First Snow of the Season

Seems like the first snow of the season always brings out the scaredy cat in people, me included. Today was the first snow of the season. It came in fast and hard, and it made sure that the roads were a terrible mess. My little Chevy Cobalt is really no match for the snow, especially when in all reality, someone with my yellow belly should be driving some sort of SUV.

So like most of New Hampshire right now, I’m sitting at home, looking out the window and thinking, “how was I not prepared for this?” Last week we had short sleeve weather and now we’re getting buried in snow and our roads are super slippery.

Even yesterday, Andy and I just bought a shovel. Yes, JUST. We realized with all the weather reports that we were going to probably need one. Our plow guy only comes at night so in the mornings, we’re on our own. I also forgot to purchase warmer winter gloves and then had to dive headfirst into my storage closet to find my winter boots that had been hidden for the last 9 months. Seriously, I am very unprepared for this season.

Cupboard Clean Out Casserole

Sometimes the best meals are the accidental ones. Like this one. Andy had wanted something hearty for dinner and I hadn’t gone to the grocery store and really didn’t feel like dealing with people, waiting in lines, or figuring out what I should make. So I started pulling things from our cabinets and just throwing them together into a pan. What came out was actually pretty magical, so much so that I’ve made this dish a few times with planning.

Cupboard Clean Out Casserole

1 lb of ground pork sausage
5 medium sized potatoes
1 small can of corn, drained
1 medium green pepper, diced
1/2 sweet onion, diced
1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
black pepper
salt
rosemary
garlic powder

Preheat oven to 350.

Microwave potatoes for 8-12 minutes or until they are fork tender. Cut into 1/4 to 1/2 pieces and place in a bowl.

In a medium skillet, cook ground sausage until browned, making sure to break it up into small pieces. Set ground pork sausage aside (into potato bowl), leaving any remaining fat in the pan. Add onions and peppers to pan and cook for 5-10 minutes on medium heat until onions and peppers are slightly browned. Add to bowl with sausage and potatoes. Add about 1/2 tsp of each black pepper, salt, rosemary, and garlic powder. Toss to combine.

Pour mixture into a roasting pan. Top dish with shredded cheddar cheese, then put pan into preheated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until cheese has melted and browned.

Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes, serve and enjoy.

Oven Roasted BBQ Country Ribs

This was a lazy night. I’ve been straight out for the last two months with Andy and I fully diving into owning our own company and the holidays coming up. We have been SWAMPED with orders for candles and wooden gifts. Don’t get me wrong, I am beyond thrilled and words cannot express how excited I am every time that I hear the Etsy app go off telling us we have a new order. I just feel bad that my blog has been put on hold, especially when I don’t write nearly as much as I used to.

So I’m taking a minute to at least share one meal with you all. When I do have time to cook now, it’s anything that’s simple and easy to do. Cheap helps, too, and country ribs were on sale at the supermarket. (WIN!)

All you need is your favorite BBQ sauce and some country ribs and you’re good to go! Add a side of peas and mashed potatoes and that’s what I call a meal! This is best made on the weekend when you can let it cook for a few hours and then just have it ready to go.

Oven Roasted BBQ Country Ribs

Bottle of your favorite BBQ Sauce
About 3 lbs of country ribs

Preheat oven to 350. Place ribs in a roasting pan, and generously cover and coat ribs with BBQ sauce. Place pan in over and bake for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, until meat is fork tender. Remove from oven and let cool for about 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Full disclosure, I am not good with makeup. I know how to use it…. mostly. But I’ve always just purchased random pieces of makeup I think I need and have gone from there.

I do not know how to contour my face (I pretend). And I’ve never done a successful smokey eye (I always end up looking like I just got into a fight with a stranger down a back alley). So, when my makeup guru friend Jocelyn found out I’d been faking make up all this time, she made me come over to her house and bring my makeup bag (ok, bags). Surely, she would be able to find some rhyme or reason in my makeup bag.

I’m slightly embarrassed. I mean my bronzer and one of my blushes are broken into just powder. And bless Jocelyn’s heart, she actually took the time to try to make my makeup bag work for a quick makeup tutorial. If you didn’t think I could be more of a mess, just watch the video.

Oh yeah, and my hair is black now. Boom! Take that fall. I have black hair now!
