Homemaking Happenings...

Bri and I have been busy w/some Kitchen Kapers over the last few weeks...

Thought I'd share some the things we've been cookin' up...

Soup

We buy our eggs from the Amish...sometimes, you get one with a little feather on it. :)

Bri made these Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars

It's applesauce time around here! Yum!

After they are cooked, sugared, and cinnamon has been added...

I use my wonderful Vitamix to blend it smooth.

This is what it looks like in the Vitamix.

All done!

I made this Apple Crisp at the same time.

I made this bread when I made the oven fried chicken below

The potatoes that we mashed were from our garden! :)

As an aside...I just saw this picture of an adorable kitchen online...thought it was cute and am ending with that...

I love that red!

Happy Homemaking!
