What's for Dinner?
Hybrid fajitas/tacos - tacos made with fajita seasoning. I used shaved beef for the meat. Hubby grilled an ear of sweet corn, Hatch chile, and sweet onion. I used that to make a relish by adding cilantro & lime juice. He also grilled the corn tortillas. Topped with crema agria, Colby cheese, and...- Babydoll

What's for Dinner?
Hubby wanted to re-create a childhood favorite, the Bean Burger from S.W. Tookie's in Seabrook, Texas. It traditionally had refried beans on top of a burger with crushed Fritos and Pace Picante to finish on top of it all. Ours started with a Brioche bun, a grilled 1/3 pound burger topped with...- Babydoll

What's For Breakfast...
I've been teaching Lily to cook while we are self-quarantining. Yesterday's lesson was blueberry scones that we enjoyed for breakfast. We talked about the science of baking: why our measurements need to be exact, order to mix ingredients, why we sift, the importance of not touching the butter...- Babydoll

All from scratch spaghetti and meatballs, and herbed focaccia bread (courtesy of my bread machine). This is how I do comfort food.- Babydoll

We are well. She is getting big! She stands just under my chin. But I am what Hubby calls "fun sized", like a little candy bar that is smaller than regular size. She is petite for fourth grade (just like her mama was). :) Her shoe size? 2.5. Her bestie? 8.5! (Are't they adorable together? Best...- Babydoll

Our Easter was very quiet. Just the three of us (Hubby, Lily, I). She still dressed up and did an indoor egg hunt. We greatly missed having Grammie & Papa (my parents) over to celebrate with us. Talking on the phone was not the same. We are living in such strange times.- Babydoll

First day of fourth grade! She is excited for the year ahead. Her school has orchestra/band for fourth graders. She has the opportunity to do safety patrol (help kids out of cars at drop off) once she turns 10 in February. They also have "peace coaches" who help other students solve minor...- Babydoll

Good eye! Yes, it is crochet. The green one took me about 48 hours to make. Time consuming, but worth it! I was also able to put one of my grannie's doilies on display (not judged). As far as I can tell, she made it around 1950. I received it when she passed several years ago. She is the one...- Babydoll

This year kicked my booty. With job seniority comes more responsibility, more challenges. There were many days I thought to myself "did that just happen?" I worked 1:1 with students with severe learning challenges (low IQ, Down Syndrome, ASD, etc.), and was able to keep them learning and making...- Babydoll
