DON'T BE A NEGATIVE NELLY!

Remember when you say something negative to someone it takes 10 positives to undo that one negative. Have you heard the sang, "You reap what you sew?" well if all you ever do is put out negativity that's all you'll ever get in return. "You get what you give." The more positive you are the more positive things will come to you in your life.

Check out a book I've been reading... It will do you good!
The Magic (it's part of The Secret series)

God Bless!

Crock Pot Enchiladas

As stated in another post... whatever interests me goes up in a post.
Here's an easy was to make enchilada in a crock pot...
What you need:
corn tortillas
shredded cheese
enchilada sauce
browned meat (I used turkey this time)

Layer the tortillas on the bottom of the crock pot. Add some of the sauce, meat, and cheese... repeat this process until all ingredients are gone... top with the remaining cheese.

Cook on high for 1-2 hours depending on your crock pot.

We like making this lasagna style because it's quick and easy. If you want to take the time and roll the tortillas with the meat on the inside, feel free. :)

MONSTER COOKIES RECIPE (it's a big one so feel free to cut it in half or in quarters)
1 Dozen Eggs
2 pounds brown sugar
4 Cups sugar
1 Tablespoon Vanilla
8 teaspoons baking soda
1 pound unsalted butter
3 pounds peanut butter
18 cups oatmeal
1 pound Chocolate Chips (butterscotch, white chocolate... also good)
1 pound M&Ms (plain or peanut or both)
Mix in order
Bake 350 for 10-12 minutes
Cool and enjoy!

If you make them really large like I do, baking time needs to be increase.
*Cookie dough will last in the fridge for at least 2 weeks.
I realize, after the fact, when I start making something I should take pictures along the way so all of you can follow my posts easier. I'm sorry for that. My main focus for this blog has change a lot since I first started doing it. It's a work in progress, as my interests change so does my blog. I'm an artist, homemaker, teacher, mother, business women... among many other things. When something hits me as interesting I'll probably post about it. When life gets too busy, which it usually does, I might not be posting often. That pretty much sums up things on this end! Happy creating!
