I made a batch of marmalade today. I enjoy canning, and I haven't gotten to in a while. It sure does make a mess, but I love seeing all of my colorful jars and having food on hand.
I remember falling with both of my other two, but, fingers crossed, maybe I won't with this one.
I had cooked chicken breast in the freezer and leftover corn in the fridge, so I put that in Kraft foods and came up with this: Santa Fe Enchilada Bake recipe
I know I am tired tonight and am ready for bed!
Yum Leah! That looks good! I love the Kraft site. I use it all the time.

Our spaghetti was good. I grated cheese on top and baked it in the oven. Ummmmm! My dad phoned while I was making dinner. He had made himself a nice big pizza and when he went to cook it in his oven the element went! He drove the 10 mins to our house to bake his pizza. LOL. Then he took it home to eat. DH & DD weren't home from the grocery store so I had a 30 min visit with my dad while I made cake pops.
Ugh, I feel gross. I know if I go to bed now (8:15 pm) I'll be up at some horrible hour tomorrow...so i'll try to tough it out.
Oh Leah, that Enchilada looks great!!! Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
We ended up with tacos for dinner. I wanted to use up leftovers from tuesday and DH has an issue with leftovers.
Tonight is grilled cheese and soup though, because I really want that now ;) It's florida, but it's chilly here (don't make fun), it was 49 F this morning. I'm from Michigan orginally, but I've adapted and now 60 F feels crisp and chilly to me. lol!
I've never used that before. Is it good? I'm always looking for a new recipe site.Quote:

Heather, you inspired my taste buds so I made spaghetti last night too (well angel hair but close enough). DD doesn't like sauce on noodles so she had hers with just Parmesan cheese but DS went nuts over dinner. I even used spicy marinara so I wasn't sure if he would eat it but he ate a ton. Score!
Random question...so I'm getting DH a pool table for his 30th birthday that's coming up. I've researched what I'm getting endlessly and now I'm just stuck between green and tan cloth for the top. Stupid I know but this is a long term investment. My house is very rustic with lots of wood and browns/cremes/tans so tan would really fit in but green is so traditional for pool tables...I don't know. Anyone have any thoughts or general opinions?
Ashley - Glad I could inspire! My DD doesn't really like pasta or sauce so she doesn't eat spaghetti. We don't push different foods on her because I don't feel it's worth the fight. She eats healthy so that's all that matters! One days she'll eat normally, right? I was picky at her age but now I love different food!
As for the pool table, I'd probably go with green because it's classic and if you ever wanted to re-sell it you might have an easier time. That said, I know absolutely NOTHING about this topic. :P
I have SO been into grilled cheese lately! SO good! There's just something simple but good about them. My tummy loves the idea of them too!
Ashley - I do think the green is tradtional, but I think the tan is so elegant looking in a house, especially if you are getting one with the leather pockets. SOrry, that wasn't much help, lol!
I did stop at whole foods and got some fruit and milk, but didn't make it out of the store without a dozen mini chocolate cupcakes! I ate 3! :eek: they were so good. I felt bad so as I was checking out I threw a copy of fit pregnancy on top of them. They must have thought I was crazy.
Oh, and I remembered why I don't shop at whole foods much. 3 apples, 3 oranges, 1 1/2 organic milk, mini cupcakes and the magazine and I paid $25. The lady in front of me bill was $439 and she hardly had a cart full. I wasn't nosy enough to spy on what she bought. I love that store, but they are expensive.
