Thursday's projects

Breakfast: Fried Krispy Kremes! In case you haven't had the chance to try that, do. It's amazing; life-changing even. Of course if you've got hot Krispy Kremes eat them fresh, but if you've got some left over, there's no better way to use them than fried in a little butter. SOOOO good!

Lunch: Baked potatoes and sweet potatoes

Dinner: Lasagna and salad

Today's project was putting some lasagnas in the freezer. We have 3 in 9x13 foil pans in the freezer now! We used up one of those ginormous cans of tomato sauce too! Claire and I worked together to get them done quickly, and I think it only took us about 1.5hrs! I was rather proud of us. :)

This evening I made some of us salted caramel mocha lattes again. I had to make another batch of caramel sauce, so I snapped a picture and thought I'd share the recipe. We're going through that stuff really fast now that we've discovered homemade salted caramel mocha lattes!

  • 1/2 cup of butter
  • 1 cup of brown sugar
  • 2/3 cup of cream
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla
Melt the butter. Add the brown sugar until it's combined. Stir in the cream, again until combined. Stir in the vanilla.

It's really a fast recipe to make, which is another reason we've been making it so often.

Also today we got 25lbs of bacon added to the freezer stash! Thank you so much, Jacob, for picking it up for us! (That took $96 from the grocery money, bringing the total to $190.98.)
