october mini kit giveaway & this month's big reveal!!

as you might have already heard, my laptop has decided to get quirky.  it seems that the video chip (by nvidia) has caused my mother board to sort of short circuit.  i refuse to think about what that might actually mean.  are all of my pictures lost?  were those hundreds of hours of photo editing in vain?  i don't know, and  i have way too much going on this month to even take the time to think about it.  so... i will be doing most of my posting from my computer at work - at lunch and before/after office hours.

first order of business: Midnight Rooster's October mini kit giveaway!! here is a picture of this yummy little kit.

  2. favorite slow cooker recipe is taco soup!
    Crockpot Taco Soup

    1 1/2 cans corn (do not drain)
    2 cans red beans (do not drain)
    2 cans diced tomatoes (do not drain)
    1 1/2 lb. ground round (I use Laura's Lean)
    3 1/2 packages taco season
    1 1/2 packages Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing Dry
    2 small cans tomato sauce

    Brown meat and drain well. Throw everything in the crock pot and cook for 4-6 hours. Or more. Really doesn't matter.
