good cookin'

did that title catch ya? OK, so I am not a huge poster anymore! sorry...too much going on I guess. Life is extremely busy. I will get to that in just a minute but right now you are wondering why that title, right?? well I have been in such a slump and not knowing what to cook for dinner anymore I am tired of the same old same old. I think my family is too! I headed to the library and picked up a few new cookbooks to see what I could find out there. Good food, fast food, and stuff that EVERYONE would like (we have a few picky eaters!!) Well, here is what I found
I must say that it is inexpensive as well. We have a big family and finding yummy meals that don't cost an arm and a leg is a good thing!

What is it I like best about these 30 minute meals?? I can hand the cookbook to one of the kids tell them to choose a recipe that appeals to them, we figure out what we need from the grocery store and it is their meal to make for dinner one night. I thin that counts for home schooling right? ;) Megan, Betsy and Abby have all had their hand in the pot and are enjoying cooking as much as I have. Phil is enjoying these new dinners that I would have never tried if I didn't check this book out from the library. Oh and by the way, I was singing the praises of this cookbook to a friend of mine (who has the book and I did not know!) well, she picked one up for me and now I have my very own copy of it!!

Well, that is it about cookbooks! Why did I share this you may be asking well, I will say it is because many people I know are looking for new and exciting recipes. So many of us are in a "rut". Now I think I may have gotten you out of it!! :) enjoy!!

As to what is going on here and why are we so busy. If you don't read our other blog. Wilson's to Guatemala on the sidebar. We are under contract with the house, we will close in the end of May, and we will be out shortly after that. God is so good! I can't wait to see what he has planned for us!

now, go check out this book and try some new meals!! :)
