Tasty Tuesday

Tasty Tuesday....better late than Never!!!


Deli Bread....




This is one of my family's favorites. This is the closest that you will get to a Muffalata, with out being one! I'm not the best judge of how much stuff on this one.

Pizza dough (I usually buy two of everything and make two)
Genoa Salami
Provolone cheese (sliced)
sliced ham (I usually buy a pound)
sliced turkey and
sliced green olives (drained well)I usually only buy one and spilt it in half between the two.



Roll out the pizza dough out with a rolling pin



then down the middle make one layer of ham, then add a layer of Genoa Salami, then provolone Cheese and then put a layer of olives, it's important that you put the olives on the cheese or the cheese on the olives so that when it melts it will help hold the olives in.

(sorry i forgot to take pictures...)

Then add the turkey, then wrap the sides around to wear it looks like a loaf.

take an egg beat it add a little water and then spread it over the loaf with a pastry brush....




put in the oven at 400*bake 25- 30 minutes or until golden brown.

Hope you enjoy.... If I make it tomorrow I'll take more pictures....

Update.....

Thanks everyone who said a prayer. It was not pink eye, the pediatrician seems to think that she got something in her eye yesterday and that it was irritating it and maybe starting to get infected. They looked much better this afternoon, and no longer has any gunk coming from it. He started her on some eye drop antibiotics....

Prayer request....

Greetings faithful followers,
Amelia, we think, has pink eye. I am taking her today to the pediatrician to get it check out. I know that pink eye is not really a big thing, but when you get one thing it can sometimes lead to more as this may mean a dip in her immune system, something we really don't want. We want her to stay as 'healthy" as possible!
It just started late yesterday afternoon, she had been complaining about it itching, at first we thought she might have gotten something in it. We had taken them to Global Wildlife yesterday ( pictures and trip summary to follow later) and it was windy and the dust was flying. Later though it was starting to ooze gunk from it.....

My biggest fear is that it will cause her to catch more things and I really don't want that to happen to her, she has been doing really well and not getting sick very much, she has barely missed much school, a great accomplishment considering!!!
I'll let you know later what the doctor said, Thank you in advance for all of you prayers and thoughts.....
Blessings,

CELEBRATION.....

Today we celebrate 16 years of wedded bliss!!!

Yes, I still married him even after the preacher asked him "do you take this woman" did he proceeded to take out a fifty cent piece and toss the coin in the air....thankfully it landed on heads, we never discussed what would have happened if it would have been tails........



We've had ups and downs, good times and bad ones too, but through it all we have remained true....


I love you more today than I did 16 years ago and can only imagine our love growing deeper and stronger with each day and year that passes.

Here we are 16 years ago.... Oh what I wouldn't do to look like that again......




here we are a few years later....(quite a few)



and here we are now.....

and here is what we created together......

and one little angel in heaven...Seth.

love,

your loving wife...

Tasty Tuseday....on Wednesday

Ok, So, Saturday night was Margarita night again....we had 4 birthday's to celebrate. Tyren's was one of them. so I decided to make a cake for them all. Know mind you it was not anything fancy looking.....but inside....oh my gosh it was Delicious! I tried to get fancy on the inside of the cake. I had been watching Food Networks cake challenge and thought I was tired of the same old white (almond cake). So I looked up chocolate ganache, thought hmmm that was pretty easy make so I gave it a try........I needed, heavy whipping cream and some chocolate chips and a stick of butter, here I was using the white chocolate chips as I made two types of ganache.

heat the butter and the whipping cream to just before it begins to boil....

then add it to the chocolate chips....

Stir till creamy

let it cool and layer between the cakes. I used chocolate and almond cakes and made 4 layers.Here is a picture of the finished cake....

And the inside...oh my gosh, this was yummy.......

gotta go I'm still feeling real bad so, I'm going to bed......

I know I said I would update about the tasty cake that I made and post the recipe yesterday, but for two days I haven't really felt well, headache and upset tummy, right now it's time to go get kiddos off the bus. So when I get them settled and home work done, I'll be back.......

My Little Girl...I'm so proud

Yep, there isn't anything that she can't do....

today she learned how to ....(drum roll please...)



TYE HER SHOES!!!!!!



I'm so very upset that I can't get the stupid video to upload :(



But none the less she is so very proud of herself and so are the rest of her family, we knew she could do it!!!

As soon as she came home today it was..."hey mom....I got some good news."

"oh yeah." I said. The smile on her face said it all.

Oh I also wanted to thank everyone for your continued prayers for Marshall, he is slowly getting better, we had to take a trip back to the pediatrician this afternoon as he developed a lump under his chin, the pediatrician said it was either a cyst starting, but I think they usually hurt and this doesn't hurt that bad. He seemed to think that it was a swollen gland, but seeing that the allergist just started him on ceftin Thursday, he really didn't see the need to change or add another antibiotic, so if the lump is there when he finishes the antibiotic we are to return to him and let him check it out again....please say a prayer for him that he get better especially before the 22nd of this month, as we are suppose to be going to Disney World that week!!
Well I sure hope that I can get the video up soon or at least some pictures of her step by step!!

And Since tomorrow is Tuesday, I hope to show you some pictures of a very tasty cake that I made over the week end for Ty's birthday.....
Till then,
Be Blessed,
