What's for dinner?!

It's that time of the week! It's new recipe night! While it's still early and I haven't started preparing dinner yet (tonight we're having Cheese Stuffed Shells) I did want to make something for after dinner. So Pax and I got busy in the kitchen and made some cupcakes! We have 4 possible guests coming tonight so we had to make a few. We're going to take a rest and then start preparing dinner around 6 pm.

Chili Night!

The first Sunday Cookday was a success! My taste testers included Aubrey, her boyfriend Ben, and Josh. Pax tried to get a tasting, but was unsuccessful. Here are some pics documenting the journey. And for the record--all of the dishes were done as I went along :) Next week is Chicken and Rice Casserole. <3 

Why hello there 2011!

Holy smokes it's already day 2 of the new year! Where has the time gone?? ;)

First and foremost here are my New Year's Resolutions:

1. Make a new slow cooker recipe every Sunday (today is my first shot at Chili! pics will come)
2. Take a fantastic vacation
and 3. Eat my meals only at my table (now that I finally bought chairs)

Speaking of which--My grades last semester ended up being B+ Neuroscience, B Speech Science, B- Communication Differences and Disorders and B- Anatomy and Physiology of the Speech and Hearing Mechanism.

I can't be sure, but Pax seems to have made some New Year's Resolutions as well. Here they are:

1. Get all the way into the couch
2. Gain even more weight
3. Create more hiding places
and 4. Get mommy to stay up all night.

That's about it for now. I have to go scream at the tv to ensure the Giants make it to the playoffs!! Wish me luck on the Chili!!
