Update


Lots has been happening in our little corner of the world.
Our family has welcomed a new pair of feet :) so things have been a little crazy here. Sleepless nights and hectics days are the norm these days, leaving little in the way of long hours in the kitchen.


LO has mostly been taking 45 minute naps so that makes things a bit hard, though this past week has been somewhat better. So on Sunday afternoon, after feeding him and entrusting him to DH, I decided to get in the kitchen and make some no knead bread - using my KitchenAid was out of the question as LO was napping.


What was initially going to be a quick in an out in the kitchen turned into a whole afternoon affair. I ended up making some crescents, an apple-pecan pie (I only had to supervise as this was my 11 year old's baby), sauteed some ground beef for tacos later in the week and assisted DH in making a double batch of meatballs to use with store-bough spaghetti sauce.


I now have a couple of almost-ready-to-serve meals. This should make for more relaxing suppers this coming week.


All in all, a very productive - albeit exhausting - Sunday that left the house smelling heavenly.


A couple of recipes to follow, hopefully soon.
