I'M BACK!!!!

Ok so did ya' miss me? I'm sorry for my "extended" absence. With all the holiday stuff going on it was just impossible to keep up the blog. Well now that it's a new year I'm hoping to post more! And I got 3 new cookbooks for my birthday/Christmas so boy am I ready to cook (and share) all my recipes with you!

I collect cookbooks...seriously! I have probably 50 plus cookbooks and enjoy just looking at them on occasion. Yes I'm goofy like that...LOL! Nothing like torturing yourself by looking at all the yummy desserts/cakes/cookies/pies in your cookbooks when you're watching your weight. And no I don't lick the pages....ha!

Ok so back to what I came to post. I wanted to share my menu for the week with you. Yes I know it's already Wednesday but hey better late then never right! I hope to start taking pictures of all my dinners too (since I bought myself a new digital camera for Christmas). I hope to post daily but it might be more like every other day or so. So here's my menu:

Monday:

• Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins
• Scrambled Eggs

Tuesday:

• Quick Corn Chowder (new recipe)
• Quick Herb Bread (new recipe)

Wednesday:

• Cinnamon Pumpkin Pancakes
• Pork Sausage
• Eggs

Thursday:

• Ranch Turkey Pasta Dinner (new recipe)
• Bread & Butter

Friday:

• Homemade Pizza
• Carrots

Saturday:

• Pork Chop Potato Dinner (new recipe & slow cooker)
• Green beans
• Bread & Butter

Sunday:

• Leftovers

So there ya' have it. I spent just $65.00 on my menu this week (out of my $75.00). Of course it helps A LOT that we aren't drinking pop at our house anymore. Saves about $10.00 a week :)! Ok so in the next day or two I'll post my new recipes that I tried on Tuesday. So stay tune :)!!
