Martha Contest!

Have you all heard about the Martha Stewart Blog contest???

I have been a HUGE fan of Miss Martha for a VERY long time now! I remember seeing her on the Oprah show when she first started out!! I have learned so much from her over the years, with the most recent being that I overcook my cabbage for stuffed cabbage!! LOL!!

It's wonderful now that my little girl is in school....I get to watch Martha almost everyday now!! Whoo hooo!!

I also have a ton of her recipes with a few of them being used regularly!

Since I live in an area with some of the BEST peaches in the world, you can bet that her Cup O' Cobbler recipie is used a few times a year!! I don't make it in individual cups though....I usually just throw it all in a 9x11 pan!

Another one that gets used a few times a year is her Cranberry Glazed Turkey recipe! Again, I've had to make some changes to suit my family....such being that no one in my house likes cranberries but me!!! But I still follow the recipe by basting the turkey in wine and butter!! YUMMMMY!!!

OK, now I'm hungry! LOL!!

Tagged

I've been following this fun tagging game all around the crochet blog world. I've learned a lot about a bunch of different people that I admire!! So, since Kim couldn't think of anyone to tag....I tagged myself for her, LOL!!

What was I doing ten years ago?

I was married to my ex-husband, broke, and mountain-biking A LOT! Not to mention hating every minute of it! He was really into all the mountain biking....and spending all my money that I was making working for the post office...and like the good wife, I just went along with it! GGrrrrrr!!!
