So I'm finally going to post a productive blog. I know, I know, it's very exciting. Don't get too excited now. My whole basis behind starting this blog, was to share delicious recipes I find, and to post all the really awesome things I crochet (toot! toot!). And while I've shared a few recipes, and said a few funny things, I haven't really done anything. So sit back, relax, have a sip of root beer, and just laugh at my rhetoric, and then leave an comment!
Seriously. Leave a comment. I think maybe 5 people have commented on my blog, and my husband does not count. I'm a little ashamed of you. Okay not really, but I thought there'd be a bit better feedback!
Anyways let us commence with the opening ceremonies.
This week has been a very productive week for my crochet, I've completed 3 projects, started a fourth, and I have about a half dozen orders on the books to complete before Halloween. Woohoo!
I apologize for my lackluster photography skills. Amelia broke my camera lens, and until I can either get it fixed or replaced, then good ol' unreliable phone camera has got to do. And while I have the world's most adorable little girl, she is a terrible model when it comes to showcasing her hats.

A free high five to whoever can guess what this next one is
any body? It's not that hard....
did any one guess...
well good on ya! That boys and girls, is an Ewok. For those unfortunate souls who have never seen Star Wars, I insist you immediately locate all 6 episodes (movies) sit down and watch them back to back. From Episode I to Episode VI, when the Ewoks actually appear.
Who loves Star Wars? We love Star Wars.
Tra la la la la.
good song eh?
Okay so you may have noticed the lack of commentary tonight, however my back is killing me. I'm not sure what I did, but I bet it involved chasing a one year old around a pond and feeding ducks.
OH! Good story about the ducks. Okay so we're sitting there feeding the duckies with our good pals, Tamra and Jax, and I noticed one of the ducks was missing a leg (darn those alligators!) Well I say to Tamra, get this, it's a real kicker, "We should call her Peg."
Ha ha ha. Get it? Because she only has one leg...
Anyways. I'm really tired. I think only my family gets to see this loopy, sleepy Becca.
It's recipe time! Peanut butter jelly time. Peanut butter jelly time. Where ya at? Where ya at?
So since Michael has started this really awesome poopy shift, I haven't really been in a good house wife kind of mood. So dinner isn't getting made, dishes aren't getting done, etc. etc. Hey, Amelia has a clean bum and full belly, that's a successful day. Well I started to make dinne last night. Decided I was exhausted, so I only made the rice. So this morning I'm trying to decided what to make with the rice, because let's face it, I had no idea what I was doing last night. I decided to make a chicken-broccoli-rice-awesome casserole. In the short three years of our marriage, I have successfully made approximately zero, zlich, nada, goose egg, good broccoli casseroles.
Well let me tell you something! This one is a winner. As is winner winner chicken dinner! Seriously. There was chicken in it. So thanks to my good friends at deepsouthdish.com (and google) I made this really scrumdiddlyumptious casserole this morning. I am quite pleased with myself. Yay for feeling domesticated!
