It was scarey

Since Glen and I decided to put in a garden this year, I made the leap and bought a pressure canner.

Last Monday evening my mom called me and said that my step-dad brought home a big box of green beans and wanted to know if I would can them for her.  Of course I said I would.  Tuesday evening came around and I found myself in my kitchen first looking at this very intimidating pan and then at the instructions on how to use it since I had never canned anything before.

As you can see, everything went as it should…..and I didn’t blow up my kitchen 🙂

Lemon Bars

Glen really wanted to try out the oven in our new stove.  So while out grocery shopping we went down the baking goods isle to decide what we wanted to bake.  We went for the lemon bars as they are one of Glen’s favorite things.

Look how clean and wonderful the inside of our oven looks!!  I periodically just go in and stare at it….I’m weird.  As expected, the oven baked the lemon bars wonderfully.  Can’t wait to make the angel food cake that I decided we needed to make.

New Appliances

Glen and I are the proud parents of a new stove, range hood and dishwasher.  It was lots of fun shopping for them and I was so very excited when they were finally delivered.

This is our old stove and range hood.

The new stove and range hood…..so shiny and pretty.  Can’t wait to test out the convection oven!

The old, yucky dishwasher that barely worked.

The new dishwasher.  Glen and I aren’t going to know what to think when we get to use this baby for the first time.

A Note From Abroad

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sailaway from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” ~ Mark Twain
