before putting it back in... It's delicious!!

I promise to do better but...

Life it seems has a mind of its own. I have not blogged, but will try to do a weekly update on this blogsite.

All is well... Dave has two practices left with his JV football team. The team is 6-3 on the year and have beaten two county rivals: Crest and Shelby. WE hope to continue county dominance with a victory of Burns Thursday night. I will let you know the outcome.. if they win, Dave has to wear a banana suit and do a Banana dance....

We had a nice birthday dinner on Sunday for me and Lee... at the ole standby El Acapulco.... Last night Dave took me to eat Italian on my official 39th birthday. Yep, I admit.. am 39 and one day!!

Thanksgiving is right around the corner so we are looking forward to having a great time... the planning begins!!

Haven't posted in the while again.. duh

Ok, school drives me crazy... I never seem to have enough time in the day!!! I am going to try to do better...

All is well.... we are a month into school and it's been wild.

Dave's JV football team in 1-2 on the season. WE are hoping for the same turnaround they had last year at this time. They are playing well and Dave is pleased so it will be positive no matter what the outcome. Those kids have to learn to play hard, clean, and not give up.

My new school is different, but good. Had a good first couple of weeks and am enjoying the new building. I have not been able to retire the space heater as it's generally cold in the building!! I have had tons of meetings after school and haven't done my best getting back to the gym as I had planned, but once things settle down I hope to be better.

Dave and I both were accepted into the history grant again- that's how we met two years ago- and we will take a week long trip to Kansas City and New Orleans next June. Never been to Kansas City- even though Momma got pregnant with me while she and Daddy lived there -- so am excited to see a new place!!!

Ok, so it's been a while

I am going to try to update this more often... yeah, yeah, but that's the plan....


Alls well... school starts on Monday... first football game for the JVs on Thursday at home then away on Friday for the varsity.... Hunter Huss!

Off to parental units for birthday dinner for Julie tonight.... sushi awaits!!

Won down, two to go

KM baseball won it's opening game today in the Shelby Easter tournament. They play tomorrow at 7 against the winner of the Shelby- Crest game...

It's OVER

Well, day three of married life is pretty darn good!!!!

Here is a picture that my sister took at the reception. I thought overall we had a GREAT day despite the rain and the screw up with directions- Just call me LEFTY from now on....

Here is a link to the dj's website and a slideshow set to the music of Mr. Bruce Springsteen that can be viewed for a little bit. We will post more pictures and link soon.
