Wontons...

I love wantons, crispy on the outside, savory on the inside... I bought some wrappers and filled these with cream cheese and a couple slivers of onion, then threw them into the deep fryer... OMG they were so good...

 I made up some noodles to compliment them, but they totally stole the show...

Paula Let Me down...

I can't believe it... I love Paula Deen so much... her recipes are amazing... I have always had success when I use her methods... Well, not this time... She made Pulled Pork Egg Rolls on her show the other day and I was totally intrigued!

Cole slaw, and pulled pork mixed together with bbq sauce and sweet relish...

I rolled the mixture up tightly into egg roll wrappers and deep fried them nice and crisp.

They were horrible, absolutely disgusting... greasy and overly sweet... I will never, ever, make these again... ever...

Breakfast Delights...

I am really into breakfast lately... I have been eating toast with egg and sausage sandwiches for breakfast most days during the week... to cut back on the fat I use 1 whole egg plus one egg white, whole wheat Sarah lee 45 bread, nonfat butter spread and veggie sausage... still a savory treat in the morning...


I had a craving a few Sundays ago for egg in the hole which I fried up crisp in the skillet before church...


Also recently I saw the idea on Rachel Ray to use thick sliced ham as the base for a breakfast cupcake... these looked cool but were just a little strange for me...

Payton Robert...

Urgh I love this kid! A couple weeks ago we had Payton's first birthday party at Shell and Paul's house... it was a great time! I cannot believe how much kids grow in just one year... his personality is amazing... what an awesome little man, I can't wait to watch him grow up!
