Checking in

 

I wanted to do a quick post for everybody so that way they could get a grip about what's going on in our house.  It has been so very cold here it's amazing how cold it has been in Pennsylvania is beautiful to look at butts so icy whenever you're outside.  We have had no snow this winter it's weird to think that we live in Pennsylvania yet we have no snow my parents in Pittsburgh however are definitely getting their fair share of snow this year.

As for any prepping we are off the bandwagon at the moment.  We just been so busy thinking about everything for the new baby getting new crib sheets new new fabric to make new cloth diapers for my older son, which he has grown out of his old ones.  So we need to make more.  I'll be posting that pattern online later.

We have been mostly healthy through this you're even though we've had a couple of sickness.  A touch of a cold virus and a little bit of a stomach upset but we've been pretty good otherwise.  We are having a wonderful time staying healthy eating garlic in honey, two things to help boost our immune.

My pregnancy is going great we're getting really really excited only 5 more months to go!  Halfway done! Our family is doing major research into homeschooling.  Not because we are we don't like the school system, we are in a great school system.  Perhaps our child is getting a bit lost in the shuffle of having so many kids in a class.

As of January first I officially turned off a whole 28 years old I have a absolutely wonderful husband who took me to Bangkok Balcony in Pittsburgh.  I had the pumpkin curry, it is amazing and I am in love with it recipe.  Today I'm going to share with you the recipe for pumpkin curry.  It's super easy to make mainly because we use pre-made curry sauce.  You need for this recipe is 1 half of a breast of chicken on 2 cups rice cooked and then also 1 acorn squash roasty acorn squash for 45 minutes to an hour in the oven on 350 degrees.  I like to grill the chicken in just a little bit of oil nothing.  for the curry I use Thai brand yellow curry.  I take the  and use about a 1/2 a jar.  I will add it to the chicken.  Once all the curry sauce is heated I will spoon out the acorn squash and add it to the chicken mixture. Just serve it over in a bowl with rice.  This takes me aboutt 45 minutes to make and is wonderful.

Another simple thing we learned to make was bacon wrapped dates.  These are a delicious thing to do and eat on a cold night as a snack.  Simple take a piece of bacon and cut it in half, roll around a date and place on a skewer.  I place 5 per skewer.  To cook, place in a deep roasting pan, lined in tinfoil, bake a t 370 for 20 - 30 minutes and done.  Easy and yummy.  I would like to thank my brother in law for introducing me to this while in Chicago for his wonderful wedding.
