Weekly Christmas Update - 10/16/07

Posted in Christmas

Life has a way of interrupting the best laid plans, doesn't it?  Our washing machine is literally living out its last moments which has resulted in lots of our time over the last week being spent reading about various machines online, a trip to Sears to attempt to look at machines (mostly thwarted by an overzelaous salesperson bound and determined to sell us the machine she thought we should have),  and dealing with laundry woes that have cropped up.  So, my quilting efforts have suffered greatly over the last week and I'm not finished getting all the 6-inch squares quilted together for ds1's quilt.  I'm almost there, but not quite. 

 

As promised, here's another recipe that will be prepared in our home this year during the Christmas season.  There's nothing Christmas-y about it, but it's simple, fun, and will be a yummy and alternative treat to cookies, cakes, and candies.

 

Churros

 

4 T. organic butter

6 organic flour tortillas

2 T. organic evaporated cane juice crystals

1/4 tsp. organic ground cinnamon

 

Melt butter in a large baking dish in a 450 degree oven.  Place the tortillas in the baking dish (will overlap slightly), turning each one time to coat both sides evenly with the melted butter.  Combine the cane juice crystals and cinnamon; sprinkle evenly over the tortillas.  Place the baking dish back in the oven and bake until tortillas are puffed and golden (6-7 minutes).

18 October 2007 - Washing machine woes

Posted by Amanda10Axelby
Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment. I love reading what people think. I found myself nodding in agreement when I read this post. I know just what you mean. Our washing machine actually died right in the middle of major renovations to our house. So not only did we not have a kitchen for many weeks, but we also didn't have a washing machine for about as many. And with 11 people in the house it was interesting to say the least. I spent time hand washing (I don't know how the pioneers did it everyday - I guess they wore one set of clothes for the week) and we traipsed across Canberra to visit a few of the laundromats. I was a very thankful person when my new machine finally came.
Have a lovely weekend.
Blessings,
Amanda Axelby
