Home Is My Paradise: April 2010
http://homeismyparadise.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Home Is My Paradise. Monday, April 26, 2010. Stuffed Shells (High Tech Style). Confession: After seven years, I finally figured out what some of the buttons on my oven are for! When we got the stove, I really liked all of the features that it had to offer. But somewhere along the way I got overwhelmed with other things and forgot all about them. Why hadn't I thought of this before? I adapted this recipe. They soak in the pasta sauce overnight and soften enough to be perfectly cooked after 40 minutes in t...

Home Is My Paradise. Tuesday, September 29, 2009. Yesterday was the one year anniversary of Dennis' passing. Dennis was my father in law.

He was a husband to his wife Mollie of over 30 years, father to Barrett, and grandfather to Madeline and Brady. Monday, September 28, 2009. Welcome back to Monday everybody. Tonight we're having Belgian. 1 c white flour. Combine f...

Home Is My Paradise. Tuesday, March 30, 2010. Menu Plan for Week of 03/28/10. Here's our menu for this week.

With broccoli and egg noodles. My conclusi...

http://homeismyparadise.blogspot.com/2010/03/tuna-melts.html
Home Is My Paradise. Wednesday, March 17, 2010. Just when activities seemed to be winding down, I went and signed the kids up for more. Brady will be starting his second round of swimming lessons and Madeline will be starting guitar lessons. To top it off, Madeline's t-ball season starts soon with Barrett as her coach. This translates to fast dinners that can be made mostly ahead of time. Photo courtesy of allrecipes. 2 cans tuna , drained. 1/4 cup finely chopped celery. 1 tablespoon chopped parsley.

Home Is My Paradise: Weekly Menu Plan - Week of 3/21/10
http://homeismyparadise.blogspot.com/2010/03/weekly-menu-plan-week-of-32110.html
Home Is My Paradise. Monday, March 22, 2010. Weekly Menu Plan - Week of 3/21/10. I've been a longtime blog lurker. I lurked long before I ventured into composing any posts of my own. When I first saw women posting their weekly menus, I didn't get it. Do I really care what they're eating? My conclusion is - yes, I do care. Not because I want to make sure that they are following the food pyramid or getting their five a day, but because their meal plans help me to break out of my rut. And sometimes we stop ...
