words of encouragement

December 11, 2007 By: amyswanderingcomment

I’ve got all of these thoughts swirling around in my head, but no time to blog. Thankfully, Tiany has given me permission to blog without obligation.

virtually friends

December 7, 2007 By: amyswandering8 Comments

My friend Kelli was blogging long before I was, and she was always talking about her bloggy friends. I wondered how in the world you make friends through the internet! Now I realize that you do it the same way you do IRL (In Real Life): you find people with similar interests & just start chatting :o)

Sweet & funny Rhen sent me this award.

I want to pass it along to:

My new internets pals Julie, SouthernGirlMusings, & Carrie (she’s on Rhen’s list so she gets it twice!). I don’t know these ladies very well (yet), but I enjoy their blogs & their sweet comments. I’m also sending it along to my IRL friends Jill, Kelli, Melanie, Tiersa, Shellie & Emme. Now maybe Tiersa & Emme will post something ;o)

I would also give this award to my sister Angela IF SHE WOULD EVER START A BLOG! She is creative, talented, and constantly showing me pics of her projects. Wouldn’t you like to be able to see them too?

wfmw – what do i fix?

December 5, 2007 By: amyswandering2 Comments

Today’s WFMW is “the What Do I Fix? Edition” We are sharing recipes that are simple to fix for those crazy days that sneak up on you. I’ve got a few that I fall back on when it gets hectic…..well, more hectic than usual, that is!

Cheesy Chicken
2 lb. boneless skinless chicken tenderloins
2 c. cheese crackers, crushed into fine crumbs (I use food processor)
1/2 c. butter, melted
1 t. garlic salt or powder
3-5 drops Tabasco sauce

Combine melted butter, garlic salt & Tabasco sauce. Dip chicken tenderloins in butter and roll in cheese cracker crumbs. Place on cookie sheet or shallow baking pan & drizzle any remaining butter over the top. Bake at 375 for
20-25 minutes.

Sausage Pie
I tried a Betty Crocker recipe years ago called Easy Cheeseburger Pie. We did not like it at all, but I modified that recipe to create this easy breakfast casserole. My kids were little bitty at the time and named it Sausage Pie.

1 pound hot breakfast sausage
1 c. baking mix (like Bisquick)
2 c. milk
4 eggs
1 ½ – 2 c. shredded cheddar cheese

Cook sausage until brown; drain & spread in greased 9×13 baking dish. Sprinkle with cheese. Mix together eggs, milk & baking mix. Pour evenly over sausage & cheese. Bake at 400 for 25 minutes.
Good served with fried potatoes.

Simple Salisbury Steak
1 egg
1/3 cup dry bread crumbs
1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted, divided
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1 pound lean ground beef
1/2 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms

In a bowl, combine the egg, bread crumbs, 1/4 cup soup and onion. Crumble the beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into six patties. In a large nonstick skillet, brown the patties on both sides; drain.
In a bowl, combine the milk, salt and remaining soup; stir in mushrooms. Pour over patties. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until meat is no longer pink.

Chocolate Oat Squares
I always have these ingredients on hand, so this is the recipe I pull out when I remember at the last minute that I’m supposed to take a dessert somewhere. Everyone loves them!

1 ½ c. flour (I use whole wheat)
1 ½ c. old-fashioned rolled oats
1 c. firmly packed light brown sugar
½ t. baking soda
½ t. salt
¾ c. butter (1 ½ sticks), melted
1 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350. Grease a 9×13 pan. Mix together flour, oats, brown sugar, baking soda & salt. Pour melted butter over flour mixture; stir until well combined. Spread into pan. Pat into an even layer. Bake until lightly browned, 15 minutes. Remove from oven & immediately sprinkle chocolate chips evenly over bars. Let sit for about 5 minutes & then spread melted chocolate. Cool completely before cutting.

Run on over to Rocks In My Dryer for some great recipes.
