Remember all that rosemary dough from this weekend? Tonight I made some into crust for a couple of delicious pizzas.

Painting

That's right, we've been painting! Well I've been painting. The Mr. Helped out with the tape where I couldn't reach.
I get very excited to do projects on the weekends and forget that he needs a break sometimes. Last week he was especially busy so I'm very grateful he helped me today. There are times I ask for help just for the sake of doing something together, and times when I just want to avoid a task (I hate washing dishes!). But this was one project I really could not have done with out my favorite fella's help because I am just too short. I hope that sugar cookies were a good "thank you!"

Sunday Night Baking

Tonight we've been baking up a storm! I found a recipe for Chai Spiced Sugar Cookies on Thurday that I've been dying to try ever since. Tonight I finally got around to making them and they are as yummy as I'd hoped!

Pork Chops With Caramelized Onion and Apples

This is one of my favorite dinners especially on a chilly night. It's not a heavy meal but the smells of the onion, apple and rosemary  cooking together warm up the whole house!

I originally found this recipe in an issue of Cooking with Paula Deen but over time I've tweaked it a bit.

New House Part 1

Here's the first little taste of our new house. We've been pretty busy lately so we haven't really finished unpacking so I'll be revealing it a bit at a time.

New Year, New Home!

We have moved! I'm so excited about our new place. It's bigger, quieter & in a better location. & best of all I have a little bit of a yard and a porch to do a bit of gardening. I'm looking up seeds but since it's still winter I'm mostly focusing on making the inside of my house look nice. We'll have plenty of garden posts starting in the spring! My New Year's resolution is to try to post more often even though I'm working now which keeps me pretty busy. Pictures of the new place soon!
