My friend Christine is always putting great recipes on her blog. So, I thought since I am getting ready to start a recipe "scrapbook" and was taking pictures anyways; I'd do the same. This recipe is the easiest recipe to make and taste the best! This recipe will feed 4 as a side dish; but my husband and I eat it as a meal for lunch just the 2 of us. At Christmas; I tripled the recipe and added some shredded cheddar cheese before the breadcrumbs.

400 degrees on the oven

1 Can Cheddar Cheese Soup
1/2 Soup Can Milk
1/2 tsp pepper
1 1/2 Cup Pasta - Cooked and Drained
1 TBS dry bread crumbs - I use 4 because I like crunch and I use stuffing breadcrumbs.
2 TBS Butter, melted - I use 3 -4 with my crumbs

Stir soup, milk, pepper and pasta in a 1 QT Baking dish. Stir breadcrumbs and butter together and sprinkle over pasta.
Bake 2o minutes or until bubbly. Best when hot; but can be heated in microwave. ENJOY!

Vent Time

You ever notice that when someone needs you; they need you "drop everything now" need you; but when you need someone to do something for you....they tend to disappear. Some of my New Year's Resolutions were to have more me time and slow down. Neither has happened. I can honestly say that since the beginning of the year; I have been disappointed, let down, used, and forgotten more than the last 6 months of 2009. Why would I ever think it would change?

Chicago Bound

Last summer we met some of the most awesome people. We were invited to go on a trip to NY with a Jr. High class. It was perfect for us; no driving and a tour group so we would not get lost. We had the most fantastic time. That same group has invited us to on another trip. This time to Chicago and on Amtrak. I have always wanted to take a ride on Amtrak and my husband has always wanted to go to Chicago. Our trip is in the middle of June and we are excited!

Friday Night

I can remember going out every Friday night. Not just going out; but staying out until the sun came up the next morning. I can barely stay awake past 9:30 pm now. Usually on Friday nights now; I am cropping with the Friday Night croppers. Tonight; everyone seemed to have something else going on. I was really just too tired. It has been a long week! I cannot wait to get back on schedule and crop every Friday night. I get more done when I am with the girls. I am on track with completing my uncompleted projects. Well until next time; hopefully Sunday; have a great day!

Pop Dots

I buy lots of supplies and when I catch something on sale or clearance items; I buy it regardless if I need it at the time or not. My philosophy has always been; Someone may need it or I may need it down the road. So many moons ago I caught Pop Dots on clearance at Wal-Mart; $0.69 each pack. I bought 10 packs. I passed them on to someone else because I didn't like them. I went to Michaels and again found some pop dots on sale; I only bought one package because I was a little iffy on them after the Wal-Mart incident. Well, I used them today for the first time. I wished I would have bought them out. They are call All Night Media Pop Dots and come in a very plain package. I love these things! I will definately be on the lookout for more of these.

Putt Putt



This is probably one of my favorite layouts. A tension mistake on my Cricut produced the Grand Prix title. I also created a golf ball with my Cuttlebug and used a new technique of chalking words in the journal.
