Bake Sale

Hello everyone, the GA's had a bake sale a few weeks ago my daughter made brownies and I made cupcake.  The dyed sugar that I did came in handy.  I used it all!  I need to dye more, but I don't think it will be anytime soon...lol.  The bake sale is for the GA's to send baby chics over seas through the Samaritan's Purse.  They have almost reached their goal!  I am so proud of them this time because they are actually doing the work and selling their items.  I think they might deserve a pizza party after this mission project! 
     Here are my colorful, sugary cupcakes!

Just a few of them!

I Finished My Apron

Hello everyone.  I am so very excited and proud of myself.  I finished my apron.  he last sewing project of the year. We won't have another sewing class until September :0(, but we got to take our sewing machines home with us.  I can't wait to see what my daughter and I will sew over the summer.  I think there might be doll clothes and bags and who knows what else we will sew.  My daughter finished her butterfly pillow, that is her second project.  Her friend made a doll quilt and she put the finishing touches on that today too.  We had a blast learning to sew and we have an amazing teacher.  Thank you Mrs.B.J. for all of your time and patience.  We love you.

The Caribbean Jerk Chicken

The Caribbean Jerk chicken wasn't as good as it smelt.  The marinade smelt delicious, and when it was cooking it smelt great too.  I don't know what happened between then and when we ate it, but to me it was not flavorful like I was hoping it would be and my chicken lg kind of tasted like turkey...weird...lol.  Anyway, here is a pic of what it looked like.  Thanks for looking and reading.  God Bless.

Oven Fried Chili Chicken

Hello everyone.  I have been waiting to blog about this for a day or two now.  This turned out so crunchy and crispy.  It was really good this one also got a smiley face.  It had just enough spices.  If you would like this recipe or any others I have posted here, let me know by leaving a comment and I will leave the recipe in the comments for all to see.  Thanks for looking and reading, God Bless.

Toffee Bars...Yummy!

This is a dessert recipe I tied today...it was sooooo good!  It was made in three parts.  Part one was the egg yolk, brown sugar and butter.  Part two was the condensed milk, butter and vanilla.  Part three was the chocolate chips and the pecans.  I was so surprised at how this came out. This gets a smiley face too! If you would like this recipe for this or any other dish I have made let me know and I will leave it in the comments for you.  Thanks for looking, reading and have a wonderfully Blessed Night.

I think they were walnuts...not pecans...lol. :0)

Lemon and Herb Chicken

Hello everyone.  Tonight we had green beans, rice and McCormick's Lemon and Herb Chicken.  It got thumbs up around our dinner table.  It was pretty good.  And I am happy that I get to mark that one off with a smiley sticker in the composition book.  I also fixed a cookie recipe it's a sugar cookie recipe and I don't think they are very good, I haven't let them try one yet...but we will see what the dessert taste testers say...lol.  Let me know if there are any recipes for this one or any that I have on my blog and I will be more than happy to leave it in the comments for everyone.  Thanks for looking and thanks for reading.  God Bless.

Surfboard Cake

Hello everyone, well I did it.  It didn't turn out the way I had imagined it would, but not at all bad for my first surfboard cake.  It can only get better the more I do this one...which I don't know if I will again but anyway.  Here it is, I forgot to take a picture of it before I put it in the bakery box.  Mr.K sells just the boxes for about $3.00.

It just so happens that it was JP, Alvin and my birthday on the same day. (Saturday...lol).  Thanks for looking and reading.  God Bless.

Colored Sugar and Enchilada Pizza

Hello everyone.  Today I dyed a lot of sugar.  It is so easy and fun...lol.  I now have blue, green, yellow, coral and a brownish color. 

The book is the cupcake one, "What's New Cupcake".  Awesome book.
Tonight's dinner was Enchilada Pizza.  It was good.  Everyone enjoyed it.  I can't wait to put a smiley face in the book.  Another recipe down and I am not sure how many we have left.  If anyone would like this recipe or any other ones let me know and I will post them or place them in the comments.  Thanks for looking and reading.  God bless.
