Tasty Tuesday

Items I sent my Partner

I belong to the Facebook group SnailmailersRus.  Love this very active group!  I especially enjoy doing the recipe tags.  This is the items I am sending my Partner Marcia.  As you can tell I am enclosing some Watermelon seeds.  Am sure your wondering why I enclose the watermelon seeds.  The reason is because Rush Springs is known as The Watermelon Capital of the World.  
So when sending out my recipes I try to enclose at least one watermelon recipe as well.  Just adding a little touch is how I like to row.  If I have time I always enjoy decorating my envelope as well.  I am all about happy mail.
So if you enjoy pen pals you should hope over to the Facebook group and check us out.  You will not be disappointed.   The admins for the group stay on top of everything.  They do one heck of a job with 4k in the group.

Egg & Hashbrown casserole

A perfect Sunday morning.  Am cooking a egg and hash brown casserole.  It is very easy to make with ingredients you should have on hand.  As many of you know I’m all about casseroles.  So this recipe is perfect for my family.

Egg and Hash Brown Casserole

Prep time   15 minutes
Cook time  45 minutes
Total time   1 hour

Ingredients
     1/2 lb breakfast sausage (or you can use a combination of ham, bacon and breakfast sausage).

      Chopped veggies (optional) I used onion and green peppers.

       12 eggs ( today I only had 6 eggs)  so went with what I had.

        1 cup Milk
       
        1 package of frozen hash browns.

        1 cup cheddar cheese (shredded). Sometimes I use Mexican cheese.

        Salt and pepper to taste

Directions
     
       Brown breakfast sausage.  
       In a bowl, beat eggs and milk.  Stir in all other ingredients.  Put in a greased
        9x13 pan and bake at 350 for 45~55 minutes or until well set.  Make sure the middle
        of casserole is done.  Serve topped with Salsa and addition cheese.



This makes leftovers at my house.  Which is always a bonus.  I’m always looking for easy and quick
recipes.   Some are hits and others are misses.  This one is always a hit.

Thank you for stopping by my blog.  I really appreciate you taking time to check me out.

                                                                  Grannie Karen and Kara
                                                                    Kara and me

Tammy, Dana and Becky hosted Kara's baby shower. They did an awesome job for sure!! Tammy always goes the extra mile when she hosts party's.  What  I do know is that I am going to ask for her help when ever the need happens for us! 

The car racing theme was awesome as it defines Kara and Dylan's free time.  Perfect for the co-ed baby shower. Plus daddy to be has his race cars he drives.  If you don't know our family is huge into racing!!

Visited for nearly 3 hours before I went home.  Was nice to catch up with family and friends.  I really need to make more of a effort to visit with family more.

Can't wait till May when baby Laiklyn arrives!! You know this baby is going to be well loved!!

                                                                   Kara's Baby shower



Gifts I brought to shower

                                                                        Kara and Dylan
                                                                                       I had a great time at Kara and Dylan's Baby shower!  Lots of family showed up for the event.  Am so excited for Kara and Dylan as they enter into a new chapter in their lives. Baby Laiklyn is going to be loved and spoiled.  I spent about 3 hours at the party having a wonderful time.  Tammy Deal my cousin always does a great job at hosting.  As far as I am concerned she is the hostess of the decade!  She hits it out of the park every single time! 

The theme was car racing. Tammy and Dana put a lot of work into the perfect presentation for this shower.  Am so going to ask Tammy for help when I finally have a grandchild.  Now if only May would hurry up and get here so we can see baby Laiklyn!!!
