Target Field 9/2/10 & Relaxing 9/3/10

No folks.. I didnt blog last night.. I got home shortly after 1am this morning.. My brother Mikey, my sister Kimmy, and I went to the Twins vs Tigers game at Target field! Our cousin is the Detroit Tigers personal trainer.. He reserved three tickets for us so we got to go! It was sooo much fun and we had such GREAT seats!!! We got to the field early.. got rained and hailed on.. spotted a beautiful rainbow when the sun came back out.. and then headed into the field to get to our seats.. We sat just behind home plate about 20 rows up.. Just far enough up that we were covered with a roof incase it should rain again! It got pretty chilly too! I completely forgot that the Twins now play outside so I didnt think to grab a sweatshirt.. Oops! And our high today was a whole 65 degrees so I am sure you can imagine what last night was like.. Plus we had a breeze to go with it.. After the game (a whole 13 innings!!!) we went out the the parking ramp to find our car.. It took us easily a half an hour to find the car... Im pretty sure we walked the second third and forth levels before we finally found the car!!!

As for today... we didnt really do a whole lot.. We went to do our typical Friday runs.. bank, post office, lunch.. We also went to get gasoline, and to get Natalie and Lily new sneakers! They both got a pair of NIKEs each! Lily's were $9.99! Yay! Joe went to get a grain trailer for his dad down in Owatonna.. then when he got home we all went to get dinner.. Kimmy came with as she stopped at the house while Joe was gone to visit with the babies.. That girl sure can eat bdubs!!! (buffalo wild wings)  She ate a huge platter of nachos plus honey bbq wings! YIKES! She even out ate me! Haha!!

Then it was home for the night.. We got the movie 'The Backup Plan'! I totally recommend that movie! I havent laughed so hard to a movie in a long time! Its a romantic comedy I guess you could say! Im not going to spoil it for anyone who hasnt seen it yet, so just go see it!!!!!! Im glad we bought it instead of red boxing it! As Im sure Ill be watching it again!!!! Haha!

Okay its late and Im very sleepy so I will be going to bed as soon as Nate Man quits wiggling around.. :o) G'nite

Marry Me Meatballs

 I can’t say no to crockpot recipes and Your Barefoot Neighbor shared this one so I had to try it. I’d like to say my children aren’t picky but they all have their own quirks when it comes to food and my youngest daughter didn’t care for the sun-dried tomatoes. Everyone else enjoyed it as it is.  Marry Me Meatballs Ingredients 2 lbs frozen Italian meatballs 4 C chicken stock 1 jar sun-dried tomatoes, drained and chopped  1 can cream of chicken soup Italian seasoning Garlic powder Onion powder  Red pepper flakes 2 lbs gnocchi (shelf stable ones) 1/2 pint heavy whipping cream Baby spinach  Shredded Parmesan cheese (I used shaved Parmesan) Directions Add meatballs, chicken stock, cream of chicken soup, sun-dried tomatoes and seasonings to crockpot. Cook on high for 3 hours. When that is done add in your gnocchi, heavy cream and baby spinach and cook for another 30 minutes on high. Top with the Parmesan cheese. Serve with garlic toast. 

Sausage & Rice Casserole

 Last night we failed to pull anything out of the freezers for dinner. Seems to be a common thing here in this house and it’s quite frustrating. I went to my fridge and saw the mushrooms I had gotten and remembered there was a TikTok recipe for them. Y’all this was the EASIEST meal!  Sausage & Rice Casserole Ingredients  1 lb Jimmy Dean sausage 2 pouches of Uncle Ben’s long grain and wild rice  1 1/2 C. Mozzarella or Cheddar cheese, shredded  1 can of golden mushroom soup 1 package of sliced mushrooms  Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brown sausage, add in mushrooms once almost all the way cooked. While that’s cooking down, pop your rice pouches in the microwave per the instructions. When they’re done add them in with the sausage and mushrooms. Also add in your can of golden mushroom soup and the shredded cheese. Mix it all up and put in the oven for 15 minutes. 

Creamy Au Gratin Potatoes

Oh man! This side dish is absolutely one we will be keeping around! It’d be really good on the smoker too! I do feel like it’s missing some seasonings so the next go around we will play with adding in some smoked paprika and garlic too!  Creamy Au Gratin Potatoes Ingredients   8 medium russet potatoes, thinly sliced 2 medium onion, sliced into rings salt and ground black pepper to taste 6 tablespoons butter 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon salt 4 cups milk 3 cups shredded Cheddar cheese   Directions   Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter a 2-quart casserole dish. Layer 1/2 of the potatoes in the bottom of the prepared casserole dish; season with salt and pepper. Layer onion slices over top, then top with remaining potatoes. Season again with salt and pepper. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Gradually whisk in flour and salt and cook, whisking constantly until raw flour flavor has cooked off, abo...
