Dominos Deal!

The Gilmore Girls!

Woohoo! I loved watching the Gilmore Girls back in the day. The series will be available on Netflix starting tomorrow!

Supernatural

WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?! How is it that I wasted so many years of my t.v. viewing life not watching this show?

I recently ditched satellite (and the emormous bill). Seriously, I was paying over $130 a month to watch t.v. So, anyway, I am doing the Netflix/Hulu thing.

I have been binging on Supernatural like nobody's biz.

Pumpkin Spice Cake

It tastes JUST like pumpkin pie! If you are someone who gets the cold sweats if you try to bake without a precise set of instructions and ingredient list.....this is not the recipe for you.

So threw a few things together, and it actually turned out really well!

I mixed a box of spice cake mix and a small can of pumpkin goo together in a bowl. I added two eggs and a little more flour to get a more cake like consistency. I baked it at 350 F until it looked done. I don't have time to time things. Come on.

Once it was cooled, I slopped a container of whipped vanilla icing on it.

IT WAS SO GOOD.

It's everything is pumpkin time!

Chicken and dumpling casserole

Do you have ANY idea how hard it is to find something that seven people will all like? It's hard. If it were up to my kids, we would have tacos or hamburgers every single day. I was craving chicken and dumplings the other day, but I really wasn't in the "soupy mood". I did some sleuthing on the interwebs and found an intriguing recipe for chicken and dumpling casserole. 

Why not? I love casseroles. 

I gave it a shot. 

Everyone L-O-V-E-D it. 

Here is the recipe!

I didn't have sour cream on hand, so I just mixed the chicken broth and cream of chicken soup together for the top layer. 

ENJOY!

Saturday Schmaturday.

It's 1:32 pm on a Saturday, and I am thoroughly enjoying my "lazy" day. I've made coffee, fed and watered the chickens, fed and watered the dogs and cats, made sausage, scrambled eggs and hashbrowns for the fam, washed a couple loads of laundry, made tea and kool-aid, baked a coffee cake, loaded the dishwasher, wiped down the table and counters, swept the kitchen floor, took an hour nap, supervised the kids making their own lunch, vacuumed (Is it 2 c's, 2 u's, or 2 m's in that pesky word?), made my bed, and febrezed the furniture. I need to hit a couple spots with the carpet cleaner, but I believe I am done being productive for the day.

Get in my belly!

How come mine never looks like the picture?! I just put this tasty looking treat in the fridge. I shall update after the kids and I inhale it.

Update: The kids weren't impressed. I really wasn't digging it, either. Bummer.
