Do Something Special For My Family Day

Today we made a lot of things-I spend a lot of time helping others that I took today off to help show my family how much I love them:

Caleb and I

Made Peanut Butter Chip Peanut Butter Cookies-so very good!!

Greg said that it was the best he had ever tasted:)

Thumbs up for me-cuz this is the first time I ever made them:)

Boy Wonder....

He helped until he got bored...

I was on a roll so I also made homemade pretzel dough

 and homemade tortilla dough

of course you have to have meat for your tacos too:)

so I browned up a pound of ground beef

It was hot outside and very hot in my kitchen-but my family deserved this:)

And I couldn't find my soap to wash my dishes...then I opened up the cupboard.....duh!!!

Here is the Pretzels all finished:

My family had a wonderful all homemade and homecooked meal-it was so nice:)

My total homemade list for the day is:

#1. One pound of ground beef made two crock pots full of yummy stuffing for my tacos

#2.  Crust for a chicken pot pie

#3.Pretzels for family

#4Iced Tea:) (The Good Kind-for those in the Cole Family)

#5. Dough for homemade tortillas

#6. Two batches of PB cookies

#7. Heart biscuits

#8.Two chicken breast for the ingredients inside the pot pie

#9 Four other chicken breast for a meal later on

#10Cornbread like Chi Chi's- I made up my own recipe for this one:)

(Dear Mom Cole-if you would like this recipe just send me an email and I will send it too you-since you like the Chi-Chi's cornbread so much:)

#11. Vegt to go with tonight's dinner

So all in all it has been a very productive made by me on Wednesday for my Wonderful Family.

So one pound of beef can go a long ways-you just have to know how to divide it up....I will probably get 6 meals to feed my family of 3 on from the taco stuffing:)

And 2 chicken breast will give us probably 4-5 meals.

We also have the 4 other chicken I cut up and put in the freezer-one of them will end up being soup-the others I am not sure-but I "rubber" chicken them all the time-you can feed your family well and with less-to help make your money go further.  Any questions? feel free to ask-if your interested in some recipes that I used I would be glad to share them-just leave a comment telling me what you would like:)
