Do I feel like I got a lot done? YES!<br />I will work on finding my camera, as pictures are so much nicer.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3936369240079262098.post-68478189198885090392011-03-08T14:36:00.000-08:002011-03-08T15:10:05.017-08:00Little things .....that make life easier<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:180%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">My new bag!!!!</span></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoCkIyVxkqzexNPOAVpwjACXQ87niC4OH69XgpkCuXyxAdtzSKrBBkdLUWT9PH_I25cuKPPCvYisXCo_G_5zZZy1ySUxV2iQIsbS1NCFThDOXYNBpDcsRYzbgPvC6PDbziWBsnqCcYIdD6/s1600/007.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoCkIyVxkqzexNPOAVpwjACXQ87niC4OH69XgpkCuXyxAdtzSKrBBkdLUWT9PH_I25cuKPPCvYisXCo_G_5zZZy1ySUxV2iQIsbS1NCFThDOXYNBpDcsRYzbgPvC6PDbziWBsnqCcYIdD6/s400/007.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5581842156825444930" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br />it has 6 pockets inside and this bag just seems to work.... I've never been able to get pockets organized and keep them that way. This one I can.The pockets are nice and big, I slip my hand in and feel what things are in there and then I just continue around the circle till I feel the right items. I use it as my take everywhere bag... on Sundays it gets turned into my Sunday-bag.<br />One pocket is designated to be the snack pocket (always) with fruit snack and granola bars.... I always run into the problem of grumpy little girls, and this has helped SO MUCH.<br />A gal at church had these... she'd made them, I borrowed the pattern...

They were tasty. The BBQ sauce I used was a bit too tangy for my taste. As the coleslaw is quite tangy too... there was a bit too much tang :o)<br />But yummy all the same.<br />Here follow my recipes for those of you who might want to trey them out.<br />On the buns make sure they rise till they are really puffy, mine where a bit dense, because I didn't let them rise quite long enough.<br /></div><br /><h3>Hamburger buns - Caraway Rye </h3> <table border="0"

Arilyns Cake<div style="text-align: center;">So, I haven't been on here keeping you updated on what I'm up to.... staying busy that's for sure.<br /><br />I thought I'd post pictures of Arilyn's birthday cake and tell you how to make one if you DON'T have the fancy pan to make the dress :o)<br /><br />I used 3 cake mixes (she insisted on the strawberry one, even thought she doesn't like it)<br />I baked one in a 9x13'ish cake pan<br />One in a bunt pan<br />and the last one in a glass pyrex mixing bowl. (they can go in the oven) make sure that you think your ovenproof mixing bowl, well kinda fits on top of your bunt pan...... turn you bunt pan upside down and then you bowl and make sure it can "sit" on top of the bunt pan.<br />When you've baked and cooled all cakes (make sure you greased and floured your pans), you put the rectangular cake on the bottom, the bunt cake towards the one end (rounded side up) and the round cake from the bowl on top of that (round side up, and make a hole through the center of it). Make sure to frost between the layers.<br />These three cakes make the cake tall enough that you don't have to chop of any part of the barbie doll to make it fit.<br />Wrap plastic wrap around the legs of the barbie and set her in the cake. lift her arms out of the way and frost and decorate. <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaJxduOs0skWaNPfm_3CiDezB9riGwwSShpoZEvMN_V1PGWVpawb-HHZJj0DuIDnTxJfYTOLUvFh726hm7vgYD1DzxsJ98tb8WPFdswHvUl6HR77xhFEsEVEgDDz7Iu6kGBXenqvwafVAc/s1600/018.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaJxduOs0skWaNPfm_3CiDezB9riGwwSShpoZEvMN_V1PGWVpawb-HHZJj0DuIDnTxJfYTOLUvFh726hm7vgYD1DzxsJ98tb8WPFdswHvUl6HR77xhFEsEVEgDDz7Iu6kGBXenqvwafVAc/s320/018.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5530648222093342034" border="0" /></a><br /><br /></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3936369240079262098.post-54892854034424047542010-09-12T17:56:00.000-07:002010-09-12T18:17:45.176-07:00Nectarine Cake -sugar free<div style="text-align: center;">Here's the cake I made.

It's amazing how use we become to all the sweet stuff out there. When I had gotten use to the 'not-so-sweet' I started tasting the sweetness that was there.<br />Elm said that it wasn't sweet enough.... and then proceeded to eat 3 pieces of the cake.<br />I asked him, why he kept eating if he didn't think it was sweet enough... He said the cool whip was really good :o)<br />yes I used cool whip for topping instead of whip cream (as I have 10 things of free cool whip in the freezer and don't have any whipping cream)<br /><br />Here's the recipe:<br />Cake-<br />mix together<br />2 large eggs<br />3/4 C blended nectarines (recipe wanted peaches, but I didn't have any other than what I had canned, so nectarines it was)<br />1/3 C butter, softened<br />add and mix<br />1 C water (next time I'm going to use Welsh's new healthy harvest 'white grape, mango & orange' for a cake that is a bit sweeter)<br />mix together<br />2 1/3 C flour<br />1 tsp baking soda<br />2 tsp baking powder<br />2 tsp cinnamon<br />then add to the wet mixture and mix together<br /><br />*divide batter between two sprayed 9" round cake pans.<br /> * Bake @ 350F for 15-20 min until lightly browned, and knife comes out clean.<br />*cool on wire racks<br /><br />to prepare cake-<br />Put one layer on serving plate.<br />peel and slice 3-4 nectarines, place 1/2 on top of cake layer<br />put other cake on top and then the rest of the slices.<br />Top with whipped whip cream w. a bit of vanilla added<br /><br />I would put some cool whip on the first layer of cake as well as on top next time... to help glue it together.<br /><br />Had friends over Friday night when we ate the cake, Jaymi really liked it and wants the recipe :o)<br />I'll be make this cake again.<br /></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3936369240079262098.post-36560212170575154972010-09-10T15:28:00.000-07:002010-09-12T18:23:52.489-07:00Carob Chips Cookies -sugarfreeSo I am trying out some recipes in a book my friend Meleah gave me "Sweet and Sugarfree, An All-Natural Fruit-Sweetened Dessert Cookbook" by Karen E. Barkie.<br />When I tasted the first one, I thought that it didn't taste much like a cookie... you know having gotten use to the sweeter the better... so it's a bit of an adjustment. But after a couple, when you actually start stasting the cooking and not comparing to everything else, they are good.<br /><br />I did put chocolate chips in some of the dough (for the rest of the family, and do you think they are enthused? NOPE.. dang it all, less cookies for me)<br />And MY half has raisins in them to add some sweet. If I'd had carob chips, I would have tried them... but they aren't in my pantry just yet.<br /><br />Here's the recipe, it says it makes 36 cookies.. I got 24 <span style="font-size:78%;"> TINY</span> cookies out of it.<br /><br />1/4 C mashed banana<br />1/4 C vegetable oil (here in the US they usually use canola oil made from rapeseed =rasp olie for you in DK.<br />1 large egg<br />1 C flour<br />1 C rolled oats<br />3/4 C carob chips<br /><br />*mix bananas and oil, then add the egg.<br />*mix in flour and then oats<br />*stir in chips<br /><br />the 'batter' feels more like a dough<br />it says to drop by teaspoonfuls onto greased cookie sheet, and bake for 10 min at 350F, or untill just brown around the edges.<br /><br />Next time: I'd make them bigger, so I can actually sit down and eat a cookie, and not just pop a bite size one in my mouth.<br />And I want to try to find something else to add in. I was thinking abt chopped dates (nice and sweet) but couldn't find my bag when I started baking<br />They cookies are firm and kinda chewy... you get to chew them.<br /><br />I'll add pictures... when I find my camera (which will hopefully be before we eat the nectarine cake later)Unknownnoreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3936369240079262098.post-92055732746628564162010-08-30T09:25:00.000-07:002010-08-30T09:45:57.798-07:00A Cream Separator and Butter Churn<div style="text-align: center;">So why would we want to spend our tax return money on all these silly farm things?<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Well, Goats milk doesn't naturally separate, so to get the cream off the milk, it needs to be run through a separator.

My favorite to do is pinto beans. When I then want to make chili, it isn't a 2 day process like before.<br />And with fall coming fast this year, we need lots of beans for chili. The beans need to be "helped" out of the jars with a spoon. Yes some of them will break up. But they a fully cooked and soft and you won't ever have chewy beans again.<br />Canned Beans:<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">in the evening -</span><br />In cleaned quart jars, put about 1 1/2 C dry pinto beans.<br />Cover with cold water and let stand till the next morning.<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">in the morning-</span><br /> pour out the water<br />( I put a colander over the top of my jars, then flip it.<br />When all the water has run off, I flip it back)<br />fill with new water<br />wipe off the rimsand put on sterilized lids and rings<br /><br />set 7 quarts into the canner, add abt 3 qt. of water to it.<br />Close lid on canner, turn it on.<br />Make sure the weight is NOT on yet.<br />once steam comes out the top, let it went for 10 min, before putting on the weight.<br />then carefully watch the gauge.<br />here at my altitude of 23oo feet I would can at 13 lbs of pressure<br />(your booklet will tell you what to can at at your altitude)your have the burner on high until it reached the right lb mark on the gauge, then you turne the heat down until it stays at that spot. Once it stays put, you start your timer<br />90 min @ 13lbs of pressure<br /><br />of course, mine I couldn't get to stay at 13.... but it hung out happily at 14 1/2 lbs<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEta4KPRdfHs8n3-I40EblGKfUk2y8yWa9jYQ5tDWNZZZP66UBrZ7i7x7qzwfHTJw62vbH6e-EQMtK3v0TxCg9YHoHvLCuOgVeNYJlpRNkz8AkomfQqMd6z77m52iHphuZ-u8IqtM_1dPY/s1600/103.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEta4KPRdfHs8n3-I40EblGKfUk2y8yWa9jYQ5tDWNZZZP66UBrZ7i7x7qzwfHTJw62vbH6e-EQMtK3v0TxCg9YHoHvLCuOgVeNYJlpRNkz8AkomfQqMd6z77m52iHphuZ-u8IqtM_1dPY/s320/103.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5511025482912593682" border="0" /></a>My canned beans, aren't they pretty?<br /><br /><br />Here's then the amazing Lion House Chili recipe.

It was a loaf of bread with little green specks in it.
