My fur baby; adopted 11/25/2012! We've had him almost 6 months now and I am just nuts about him!!!

Yep. This about sums up my family! A couple days before the snow hit us last week we decided "to heck waiting for snow"!!! And went sledding anyway!!! That's just how we roll.

2012!

Okay, so I'm back at it again...reading, reading, reading! Well, in between working 2 jobs now and taking care of Dave & The Youngers that is!!! I'm busy and I'm tired and I can't wait for the Summer to get here. Definitely missing the beach!!! Ugh!!!

I more than made my goal for 2011 of 60 books. I finished 64!!! So this year my goal is 65 books!!! It's gonna be a lot harder to accomplish now that I have a lot less free time but I'm sure I'll be able to pull it off!

Zuppa Toscana

A gf from work gave me this recipe and I tell you now...IT IS AMAZING!!! It's a knock off of the Olive Garden soup Zuppa Toscana. It's super easy, quick, and only 5 ingredients!!!

1 lb. Italian sausage
4 cans (14 oz) chicken broth
8 small red potatoes, quartered and thinly sliced
1 envelope Italian salad dressing mix
2 cups fresh or frozen spinach

Brown sausage.

In separate pot combine broth, potatoes and salad dressing mix. Bring to a boil; cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until potatoes are tender.

Drain sausage. Add sausage and spinach to broth. Heat through and serve!

Summer Fun!!!

So here are some pictures taken over the summer.... Thought I'd share!!!

My sister made me a beautiful chocolate, hazelnut & strawberry birthday cake!!! YUMMMM!!!
