New Recipe for Meat Balls

Hi Everyone,

I know it has been a quite a few days since I last post here on y kitchen blog.  I just had to write to all of you before another day goes by.  This past Wednesday I tried something new.  I had been thinking about since I was in CA back in February and I just did.  I call them Bacon Wrapped Meatballs.  My guys loved them

Here is the recipe:

Bacon Wrapped Meatballs

2 lbs. of ground turkey
1 egg
1/4 c. of milk
1/2 c. Italian Seasoned Breadcrumbs
1 tps. of the following seasons:
     garlic powder
     onion     "
     sea salt
     pepper
     cilantro
     thyme
     basil
     oregano
3/4 lb. of bacon (cut in 1/2)

Mix all of the ingredients together except for the bacon.  Roll the turkey mixture in to large meatballs and then wrap with a 1/2 slice of bacon.  Insert a toothpick to hold the bacon in place.  Place in a glass baking dish and bake for 1 hour at 400 degrees.

They can be served plain or with any desired sauce for dipping.

They are delicious, like I said my guys loved them.

Well I hope you give them a try.  Please comment and let me know what you think and also let me know if you try them and how they turned out for you.

Have a great evening.

Hugs,
Janet

Tomorrow: Resurrection Sunday

Hi Everyone,

Yes tomorrow is Resurrection Sunday.  I look forward to this very special day as I remember the resurrection of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  I also look forward to the special time in church and we praise and worship the Lord Jesus.  It is always good to be in the House of the Lord worshiping, learning, and fellowshipping with my brothers and sisters in the Lord.

Tomorrow after church we will gather with family, have a special Easter meal and just spend some special time with our family.

We will have potato salad, ham, pickled beets and eggs, baked beans, and deviled eggs.  If you want to try some new in your potato salad use Marzetti's Cole Slaw dressing.  It gives it a special zing and it is delicious.  I also added it to my filling for the deviled eggs.

Well I pray everyone has a blessed Resurrection Sunday.

God bless all of you and hugs from me,
Janet

Tea on Tuesday

Hi Everyone,

I have been visiting some blogs that celebrate tea.  I have enjoyed tea since I was a little girl.  Mom never sent us to school unless we had our tea with our breakfast.  Then when I was older and walked home for lunch, she always had tea waiting for me to have with my lunch.  I have grown to love many different teas and one of my favorites is Earl Grey.  I love the aroma and the taste is divine.  I always use sugar and cream.  However when I was visiting my daughter last month there were some teas that I enjoyed without cream.

Today's tea for me is Earl Grey.  I hope all of you enjoy my pictures that I have posted.

Let me say as we draw closer to this coming Sunday I pray all of you have a blessed Easter holiday as we remember what our Savior Jesus Christ did for us.  Let us celebrate together Resurrection Sunday.

Thanks for stopping by and visiting.  Please leave a comment, I would love to know you were here for a visit.

Hugs,
Janet

Snowy Monday

Hi Everyone.

I just had to post tonight.  I have been visiting some of the blogs that I follow and let me say the teas that everyone is holding are just so wonderful.  I have learned how to do the linking thing so if anyone can teach I would really appreciate it.  It is nice reading all about the teas and seeing the different tea sets that everyone shows.  I also enjoy the many other pictures that you show as well.

Well I must close.  I hope everyone has a great evening.  And thanks so much for sharing your teas with me. I really appreciate it so very much.

Hugs,
Janet

New Tea Cup Pin Cushions

Hi Everyone,

I have been busy creating and have also started moving back down to my craft room.  The weather seems to be getting better and is not so cold down in the craft room.  I have made some more tea cup pin cushions as well as tea spoon pin cushions.  I have also join another swap site and have been doing some swaps with them.  They are very creative people and I love seeing all of the creations.

I plan on uploading some of my pictures so that you can see what I have been up too.  I hope you enjoy them.  Please leave a comment, I would really appreciate it.  Also please visit my other blog; nananovembersparlor.blogspot.com.

I always look forward to your visit.

Back from California

Hi Everyone,

I am finally back from California.  What a great time I had with my daughter and her family.  It was so much fun and I want to share some of the things we did while I was there.  We did crafts with the girls, had a tea party and sewed aprons with the girls.

Also since I have been home I have done some crafting and creating myself that I would like to share as well as show you my latest piece to add to my Solvang collection.  I just can't go to California without making a stop in Solvang.  They have the cutest stores.

Well I will close for now and share my photos.

Hugs to all,
Janet

Tea Pots and Cups

Hi Everyone,

It has been a while since I checked in.  I hope all of you had a great Christmas and a Happy New Year.  Ours was quiet but very enjoyable.  During the holidays I did visit a couple of thrift stores, my favorite place to shop for those unique tea cups and tea pots.  While shopping I found some very unique tea pots and a tea cup and saucer.  I was also able to find a set of dishes that I love.  They are very simple.  I would call them a pink country and pink is my favorite color.

With some of the other items, miss matched plates, glasses and a tea pot I was able to make a three tier server.  One other thing was a Valentine mug and I already had a single saucer.  I matched the two up and made a Valentine mug pin cushion.

I will be posting pictures of these as soon as I finish this post.

Tell what have you been up to lately?  Are you creating anything new or have you found some new tea pots and cups?  I look forward to seeing them.

Well I am going to close for now.  Pictures will be posted.

Hugs,
Janet
