A Fall Re Cap

I took quite the hiatus from blogging.  I actually considered deleting this blog as I just haven't had time to update it and I have had a bit of technical problems.  I figured a few technical problems out over the weekend and was inspired to post so it is around for awhile longer I guess.  Here is Oct/Nov/ in pictures.

New Recipes

It has been a long time so instead of listing my meal plan this week I thought I would just try to list a few new recipes that I have tried in the past several months.  You can assume all of them were good...not going to list the failed ones. 

Shepard/Cottage Pie I ommitted the egg and cream cheese.  I used ghee instead of butter and put cheese on only 1/2 of it.  Huge hit with the whole family.

Not So Boring Chicken Stir Fry I followed this recipe pretty loosely

Smoked Roasted Rack of Lamb with Garlic and Rosemary Rub  Brian actually did this one himself and if you like Lamb then you will love this rub.

Egg Free, Tomato Free (Hidden Liver) Paleo Meatloaf

Cranberry Spiked Sausage Balls  I left out the eggs

Masala Cauli-Fried Rice  This is so so good.  I added meat both time that I made this.  Such a delicious meal.

Shawarma Salad This is another absolutely delicious meal with so much flavor.

In November we celebrated Telia's 4th Birthday with a "Jake and the Neverland Pirates" themed party that I put together in about one week. The girls had fun making pixie dust, coloring picture of Jake and his crew and eating cupcakes with treasure on them. We continue to be amazed and grateful to God for the gift of Telia in our lives. She is easy going, loves a lot, extremely imaginative and has become the peacemaker in the house. Happy Birthday T!
