Yummy Pumkin Chocolate Chip Muffins

recipe:  www.moneysavingmom.com

I never thought Pumpkin in muffins would be good, but i was wrong, they were Delicious. The recipe was easy to follow and the steps were very simple. I ended up making 32 muffins. these should last awhile. i also took pictures of my baking today, will post pictures in a post later after little one goes to sleep. I love my Kitchen Aid mixer, it makes cooking easier. i don't know where i would be without it, i might still be mixing for the muffins. i am definitely going to keep this recipe and use for future use. So far Chloe and I love them, will find out if my husband Brandon loves as well, when he gets home from work. 

tomorrow I am making my first attempt at a lasagna recipe and muddballs, i am little nervous because we might have company over for dinner. as you can guess this does not help my nerves as it is. i have never made anything for dinner and company, oh my, my Monday may turn into manic Monday from hell. well i guess i will be posting again late tomorrow night with two new recipes and a lot to say on how dinner went.

"Wake-up its Morning".....

Said by my crazy daughter. She then wanted tell me that she was hungry for breakfast, well yesterday my husband and i made breakfast burritos you are able to freeze. so we had some of those this morning and they were so good. i was surprised that she almost ate the entire burrito. This is my  reason for learning to cook healthy meals instead of fast food( which i am glad that she does like Mr. good cents over McDonald's.) We are going to a  wedding tonight and cooking anything today would be impossible. My goal is to cook around 2 maybe three meals weekly . I hope that i can keep this blog up, but with school starting i might not do so well. The wedding will be tonight at six which means tomorrow morning i am going to need a cup of coffee. but on the bright side my family is excited to try these muffins. i can not wait to see how using pumpkin will taste in muffins. I also love coupons and found yesterday a coupon to make my daughters toothpaste fifty cents. I feel awesome when i can find ways to save my family money... it means extra money to be able to save for a vacation.

Breakfast Sandwhiches

This recipe is  a Basic egg and cheese breakfast Sandwich
you can get this recipe from http://www.macheesmo.com

After buying the ingredients I needed to make this at the store, i come home an realize we have a square muffin pan. Oh well it will do. This turned out to be the best sandwich i have ever made by myself. I know its crazy because it is simple steps to someone who cooks, but to someone who does not like cooking it is an achievement to not have something burn when it is finished. I ended up making enough to freeze for two weeks. This makes me so happy that i made something healthy and it taste pretty good. (my husband did say meat would be nice on it) but i followed the recipe and like magic i made a  recipe by myself.  Of course I picked an easy recipe to follow and make. Tomorrow for breakfast i will find out if my daughter enjoys them as well? I also had to take pictures of everything to document my successes. i think it might be my addiction to scrap booking. or that i am crazy for even trying to learn to cook. i hope my next attempt at something goes as good as this. on Sunday i am making pumpkin chocolate muffins.(i hope they turn out)

About me

My name is Amanda and i am a wife and a mom of one beautiful daughter. over the past few months I have noticed my daughter and I at night eat very simple meals and when my husband is home on his two days from work we have an amazing dinner. I recently decided to try and start finding meals that were easy, freezable and cheap. College starts on Monday and adding a full time student to the mix is going to be crazy. I am not very good at cooking, or it could be because I never have liked cooking or because I get frustrated and angry. Maybe it is because I am not  good at cooking compared to my husband, I want to start making simple meals that are healthy for my daughter and I. I created this blog to allow a place where i can store my success and failures of this cooking journey.
