Words to Live By
2 Timothy 1:7
For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.

Books We Enjoyed Today
I read the first three books with Michael, Calla and Gage at storytime this morning. The next two I read with CJ at bedtime this evening, and the last one I am reading myself.
In the Kitchen
Amanda got the chili for dinner started in the crockpot this morning and then finished baking cookies with the last of the cookie dough from yesterday. Michael helped me make lunch by putting the meatballs and the sauce in a pan to heat for spaghetti.
I tried a new cornbread recipe to have with our chili this evening but it totally flopped. I had a favorite cornbread recipe I would usually make when we had chili, but the site it was on took it down so I've been on a hunt for another I like as well. I haven't found one yet so the search continues.
We Are Going
Austin, Amanda, and Michael went to practice for the Christmas play this evening. They've been working hard on this and are excited.

No Ordinary Blog Hop,
Corn bread and chili are like peanut butter and jelly. You just cant have one without the other. :) I have a recipe I have used for 17 years now. I figure why change? It has a lot of sugar in it, but we like it that way. I use the Alber's Corn Meal Recipe. Maybe you could remember some of the basics. Sometimes I find that if I have made it enough, I actually can remember most with accuracy.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun glimpse into everyday life there : )
ReplyDeleteThe last time I made cornbread I screwed it up too. No clue why. It was too heavy. SO I went and bought a Jiffy mix for the next time, lol! :
