Enjoying Life...

 

I'd love to think this could be me, but who am I kidding? In case you're curious, yesterday morning began with me in the kitchen making two dozen homemade stuffed oreos to take to the physical therapy staff. (They were a huge hit, too!)

When I opened the little fridge to put the dough in to chill for an hour, I saw the venison loin I put in there to thaw on Saturday...and completely forgot. Soooo, once the dough was in the fridge, I had at least an hour to deal with the venison.

I sliced it into medallions and then browned it with onions and placed them in jars. I didn't have time to run the canner before PT, but I wouldn't have lit up the canner for three pints. I put the lids and rings on them and put them in the fridge until I can properly can them after work today.

After PT, I ran to the grocery store. I needed a few things for something else I'm going to can so the pressure canner gets filled. I'll tell you about it tomorrow. 

Instead, I made a batch of cinnamon rolls last night. Two 2-packs are going to my coworkers, another 2-pack to Andy and Shelly, and a 2-pack for Handsome and me. It was a good day (and night).

I work until 4:30 today, and then I'm going to do my batch of canning. I can't wait to tell you what I'm making to fill up my pressure canner! See you tomorrow.

Oh, and maybe this image will be my life next year. For now, busy suits me just fine.

Happy Valentine's Day...

LilyLouTay Homemade Stuffed Oreos

I made Valentine cookies for Handsome yesterday, with enough extra to take to my coworkers last night. They were a first-time success, and I'll definitely make them again. 

Hannah Taylor is LilyLouTay, and if you've never watched one of her videos, it's really worth the time. Everything she makes is done with love (and a little humor), and whenever I've made one of her recipes, it's been delicious. Even just watching her cook is a delight. (She's also on Facebook and Instagram as lilyloutay)

HERE is the link for these fabulously decadent cookies - Hannah's Homemade Stuffed Oreos. Mine measure about 3" across, and they're large enough to share. I got messages from neighbors, Shelly (next door) and Dawn (up the road) who I also shared with and got messages that I'd ruined their dinners when they each had one after I left. 

I did double this recipe because I knew I wanted extras to give away. The doubled recipe made eighteen or twenty 3" sandwich cookies. I might try a single batch and make them smaller next time...or not. lol

Happy Valentine's Day, my friends
