Yum-o

So I usually don't get so excited about receipes that I make...except for this one! I made dinner tonight and made a mile high lasagna from the Racheal Ray Show! I had seen this one when she made it and it looked really good. And it was pretty easy. So I am not sure if I am just shocked because it actually worked or it tasted really good, but either way you should try this. Here is the ingredients but just go to the website for the show and search her receipes. It even has a video segment of it for those challenged cooks such as myself!


Ingredients
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO)
1 large onion, grated
2 to 3 cloves garlic, grated
1 pound ground sirloin
2 cups beef stock
1 28-ounce can San Marzano tomatoes
1 15-ounce can crushed tomatoes
3 to 4 basil leaves, torn
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons flour
1 quart milk
A few grates fresh nutmeg
2 boxes oven-ready lasagna noodles (use 1 box per loaf pan)
2 cups grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, divided
1/2 cup provolone cheese, grated
Parsley, chopped, for garnish





Oh yeah and for all you belly fanatics....well here is your picture!

Only double digits now!

So I am a total loser! I can't believe that it has been over a month since I posted anything! There isn't much to post though. It is crazy to think that I have less than 100 days left until baby gets here! Wow.

We are also going to make our blog private and so if you want me to put you on the list I made a generic email account so you can send me your email address. Email: meljsn@gmail.com

Thanks everyone!!!

5 year Flashback!!!

So way back when we got married our photographer just gave us a package deal with so many photos. I was kinda sad because I wanted all the pictures! It would have cost us $300 for a cd with all the pictures on them. Well we kept saying we will get the pics, we will get them. Well I got a call a few months later that he was closing his business and would I like to buy the cd's for $100. Uh, heck ya! So we got them and were looking at them. Wow it is pretty funny. Look at Jason's baby face. These were some engagement pics we didn't even use and there are more from our wedding but I just thought I would post some of these!

Jason Jr.

Well I had my 20 week ultrasound and ... It's a boy!!! We are really excited! It was so stinking cool to see him moving around in there and see his little face and fingers and toes! Yep pretty cool. Now we just have to chose a name which has been extremely difficult for us. Boys names are so difficult so if you have any ideas send them my way!

Just a quick little post...

Sorry it has been a while of staring at my blog. Girls camp was this week and so I have been overwhelmed trying to get that done and a few other things have been on my mind so I haven't even looked at these for a few weeks. Girls camp is over and I am exhausted. Anyway more to come later!
