Another busy day ahead with driving, cleaning and maybe even some scrapbooking. A lady in our church is having a contest to see who can fininsh the most pages in the month of Oct. She is a Creative Memories consultant and is giving a 12x12 album to the winner. So far I have finished 74 pages. I need to get stickers for our wedding album then I will have another 34. I would like to finish our honeymoon pictures but need paper and stickers for that yet. I have definitely lost a few hours of sleep. I usually go back to bed when LaVern goes to work and get another 2 hours of sleep. The great thing is I only need to finish our honeymoon and then I am totally caught up which has never happened yet in the 4 years I have been doing scrapping.
I tried a new twist to chicken and we loved it. I dunked t into butter then rolled into crushed Frosted Flakes and then fried on the stovetop until done. It is a bit of sweet with crunchy and ummmm.
We are having company on Thurs. evening so cleaning is on the list of must do.
Have a wonderful day in Jesus!

Good morning. Thought for the day: Be careful what words you speak, they last an eternity.
We have been very busy doing outside fall cleaning. I was also sick for a few days which means I did nothing for nearly a week.
This morning I made cinnamon rolls with a new recipie which I will add at the end. They are made the afternoon before then baked in the morning. The house smells so fresh and sweet!
I also have a recipie for a meat marinade. You can soak any meat and it is delicious. I have done turkey and roast and both were well liked by my family.
We have a dusting of snow on the ground and very cold. Winter seems to have come around early this year.
Here are the recipies:
Cinnamon rolls
Mix 1 T. yeast 1T. sugar 1 cup warm water and set aside
1 cup shortning 1T. salt 1 1/2cup sugar Beat together and add 4 eggs, beat again. Add 4 cupswar, water. Then add yeast mixture. Add enoughflour to make soft dough, let rise. Punch down every hour 3 to 4 times. Roll out,spread with butter, sugar and cinnamon. Roll up and cut, place in pans, let rise overnight. Bake next morning at 350 for 15 - 20 min.
I then made this frosting for the rolls.
1/2 cup butter 1 cup brown sugar Boil together for 2 min. stirring constantly. Then add 1/4 cup cream and bring to boil. Cool to lukewarm, then add 1 3/4 to 2 cups powdered sugar. If it gets to stiff add a little boiling water.
Marinade:
1 cup tenderquick
10 cups water
1 teas. salt peter
1 T liquid smoke
3 T brown sugar
Soak meat in refrigerator for 3 days then bake as usual.
Good luck to you who try these recipies. I like very simple and quick recipies as you might be able to see.

I've another new recipie to share. I revised it from the original and we gobbled it right up. Place large oven bag in 9x13 baking dish. Take 1 can chicken gravy (or make your own) and put in oven bag. Add 1-2 med potaotes, 1 small onion, 1/2# baby carrots, 2 stalks celery and arrange in bottom of bag. Place 4 chicken breasts on top (season to taste) and bake @ 350 for 40-45 min or till chicken is done. It is an easy one dish meal and yummy. Good luck.
