Baking Bacon - the easy way to cook bacon

 Beautiful Bacon, done the bak'in way.  I just tried this yesterday, and I love it.  I also reheated a piece in the microwave and it was good!  I plan on making twice baked potatoes today, and wanted to have some of this for the topping.

Start with a cold oven.  Spray baking pan with non stick spray, or if you choose to use a wire rack atop your pan, spray that.  Place baking strips on pan and place in oven.  Turn on to 400 degrees F and bake for 14-16 minutes.  Keep an eye on it towards the end.  Once cooked, take off pan immediately and place on paper towel.  If you leave them on the pan they could overcook. 

Now enjoy bacon anytime of the day!

Kid's R Smart

Our daughter's new hiding spot for her books...right in the couch.  So just in case I'm sitting down, she can also plop down and hand me a book to read to her.  What a smart kid.  

What smart thing does your kid do?

Gifting Cookies + Dinner

 St Paddy's Day is coming up and this could be a sweet way to give the gift of cookies.

 For Valentine's Day, I made Snicker doodles and put them in this cute pack for my husband. 

 I used wax paper and fabric.  I cut the wax paper to the size I wanted with my pinking shears.  I then did the same with my fabric, just a shorter version so it would slip over top of the paper, and add some flair.

 I sewed up each side and put one inside the other.  Really fun and fast.  I believe the blog Skip to my Lou gave me the idea for the wax paper.


So what's for dinner tonight?  
We're having:
Baked Chicken, sliced over top the Pasta
Monterrey Jack Cheese Pasta (I'm using a recipe similar to this)
French Bread, sliced, buttered, and broiled
Roasted Carrots
