Good bread for cold nights

Digg!
Today I wanted to share something new I discovered on one of my weekly Wal Mart runs.  Over in their bakery department where they have the loaves of french bread and other rolls, they sell these packages of bread by Ecce Panis.  They come in ciabatta like I have pictured below, as well as rolls and demi loaves of french bread.  What I love about this bread is that you bake it yourself at home.  It has a wonderful taste.  And depending what one you get, they run between $1.50 and $2.88.  The ciabatta was $2.88. 

I had some of this bread with the home made Harvest Cream Soup recipe I shared a few weeks ago.  We have had a number of these breads with different dishes such as the soup I just mentioned, as well as spaghetti and stew. 

I love it that these breads have a quick bake time, under 10 minutes.  This bread baked in 8.  If you have the Pampered Chef mini bar stone, as you can see the ciabatta is a perfect fit.



So, this is something quick and easy cooking up in my kitchen.  Hope you are having a great day in your neck of the woods!

Catching up

Digg!
Today is a whirl wind of activity which hasn't left me a lot of time to blog.  But I will be blogging on some great topics later this week including Operation Christmas Child and some ideas for the upcoming holidays.

Hope you are having a great day in your neck of the woods!

Lightning McQueen and Thomas the Tank Engine

Digg!
Well had a wonderful time Trick or Treating even though it started to rain when we started out.  We were able to go to a number of houses and it was exciting this year to see Logan get into it. Last year he wouldn't go, but he was so happy to be Thomas the Tank Engine.

At one point dh had to go and get the car for us and Logan started to fuss.  He was in the back seat yelling, "More houses. Stop! Stop!"  LOL Needless to say for someone who has only been given a few M&Ms, he picked up real quick that candy is a good thing and got into Halloween.

Here are pictures of the boys in their costumes.  As you can see, we had a Lightning McQueen pumpkin and a Thomas Pumpkin.  The boys loved them and their costumes.



Hope you are having a great day in your neck of the woods.
