Autumn Soups...


Hey out there!
Quick note to say that I made the Lentil Sausage soup the other night- and REALLY liked it. Only change was that I didn't have any fennel (do you?!?!). And, if I were doing it again, I'd add either more water- or a can of broth/stock of some sort. The leftovers didn't have enough liquid. And, I only used 2 Tbsp of red wine vinegar- didn't want that to be too strong. And, I think I tossed a little thyme on each bowl.

Also realized that I didn't put a link on the Butternut Squash with Cider Cream soup. This has become a bit of a thanksgiving tradition around here- however, we had 3 butternut squash from the garden- so I made it early. Check it out! Sooooo yummy!!!! I ate every last drop!

Tammy- let us know how the pumpkin soup is and any changes you made (so I can use them when I make it!)

If you have a bread maker--- a cheddar cheese and onion bread is delicious with just about any soup! If you'd like the recipe for that (it's in the kitchen and I'm feeling so lazy right now...) email me!

Have a COZY day!

Parental Rights?



Do you have the right to pass on your faith to your children? To decide what movies are appropriate for them? To decide when you want them to learn about alternative lifestyles and "the birds and the bees"?

If we want to have the freedom to answer the Lord's call to make disciples of our kids- we'd better be involved in passing this amendment! Tell your friends and family- post on your blogs- GET OUT THE WORD!!! We need to reject the UN Convention on the Rights of a Child and ratify the Parental Rights Amendment. Visit Parental Rights.org for more information and how you can get involved.

Fall Menu 2009

Just finished the overdue fall menu.  I really hate when bedtime and everything else gets backed up b/c I'm standing in front of the pantry staring aimlessly at cans upon cans hoping beyond hope that one will jump out and form itself into a healthy, gluten-free, balanced meal.  That has YET to happen.  (Shocker!)  So, perhaps you can benefit from this, somehow...  Hope so!  My favorite recipe sites are allrecipes.com, bhg.com, and momadvice.com.  Bon Appetite! (if you'd like the file- email me)
