Weekend Recap Snowed In in Springdale

   Hey guys it sure has been a while since I did a recap but this weekend sure does deserve one. Lets start with Thursday.

    Thursday was Hubby’s birthday so I made him his requested Lasagna which you can find here, and French Silk Pie (recipe here)! They were delicious and made for a great birthday dinner.

Weekend Recap- RELAX

   Hey guys I hope you stayed warm this weekend!! I think I’ve been living in my Cuddleduds and yoga pants for the most part haha. I know up at home they got snow, lucky ducks I would appreciate a bit of snow with all these freezing temps!

   Friday Hubs got off the whole day and I only had to sub a half day! Which if you’ve been following you know I just recently started subbing, I totally love it! So we got to spend the afternoon together just hanging out. We didn’t do too much other than lounge around and watch tv. I tried out a new recipe for Apple Cinnamon pork chops and completely re did it my own way. It turned out pretty tasty but is missing something so I am going to work with it some more before I share it with all of you wonderful readers.

Update and Weekend Recap

   Hey guys I wanted to write today a little about what has been up the last couple weeks around here. Not a ton but some fun things to share.

   The biggest new thing is I have started subbing. I had been waiting since July for all of my background checks to clear, well really in August all but one was done and it took this long to get it figured out thanks to the school district. Anyways I got to start last Friday.

Weekend Recap

This is a tad late sorry! I have been busy dealing the dog, writing, house work and working on other stuff. Last weekend was great we realxed hung out and had a weekend full of great food!

Friday was the night I baked my first chicken. Now this is a surprising realization to me because I have cooked and baked and done very many surprising things with a lot of different foods, including de boning and skinning a chicken , grinding it up and then mashing it together and boiling it, but never baked a whole chicken.  My mom always did that and she is great at it so I asked her what I needed to do, its surprisingly easy and it turned out great! We hung out watched some TV and just enjoyed each other.

Saturday we went to Little Rock to get some shopping done, really I just wanted to try and spend my gift cards. We ended up just getting a dish drying rack that we really needed, so it satisfied my need to buy something...for now ;). That evening I made Char Sui pork with rice and dumplings. Recipe on Wednesday! It was soooooo stinking good I was impressed.

Sunday it was a cold rainy day and a perfect day to make Chicken and Dumplings made with left over chicken and the bones from the chicken I baked Friday, you can make a ton of stuff from one chicken! As I was making the stock I was just about ready for a nap and my calendar alarm went off saying I had CPR training in 30 minutes. Its a good thing it did that because I had completely forgotten about it. I spent 4 hours learning how to save adults and children if their heart stops or they are choking. Now technically I can do it I know the steps, would you want me to be the one to save you well if I'm the only one around that has training yes other wise I'd be glad to assist whoever else could do it, cuz I would be freaking out.

And that about sums up our weekend we don't do a ton and we get to enjoy eachother, and we get to eat lots of yummy yummy foods.

Weekend Recap Tulsa State Fair

   I hope you had a great weekend we had an eventful one again this week.  Friday we headed home to stay with my parents so we could leave early for the Tulsa State Fair Saturday which took most of the day then Sunday we did our normal routine of relaxing and hanging out with friends.

   Friday when Hubby got home from work we loaded up the car and Tesla and headed out for the almost 3 hour drive. She is great in the car thankfully and just sleeps. Once we got into town we got to see some friends that we haven’t seen since the wedding! Which is way too long. Then headed out to the loved Guido’s for some pizza we can’t get down here.

Weekend Recap- Cinnamon Roll Recipe

   I hope everyone had a great weekend, I did! The In-Laws came over for the first time and got to see our town, then I took a trip home to go to a baby shower to honor some close family friends. It was an eventful weekend and I am still recovering from all the driving.

   Friday evening Hubby’s wonderful parents came down and spent the night we had so much fun. Hubby made some of the best stakes ever and grilled some awesome asparagus that we all loved. We took them on a tour of the town and even hit up a farmers market that I had no idea was there and I can’t wait to make it a regular stop on the weekend. Saturday morning I made homemade cinnamon rolls that turned out soooo stinking good I just have to share them with you.  First though read what I else I did this weekend.

Yummy gooey amazingness!

Weekend Recap: Pinnacle Mountain

   Hope yall had a great weekend! We sure did.  Friday Minecraft came out so we spent most of the evening playing. Saturday we relaxed and took the dog on a few walks. Sunday though was our exciting day we hiked a mountain!

   Minecraft is a video game on Xbox if you didn’t know. Now typically playing games is not something you will find me doing, but this one I love. It is basically building and breaking blocks and I play the mode where you can’t die and things aren’t attacking you. It sure is fun!! Now Hubby enjoys playing the mode where you can die, no surprise there he likes a challenge, and he enjoys playing that way with his friends online while I watch.  It was a great way to spend Friday evening.

Saturday was full of wearing out the dog who is soooo energetic. We went on three walks and she still could have done more.
