Technology Woes

So, I was looking forward to posting some pictures from the weekend. But they're all gone?! I have no idea where they went. Sometimes technology drives me crazy.

We had a great Saturday and Sunday filled with Christmas shopping, relaxation, and our friends annual holiday party with lots of delicious food! Mark and I made a cheesy potato casserole, which is a dish I grew up eating at nearly all of our family gatherings (yes, people LOVE it that much).

Here's the recipe (thanks, Dad!):

2lbs. frozen shredded hash browns
1pt. sour cream
8oz. cheddar cheese – shredded
1 cup chopped onions
1 can cream of chicken soup
1tsp. salt
¼ tsp. pepper
½ cup margarine
1 cup crushed cornflakes

Mix everything except cornflakes – place in greased 
9 x 13 dish. Top dish with cornflakes. Pour over ¼ cup
Melted margarine. Bake at 350 for one hour.

 I always use low fat or fat free sour cream and reduced fat cream of chicken soup. I suppose you could use reduced fat cheese too, but I don't like to take all the fun out of it ;) I promise you that this dish does not disappoint. You will definitely go back for seconds (...or more)!

Headboard Pics!

Finally! The headboard is finished. Well, at least, I am finished with it. It's not perfect, but over all I'm satisfied with the results.

In case anyone is wondering it took about 6 hours total to complete. If you're not DIY-challenged like myself, it could take substantially less time.

(Excuse the hastily made bed)

I hope everyone has a fab weekend! We're starting off the day with a nice walk to Brittlebank Bank Park, so the pooch can go for a little swim. And then perhaps some pool time this afternoon. This lady needs a tan (other than that which comes from a bottle)!
