Dinners.

Lately it feels like I make the same thing over and over again for dinner, week after week. So this past week I decided to wake up the taste buds and make all new recipes. Not really sure how everyone else felt about me doing that but it didn't matter because . . . well, frankly, because I'm the cook, and if nobody else is willing to stand up and claim that title in our household then I feel like I am entitled to make whatever I wish.
I found some shrimp in the back of the freezer and debated on using it or throwing it out and I figured why not use it. So then I started searching and came upon a recipe for shrimp fajitas which ended up being a winner. . . . even the baby ate it. This recipe has officially found a permanent home in my recipe book and I will definately be making this again in the future.

Happy Valentine's Day

I started our day out with a heart breakfast for everyone and I have a few celebration ideas up my sleeve for when the kids get out of school. Hope everyone has a great day filled with love.

Yummy to my Tummy.

This is a favorite of mine. It has recently become a requested after-school snack at our house. I came across it while going through piles and piles of cookbooks at my mom's house one afternoon. Throw in a blender 1 c. frozen blueberries, 1/2 c. frozen strawberries, one small banana, 1/2 c. plain yogurt, 3/4 c. orange juice and 1/3 c. pineapple juice. Mix it all together and you've got one yummy smoothie.

Star of the Week.

Made these cute little buggers for Colton's first grade class last week when he was the Star of the Week which he was very excited to be. This totally represents him - the plastic shovel, the worms. I love how they turned out so I'm makin' them again for Weston's little preschool class for his Valentine's party.
