What's cooking?

Just wondering what's on your menu this
fabulous Thanksgiving?
And just because I know you want to
know what I'm cooking up here's my
Thanksgiving menu.
Walnut and pear salad. This salad is so dang good.
It has blue cheese and a tangy vinaigrette.
The only thing I change from this recipe is I use strawberries instead of
the bell peppers, I cook the walnuts for less time and I only use about
half the dressing. Other then that everything is the same.
Brussels sprouts with bacon and cransaines!!!
this is something I only make once in awhile and is so very very good that I always
look forward to Thanksgiving just for a reason to indulge. This is so simple
Fry up your bacon, cut the sprouts in half and add to pan. add some salt and pepper. at the very last add those cransaines and cook just
till they are warm. I also use apples sometimes instead of the cransaines.
Rolls!!! and Mash potatoes!!!! I just have one or maybe
two things to say about are friend the mash potatoe. Think of milk as the
Republican party and be conservative with your amount but on the left we have
our Democratic friends salt and butter. Which I feel should be liberally used.
Just saying. Also my friend the Mama Monster gave me this great idea, add
a teaspoon or 2 of apple cider vinegar and your potatoes just pop a little more.
I will for sure be trying out this.

Halloween


Happy Halloween!!!!! We had a blast!!!!

Motocross Dallin. This was the first year that

he ditched us for friends. So sad, but what are you to do?

Dr Mike. Yes that's Mike with no shoes.
What Dr wear shoes or something?

Lauren and Mia. Poor Mia and her
black eye, and yes Lauren gave it to her.
Lucky for us it was only an accident
and Mia forgave.

The cutest witch ever Lauren.
I made her outfit and yes I am so surprised at
how well it turned out. Her skirt was total
inspired by my friend Megan's Halloween banner and
her amazing tassells.

Our cute owl Milo. I also made this with major
help from Martha Stewart. Thanks Martha!!

Every year we get a group shoot with this amazing family.
Such good friends. I keep telling their mama she needs
to add a couple of kids for my new ones to play with, but for some
reason she doesn't respond with YIPPEE I CAN'T WAIT YOU
ARE SO RIGHT. WOW KEM HOW DID I NEVER EVER
THINK OF HAVING A BABY JUST BECAUSE
YOU WENT AND GOT KNOCKED UP.
THIS IS THE PERFECT TIME TO HAVE ANOTHER
ONE JUST FOR YOU. Nope she just looks at me like I am crazy and laughs
in my face, but whatever she will have one because I say so.

Another family we love and another mama who wont
get knock up to support me in this time of gestation. One more
woman who laughs at me but whatever she to will have a baby
because I say so. Please, pretty please
Happy Halloween!!!!

Arrow of Light

Dallin has now left Cub Scouts far behind and is
now a Boy Scout. At his very last pack meeting he received his
Arrow of Light. He was so proud and happy that night.
So dang cute. I guess the Arrow of Light is a huge
deal in the land of Cub Scouts and so I am
also proud of my little man!!!!! Lets just be honest
I have no idea what to do in the world of scouting
that having sons has lead me into. With that said
I am so grateful for scouting leaders who help Dallin get this far
(because it wasn't because of me).
Dallin are you sure your 11 and big enough for camp outs and
all that stuff, because I am sure that I'm not ready for any of it.

Dallin Leaving Cub Scouts!

Dallin walking over the bridge of scouting and becoming a Boy Scouts
(one of the things I don't get)!!!!

Receiving his Arrow of Light


Being so dang handsome.

Stand up 2 Cancer

This Friday the Northridge Cardinelles are hosting
a "Just stand up 2 Cancer" during half time.
Any one who is battling cancer or has battled, a care giver
or if you want to stand in memory of someone. COME
They are doing a miracle minute, where they are trying to
raise as much money as the can during half time.
All the money will be donated to the American Cancer Society....
And just in case your wondering the game is between the
NHS and DHS
Go and support this great cause and stay for a great game......
Also tonight I just saw on Whimsey Pixs that
tonight is a concert and silent auction for Suzie....
Suzie has cancer and is leaving behind her husband and almost 5 yr old daughter.
They have no insurance and could use all the help they can get.
This also is at NHS but you can bid on their blog till around 5pm, so if you can't
make it you can still help.
