Sorry things have been a little slow around here. Since the day after Christmas I have had a horrible cold. It knocked me out & I've only left the house once in eight days. But I'm feeling a little better & think I'm on the up swing. On top of that a portion of our basement flooded & we had a sewer gas problem in one of our bathrooms. It has been a busy week for my husband, especially since all I really could do was lay in bed. He was a trooper though & took care of all the kids, ran to the store (& even got everything on the list & for the best price), did dishes, & took care of our mild disasters. Things are getting fixed, including my sinuses, and I'll start posting more regularly again this week.
I wanted to brag on my hubby & Mom for a minute. They got me the best Christmas present ever this year, a KitchenAid mixer! I've been wanting one of these since the day I got married nine years ago. I just figured it wouldn't happen for a few more years. But everyone chipped in & surprised me. I've only used it twice, since I was sick cooking & baking have been on the back burner. I can't wait to really mix some stuff up! I think my poor little hand beaters are relieved that they don't have to mix up my banana bread recipe anymore. I have the best hubby & family in the world, I really do.
Hope y'all had a good New Years, I'll be back soon with some more recipes & ideas.
