Vacation

This week I have been on vacation. When I say vacation, I don't mean a relaxing trip to the beach or a site-filled trip to mountains. I just mean time away from work. I had some extra time to use before the end of the year (yes, i work for one of those companies that if you don't use it you lose it). So I decided to take this week off.
This is what I have been doing:
Monday:
Michael was off. He did yard work. I did house work. I went to my mom's to go through stuff I still had there.
Tuesday:
My friend, Julie and I went shopping. I got a new purse and shoes as well as more CRAFTS!!!!
For supper tuesday night I made an AWESOME recipe. You have to try it.
Mexican Hamburger Casserole
1 pkg. boil in a bag rice
Tbsp butter or margarine
1 med jar of chunky salsa
1 tsp garlic
1tsp onion powder
1 lb. ground beef lean
1 bag of mexican shredded cheese.
salt and pepper to taste
Cook meat and rice. Drain. mix butter, salt, and pepper with rice. Mix salsa, rice, meat, garlic, onion powder in casserole dish. Top with Cheese. Bake about 20 min. (long enough for the cheese to melt) at 350!!! Enjoy.
Sorry I dont have a picture but I promise it is sooooo good.

Wednesday
I worked on a paper all morning, went through stuff for our yardsale, and went to class.
Somewhere in between there I went with my mom to my aunts house to deliver a b-day gift.

Today:
I helped Julie get Cooper ready. He was not feeling well. I went to watch him so that she could get ready. He had to go to the DR. :-(
I came home finished my paper, cleaned my house, and started to make a cake.....when, our friends from Michigan came knocking on the door. I was so excited to see them. They stayed to visit for about an hour. We are meeting them for dinner in a little while. So now the cake is in the oven. I hope it finishes before they call to go eat!!!!! It's a cream cheese pound cake.
I'll post a pic and recipe later. I'll let you know how it turns out. I have only made a pound cake once and it was TERRIBLE!!! Hope it's better this time

I hope you all are having a great week. My vacation is slowly coming to an end :-(... I would love to be a stay at home wife!! The house is spotless and and supper has been ready everynight when Michael gets home. What do you think?????
