I was a little late planning this week so I'm a little late posting...
Monday - Chicken Tortilla casserole, corn, peaches
Tuesday - Pot Roast with potatoes and carrots
Wednesday- FAB at church
Thursday - Corn Chowder, cheese, homemade bread if I'm ambitious
Friday/Saturday - dinner plans both evenings so less cooking!!
We head to the apple orchard with Emma's preschool class tomorrow so perhaps I'll treat my family to a homemade apple pie this week (okay, so my homemade pie uses a Pillsbury crust... it's worth the less stress for me, but I sure would like to take Sarah's seminar someday!!)
About Me
- Kris
- I am a wife, a mother, a daughter, a sister, and a friend. But first I'm a woman and I'm committed to taking care of myself so that I can have good relationships with others. This is not always easy. Okay, some days it's just plain impossible but I'm working at it! For almost 3 1/2 years I have been home raising children. Though quite difficult at first, I feel very content with my lifestyle choice. I am grateful that I have this "choice" and that it was mine to make. In college, I spent three months living in Costa Rica, Central America, for a Study Service Term. While there, I became familiar with the term Pura Vida. My interpretation of the phrase is "life is good." Sure, I have complaints and I am full of flaws. Many times things don't go my way. But hey, who has the perfect life (and wouldn't that be boring)?! My life is good!!

Have you made the corn chowder before? I keep seeing recipes for corn chowder in magazines or online and they look kinda good. I've never made or tasted corn chowder, so I was curious about it.
Your menu looks good this week. I was planning on making an apple pie this week; just as soon as we finish eating the apple crisp from last week.
I'm so excited because today I got my first shipment of CC's coffee (from NO). We decided to start mail ordering. I've been missing it for so long....no more Starbucks!
I have not made the corn chowder before but it's a recipe from my friend, Beth. She served it last time we were at their house and it was delicious. Honestly, if I had seen corn chowder listed in a recipe book before, it never would have caught my eye. But this was so tasty!! I will post it sometime, giving Beth the credit of course!
I want to make crusts soon for the holidays. Perhaps we should set a date. Your meals look very yummy! Particularly the Chicken Tortilla Casserole. I've been craving Mexican food. Did you upgrade your blog to Beta? I like the new look!
I would love that. It would be more fun if I could work with you and learn your secrets. And yeah, the tortilla casserole was inspired by a couple of avocados that needed to be eaten.
I'm not sure if this is Beta. How do I know? I just wasn't inspired to write much last week but I felt like doing something on my blog, so I decided to change the look. I like the light better than the dark.
You would know if you switched it to Beta because it's a lot of work. I like changing the blog look every once in awhile - makes it feel new!
Hey y'all. I'd love to get in on a pie crust making workshop if there is one that will be open to the public!:) I've never really gotten the hang of doing my own crusts too well, I suppose since I haven't practiced enough. As a result, I shy away from making pies even though I really love them!
