Lost tooth and cooking

We had a pretty big last week.

Little Girl lost her first tooth!




I still can't believe how it's happening. The whole "they're growing up before my very eyes" thing. It's overwhelming some days at time that's whisking away and moving at rapid speed. I still remember celebrating that 1st tooth coming in when she was a mere 7 months old and a bundle full of blonde cuteness and the apple of our eye! Sigh.

She is quite proud of her accomplishment and even though we had loads and loads of drama when it was extracted by Daddy. And even though she screamed like she was dying when the blood came out of her mouth. And even after all of that -she jumped up and down and squealed with excitement because she couldn't believe it finally happened. She was SO proud!

Her other bottom tooth is also a little loose, so we shall just keep moving on this train of tooth loss. She does look awfully cute. :-)

I was on a bit of a cooking spree this weekend and I have to say that both new recipes I tried were a huge hit, and both were gotten from my awesome friend Carli back in Indiana. She is my cooking partner in crime and we love sharing recipes. She is from an italian family and therefore, the cooking genes are just in there I think! She has a recipe blog too over at The Dinner Drama.....What's For Dinner?. You will probably see me link over to her every once in awhile on my recipe blog and share some of the great food I have tried from her site.

I will be posting recipes for two different new dishes. One is Sausage stuffed Home-made waffles and Home-made Spaghetti Sauce like you've never tasted! Oh my heavens. My skinny jeans were about ready to bust open this morning at church because of said dishes, but I dare to say it might have been worth it. I worked out 5 days last week, so I am feeling a little justified in my food splurges. I can do that - right? :-)

Head over to The Recipe Box to find these recipes. You HAVE to try them!!!

Have a great week. I need to hear from you girls! You fuel my creativity to keep the posts coming, so please stop and say hello! I love hearing from you!!
