Tonight I felt like spaghetti! I have noodles and an abundance of canned tomato products ie: tomato paste, canned organic diced tomatoes, tomato tomato tomato....
I did not have any spaghetti sauce though.
So.... what did I do? I thought to myself, you should make some! So I opened the cupboards and looked around. Then I called my mom. "Hey mom can I make spaghetti sauce from canned tomatoes and canned tomato paste?" "Yep, just throw the tomatoes on the stove and add some spices like Italian seasoning or basil. Tadaaa!" Well the conversation went something like that. So I hung up and got to work.
Here's what I used:
1 pot of boiling water (for the noodles)
2 cans diced organic tomatoes
1 can (you know, the little ones) organic tomato paste
2 heaping tablespoons of minced Polaner garlic (i keep a big ole jar in the fridge, I don't use fresh garlic fast enough)
1 zuchinni cut lengthwise in to quarters then sliced to about 1/4" pieces
1 tablespoon trader joes 21 seasoning salute
I combined all ingredients in to a sauce pan and brought to a boil, then I reduced heat to medium low. Covered and simmered while I cooked the noodles for 13 minutes. And tadaa! it was super delish! Serve immediately and salt and pepper to taste! Nummy.
In the midst of writing this blog I was summoned to the bathroom for an emergency toothbrush rescue. Aurora had dropped her toothbrush down the drain... I was stumped for about 30 seconds on how to get it out. I got the tool kit and used the tape measure end and a screw driver to retrieve it. The result was one really dirty hello kitty toothbrush from the drain and in to the garbage. YUCK. The bristles were black from rubbing the drain on the way up and out, Super gross!

Am I the only one?
Any other friends out there blog? I know Erin Corcoran does but for some reason there is no way to subscribe to her blog on her page.
** HEY Erin, how's a girl supposed to subscribe to your blog if there isn't a subscribe button? **
So the past couple days have been a hustle and bustle of dealings with the post office and printers. Who knew printers could be such a pivotal device in life. Haha. The post office is awesome though. Helpful.
I got to speak with a really awesome woman today. She is a friend of mine and she's going through a difficult time in her life. Please be praying for her and her grandson who she is in the process of adopting. Her name is Stephanie and her grandson's name is Elijah. She's an encourager in my life, and such a blessing.
Last night I made Rhubarb Apple Crisp.
Here's what I did, it's all an estimation because I just dumped stuff in to a bowl and went at it.\
For the Filling:
3 large tart apples, peeled and sliced to about 1/8 inch
1/2 cup rhubarb (I was super lucky to score some rhubarb from my aforementioned friend's mother's garden at her house on Bainbridge Island, I had previously cut it to about 1/3" pieces and froze it.)
1/3 cup sugar
1 Tablespoon cinnamon
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Place filling in an 8x8 glass baking dish.
For the Crisp Topping:
(these are approximate amounts)
1/3 cup butter, melted
3/4 cup oats, old fashioned or quick cook which ever you prefer, I used quick cooking since I only had those on hand
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Mix thoroughly together and spread somewhat evenly over the apples and rhubarb mixure.
Bake for 20 minutes, then test apples if still too firm when poked with a fork bake for an additional 10-15 minutes.
Serve warm alone or topped with ice cream or whipped cream.
Super delish!
On a side note, one of these days I will make a sour cream apple pie. And we can all thank Tracy Little for introducing that pie to me. As far as apple pies go, this one can not be beaten!
I still haven't found my digital camera and am getting worried that it is no longer in my possesion. :(
That's it for now!

Pickles, the ground is hard!
So, I got a bright idea, I think the farmers markets will still have cukes next month *cross your fingers* I know I am crossing mine. I am going to venture in to making my Grandma's Bread and butter pickles. Yes. I can't wait. Perhaps, I will gift jars for Christmas. Gift Pickles you say? Yes indeed the best present ever! They're so yummy, I remember having them with EVERY meal at my grandma Pratt's house. I am so excited. I have several cleaned out mason jars in assorted sizes. I just need lids and cukes and cider vinegar. ZOMG I'm stoked. I haven't had these pickles in years. My Grandma passed several years ago when I was in college. I can't wait to make these pickles of my past a present reality.
My Auntie Dee had the recipe and here it is, anyone brave enough to try it with me?
Grandma Pratt's Bread and Butter Pickles
About 25 Med cucumbers sliced
6 med onions sliced
1/2 cup corse salt
5 cups cider vinegar
5 cups white sugar
2 TBL. Mustard Seed
2 TBL Celery Seed
2 tsp tumeric
1/2 tsp Ground Cloves
Combine cukes, onions & salt in a big kettle. Stir so salt gets mixed well with the cukes & onions. Let stand for 3 hours.
Drain well.
Combine the rest of the ingredients in a large kettle & bring to a boil.
Add drained cukes & onions & heat to just about boiling.
Pack into clean hot pint jars, leaving about 1/8 inch head space.
Seal right away. Turning lids tight.
For the hot jars, I fill the first one up with hot wat
er, then pour it into the second jar & so on.
This makes about 6 pints
On a family note, today we visited PSCC. It was a good message on Marked. I will be visiting again next week.
On a walk a little while ago, Aurora tripped. She cried for a moment and then she got up. I said are you ok? She told me that the ground shouldn't be so hard and it needs to be soft. I asked her if she wanted me to make it soft. She said no, Jesus will make it soft. That's the mind of a precocious three year old for you.
Oh and Grandma Pratt, I miss you and love you!

Dinner and well.... BREAKFAST for dinner!
So tonight I thought I would share with you my cuisine for dinner at the Bronson's tonight.
We're having Chicken Tenders Broccoli and Sweet Potato Fries.
Ingredients:
Chicken Tenders: I use Foster Farms that come in a 6 pack from Costco. There were several in one package.
Fresh Broccoli Florette's (I suppose you could use frozen if necessary.)
Vegetable Broth: I suppose you could use chicken broth; however I think vegetable broth brings delish flavors to a meal and I think chicken broth is too strong of a flavor.
2 Large sweet Potatoes
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Salt
Pepper
Instructions:
In a small skillet add about 2 Tablespoon EVOO.
Add Chicken Tenders and brown, don't worry about cooking through.
In a small glass baking dish add broccoli florettes to the bottom, add 1/2 cup vegetable broth.
When chicken tenders are browned on each side place on top of broccoli florettes in a single layer.
Salt and Pepper to taste.
Place in a 400 degree oven for about 25 minutes.
While chicken and broccoli are cooking, add a generous about of olive oil (or any cooking oil) to a skillet. Heat on medium.
Peel sweet potatoes and slice to desired width.
Add potatoes to the oil in a single layer, cook till browned. Strain and place on a paper towel to collect oil.
Salt if desired.
Feeds about 3-4 people.
Can serve with an array of dips: ranch, bbq sauce, mayo, ketchup, etc...
Now on to BREAKFAST FOR DINNER.... duun dun dunnnnn.
I thought I would share a family favorite:
BISCUITS AND GRAVY.
Well, I will share the gravy part right now, I will get to biscuits at a later date.
Ingredients:
1/2 Roll of Jimmy Dean Maple Sausage, or favorite tube of sausage.
1/2 Gallon of milk (any type would work, I have used whole skim 2 and 1 before)
3 Tablespoons flour
1Tablespoon Pepper
Salt to taste
Instructions:
In large, deep skillet (preferably cast-iron) brown sausage over medium heat. Stir and crumble frequently to ensure proper browning all throughout.
When sausage is browned, push sausage to the perimeter and add flour, whisk in with the oil that has come from the sausage. If there is little oil bring in the meat and mix together for a while. If there is not enough oil to thoroughly wet the flour you may add some cooking oil, go SLOW and easy though if you do this. Add pepper
Once flour and pepper are fully incorporated SLOWLY add the milk. At first add just enough to cover the bottom of the pan, once thickened slowly add more. Just keep going till it all gets incorporated. When all the milk is in, turn heat down to low or medium low and simmer til you reach desired consistency.
Serve immediately over fresh biscuits, toast, bread, or any breakfast food. You'll love this recipe. My mom made this for me often when I was younger and it's still as delish today. One of those comfort foods. No good breakfast for dinner should be without this delish gravy.
Tip: You can cook the entire tube of sausage at once and when it is all browned you can reserve half for a future batch and freeze. Or you could use it to make maple sausage scones: Recipe to follow.
Plus extra gravy can be stored in an air tight container for several days, just reheat over low or in the microwave.
Maple Sausage Scones
(http://www.recycledlovelies.com/2009/02/05/maple-sausage-scone-recipe/)
I use Jimmy Dean's Maple Sausage and generally keep crumbles in the freezer to have on hand for these scones. I keep the crumbles frozen and bash them a little bit with a heavy cup or cutting board to break up. They help with keeping everything cold: the colder the dough stays the flakier they are, I think due to the cold "pockets of butter".
I use a fork instead of a pastry blender. The fork works JUST fine.
Please PLEASE please use REAL Maple Syrup, steer clear of Aunt Jemima and Log Cabin etc... those are impostors. Nothing is like REAL MAPLE SYRUP. I know it's expensive, but it's really flavorful and you don't need to use much, not even on pancakes, unless you're a pancake soaker (gross, I can't stand soggy bread products). It will keep for quite a while in your refridgerator. (unrefrigerated, it can get moldy <--- happened to me), and there are a variety of grades. You can find one that suits your taste. There are even some that are mixed with Agave Syrup. Just sayin'. The real good stuff is out there. (Trader Joe's has relatively inexpensive pure maple syrup)
On a family note, Morrigan was super de duper cute this afternoon, she woke up from her nap before Aurora. I brought her out to the kitchen for a snack, when she was done she decided to walk back in to her room and smack Aurora on the face. I went to Morrigan and picked her up to leave the room and she started freaking out on me. She was mad at me from taking her from her sister. She didn't stop screaming til I sat with her on Aurora's bed and she kept hugging her sissy til she woke up. It was adorable. Those two are quite the cute pair!

Maple Sausage Scones
(http://www.recycledlovelies.com/2009/02/05/maple-sausage-scone-recipe/)
- 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
- 5 tablespoons sugar, plus 1 tablespoon for topping
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 6 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1/2 cup half-and-half
- 2 tablespoons Maple Syrup(plus more for tops)
- 2 breakfast sausage links with casings removed, cooked and crumbled.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a bowl, whisk together flour, 5 tablespoons sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or two knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in 1/2 cup half-and-half, 2 tablespoons maple syrup until just moistened. Gently fold in crumbled sausage.
- On a lightly floured surface, knead dough gently, 5 to 10 times. Pat into a 1-inch-thick round. Cut into 8 wedges; place on a baking sheet, 2 inches apart. Brush tops with remaining maple syrup. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack.

Tonight is no fun.
For it's housecleaning night. That is never fun in my book. I started with the girls' bedroom so they could go to bed while I rearrange the living room and do the rest. Do I move desk and computer to my bed room or do I leave them in the living room? I'm unsure. Today we walked in the rain, for the first 2 minutes Aurora was screaming at me because it was my fault that she didn't have an umbrella *end sarcasm*. Then she perked up and started catching drops on her tongue. It was fun, and it was rather warm. We were only out for about 10 minutes while it was raining before we got home.
Off to the least favorite domestic duties. I am pouting, yes.

A few things
I have purchased fabric to make Aurora and Morrigan semi-matching twin size quilts. The color scheme is turquoise and brown. I haven't got a backing solid color yet, I'm thinking I will go with a chocolate brown though.
Another note, I have started adding recipes to allrecipes.com the link to my personal page is: http://allrecipes.com/Cook/13578105/Profile.aspx I highly encourage you all to try the chicken pot pie recipe. It was so scrumptious, even the left overs were gobbled up.
I am interested in recipes for scones, the requirement is that they must be moist! I just don't dig dry scones. Bring on the heavy cream and raspberries, I'm making scones on Saturday.
So as not to be rude, I might want to introduce myself and my family.
I am Rose. I love most things domestic. I was born to the delightful land of Michigan(yeah Yoopers!!!) and have, over the years with an army brat lifestyle, landed in Tacoma, Washington. I have been here for eight years and counting. I LOVE the moderate weather. I don't hate the rain. Occasionally it is inconvienent, but the general drizzle of the northwest does not keep me cowering indoors.
I have two fantastic daughters. Aurora June was born in November of 2006. Morrigan Celeste was born in April of 2009. They're both a blessing to me and I love them dearly. Names.... yes I know what most people say when I spell Morrigan for them. They're usually like WTF? Then usually they ask how it's pronounced. Well here's the story, browsing baby names I was looking at Morgan and got linked (you know when you travel from link to link from page to page) I came across Morrigan, and it is actually a female name and it generally means goddess of war. I decided upon it because Aurora generally means goddess of the dawn. I though, "How quaint, they sort of have a theme. June was my late grandmothers name and I thought it just kind of rings. Celeste means heavenly, and it just felt right for a middle name. They are the epitome of opposites. Aurora's looks favor me and Morrigan's looks are received generally from her dad's genes. Aurora is and always has been big, smart, and precocious for her age. Morrigan is small and more laid back. Yet there is nothing like the two of them together. Aurora adores and protects her little sister and shares her beloved toys with her. Morrigan smiled first at Aurora and laughed first to Aurora, she also loves her big sister (the little stinker hugs Aurora and kisses Aurora more than she does her mommy, hehe). They're the perfect pair.
We enjoy living in Tacoma. The girls love the zoo, where we are members and the parks in the city. Aurora just started Head Start 2 days ago and she was dying to ditch me the first day, even though I told her I had to be there because her teacher said I had to for the first day. Day two (today) she blatantly told me, "Mom, I'm not going to cry when you leave me!" She said this right before we walked on school grounds. Miss independent had a very great second day at school and didn't have any potty accidents like the first day (too much excitement). Today there was a Head Start BBQ we attended. After the full two hours and a Caspar Baby Pants (yes.... "Run Baby Run") concert where she proceeded to turn beet red and dripping with sweat from dancing, she screamed for 10 minutes walking out for "Ms. Krissy" because I was soooooooo horrible to her for forcing her to leave even though it was over and everyone else was going home too. A day in the life.... eh?
This is enough for now, it's beddy bye time for me. And here's hoping there is no more nightmare of a mysterious "fox with eyes" appearing in Aurora's bedroom tonight. Last night she made her way to my bed and proceeded to wake me up and tell me to roll over to watch her while she slept because there was a fox in her room. Hmmm.... Goodnight.
