I haven’t been making these as often as my family would like but I did get enough requests that I made them tonight and everyone loved them. You could also fry them in a skillet on the stove if you like.

This recipe is as old as I can remember. You can also use canned biscuits in place of the crescent rolls. This is a recipe the kids love to help with!
The minis are perfect for appetizers or snacks… I have to keep an eye on them when I am making them as they tend to disappear as soon as they hit the serving tray! Continue reading “Pigs in a Blanket”
This is our basic meal plan for the week. Sometimes we will switch the days around if I forgot to set something out or put something in the crock pot. Please feel free to use this or change it around to suit your family’s needs.
I have started trying to do easier meals on days that I have square dancing obligations. This helps me to be able to put a nice meal on the table without feeling guilty about having some much needed ‘Mommy Time’. Some of these meals may also help with those that have busy or irregular schedules due to work or extracurricular activities.
I do have ‘Snacks/Desserts’ listed as well. I always try to keep a bowl of fresh fruit out on the counter or table for the kids to snack on. Sometimes I will make a special snack or treat for us to enjoy.

According to many sources, her flight dinners had to be quick, nourishing, and easy to eat. She also really liked tomato juice as a beverage to sustain her.
Tomato Soup –could have been taken in a cup and sipped with a straw
Grilled Cheese, Veggie Tray
Chocolate Squares, Raisins
**After dinner, go stargazing with a cup of hot cocoa in hand and imagine what it must have been like in the cockpit of the plane with Amelia.
