I'm Back!

It's taken me a while to post again, I have been very busy with school and life in general.  I am very happy to say that for the last two weeks I have written up menus and grocery lists, and I have not been to the store nearly as much, and I get through it quickly when I am there.  That is saving me a lot of precious time that I desperately need.
I also got a lot of studying done this week, and I plan on getting a little ahead.  It really helped with the short test we had in First Aid class this week, I knew the answers!
I was going to make mac & cheese alone with some bacon for meat, but then I saw these lovely thin ribeye and I could not resist.
Mac & Cheese became the side dish, LOL.  That really stretched the steak as the kids ate a lot of mac & cheese.  I will not make the baked kind next time, it tasted too doughy, I prefer boiling the pasta, then mixing the ingredients and cooking for 30 minutes. Notice the brown bits on the casserole dish, the Pyrex combined with a scraped made cleaning very easy.
Finished  meal, It was as good as it looks
 I also made Oreo Cheesecake Cupcakes.  It was very easy in terms of prep, and they were yummy even before the suggested four hour rest time.
I have been on an poached egg kick lately.  Two of the jumbo eggs in the package had double yolks.  Enjoy!
