leftovers

What can you do with leftovers?
I had made a big batch of sauce for lasagna the other day we have used this sauce for two meals now. I was trying to figure out what I could make that was different from spaghetti. Looking through my fridge I saw that we had refrigerator biscuits and thought immediately to making personal pizzas. In my mind they were supposed to look like jack-o-lanterns instead they look like happy faces. The kids had a great time making them and trust me they got created.! One turned out more like a worm.
We than sat around the table enjoying one anothers company.
And there is nothing better than finishing the evening with homemade Ice Cream.
(Orange ice cream may I add.)

Orange ice cream? I don't doubt that it is tasty, because I have never had anything but the best ice cream from you guys. But orange? Do you use orange juice or orange zest or maybe orange peel? Let me know- I'm curious?

So Cute. I am glad you let your kids cook with you. I am too much of a control freak and my kids give the kitchen a pretty wide berth. But I did let Stiles help me make jam. HE was jazzed. Do you think that they might eat their veggies if they cooked them?

My last trip to Albertson's turned out to be the best! Yes, I know you are sick of me posting about shopping but I had a few of you ask.. How I do it? I ended up spending $1.77 for what you see in the picture. You ask how? Albertson's Ad had two double coupon certificates in their ad where they would double up to 3 manufacture coupons per certificate. There are a few sites I continuously go to print off coupons they are... Betty Crocker Coupon Cat Pillsbury Albertson's had a sale when you bought $30 worth of certain items you would get 3 $5 dollar coupons for your next purchase. I grouped all my coupons together to try to get the best deal I could. The first time I purchased it actually cost me $17 something but I had $15 for a next purchase. The trick was to get 6 $1 coupons which equaled $12 +$15=$27 ....out of pocket=$3 and then 3 more $5 coupons would print out and you beg your neighbor friends or anyone you can for more double coupons and go back I pretty much lived ...

I'm Tired!

As a parent we are usually the first ones to hear if there is a complaint or a problem. My kids tend to voice their opinions frequently to me or anyone that will listen. We have tried different methods to curve their behavior with no victory. We have also taken parenting classes watched love and logic videos, watched our share of the Nanny. Yet we were still coming up short. Our biggest problem was finding a privileged that could be taken away. Last week I was reading my Sister in-laws blog and she was telling of how she uses bedtime as a privileged. So We have adopted this concept into our daily life and it seems to be making an impact on my kids. We have a chart with the days of the week and we give our children the opportunity to stay up a half hour after bedtime if they can get through the day without getting their initial written on the chart. However they can also loose hours and get sent to bed early for every initial (besides the first one)they have chosen to go to bed 1/2 hr ...

2/17/2020 Donnie's Baptsim We had a great week this week Donnie got baptized! We also had 5 friends at church they are doing great. I really like all the people I get to work with. They have all been prepared and everything. The message I have is short, Love one another. I know that the best way to show your love is service. Service can be as simple as smiling at someone. God has commanded us to love one another, if we love one another we will feel the love that God has for them and for us, because we are showing Him that we want to take care of His flock. I want to invite you guys to serve someone that you might think is struggling that does not mean to ask them if they are struggling do it because you love them and they will pass it on.  I love you all I know that this week isn't anything super deep it is simple, that is because the Gospel is simple, we are commanded to love one another as He has loved us. I am keeping you in my prayers and I ap...
