Already?

Wow, it’s only day two of NaBloPoMo and I’m already out of ideas of what to post.  Instead of anything deep and profound, I’ll leave you with this quick recipe:

 Spicy Cracker Dip


Cheap, plastic skull goblet optional.
 

  • 2 pks. soft cream cheese (regular or low fat) - softened to room temp.
  • 1 small jar of salsa
  • 1 lb hot, lean turkey sausage - casings removed
  • 1 c. shredded mozzarella cheese
  1. Preheat oven to 350.
  2. Brown turkey sausage, drain fat, and set aside
  3. Mix all ingredients together and place in casserole dish
  4. Top with mozzarella cheese
  5. Bake until hot and bubbling.  Serve with Ritz crackers.

An adventure in baby food.

What type of insane human being buys 8 lbs of carrots, 10 lbs of potatoes, and ungodly huge bags of spinach for no real reason other than “hey, they were a good value.”?  Me, obviously.

Now, what do you do with said truckload of veggies?  Why, make a truckload of baby food, of course!


Left:  Chicken/veggie medley  Right:  Spinach, carrots, and potatoes. Yummy, huh?
 

Carrots and potatoes
 
Seriously, though.  All this (there are also two more ice cube trays not pictured) may have cost me a total of $4 to make.  Much, much cheaper than jarred baby food.
Oh yeah, and here’s one of the things I’ve been working on:

From the Longcat Scarf pattern
And it’s reversable!

Longcat is LOOOOOOOOONNNNNGGG!
And, for good measure, here’s a picture of the Nooblet opening her Valentine’s Day present from her boooyyyfffrieeend.
 
Adorable… utterly adorable.

I’m saucy!

Someday… someday I might actually post a craft. Until that fateful day, here is yet another quick recipe:

Spicy Turkey Pasta Sauce

MEAT!
I can’t think of anything witty to say about this picture.

Yet another recipe that was born out of speed and necessity. This is a simple meat sauce, so the recipe might seem really familiar.

 

  • 1 package hot turkey sausage
  • 1 large can of your favorite tomato sauce
  • 1-2 tbsp brown sugar
  • Black pepper to taste
  1. Remove the casing from the turkey sausage and brown in a large pan.
  2. Add the tomato sauce and heat until everything is warm.
  3. Season to taste. Pour over pasta and top with lots of cheese.

It’s not groundbreaking or very original, but it tastes amazing!

Recipes aside, I recently started doing a few little swaps on Swap-bot.com. This is the lovely bag I was sent by my partner Noodleroll:
