It's Friday!

It's Friday. What have I been up to this week?!
I finished up the Bible Study on the book of Esther with Beth Moore.
It was really great. I learned a lot about the Jewish culture that I didn't know and how amazing God is in everything. I also learned several things about life and how tough it is being a women! Anyone here completed the study? I'm now starting a in depth study on the book of Leviticus.


Easter baskets are rolling on, onto the machines, and onto the postal service...
We are staying caught up on these cuties and shipping daily. The Easter bunny is so proud of us for getting these out so he can fill them up with goodies! Is the Easter Bunny going to visit your house? Do you have any fun traditions you want to share?

Order our Monogrammed Easter Baskets
through April the 7th OR until they sell out

Happy St. Patricks Day. Recipe Tuesday Cookies!






What a very easy easy easy and fun thing to do tonight with your kiddos.
This is what we are going to eat for dessert,
Sugar cookies with Green Sprinkles.
Why do sweet little children love Sprinkles?


And the children's motto for Sprinkle is
"The more the better!"




We are going to cheat and used store bought sugar cookie dough and add our Sprinkles but, for those of you who have the time today to make them from scratch here you go!

Sugar Cookies
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract


DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). In a small bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in egg and vanilla. Gradually blend in the dry ingredients. Roll rounded teaspoonfuls of dough into balls, and place onto ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden. Let stand on cookie sheet two minutes before removing to cool on wire racks

Sushi Anyone? Recipe Tuesday--



Sushi.
I can't get enough of this stuff. I love to eat out at my favorite Thai restaurant and eat sushi. I'm going to try and make this at home on Friday night. I always get the salmon super crunch.
I love crunchy foods. It's topped with smoked salmon and has this crunchy tamari on this inside.

I'm going to see if I can't pretend I am Rachel Ray for 30 minutes and make this one below and top it with fresh smoked salmon from the Fresh Market. You dip it in wasabi and hoisin sauce and it is so very very good!! If you make sushi and have a really good recipe please let me know. I would love to try it.


1 1/4 cups water
1 cup uncooked glutinous white rice (sushi rice)
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 pinch salt
4 sheets nori (dry seaweed)
1/2 cucumber, sliced into thin strips
1 avocado - peeled, pitted and sliced


DIRECTIONS
Combine the water and rice in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, or until rice is tender and water has been absorbed. Remove from the heat and stir in the vinegar and a pinch of salt. Set aside to cool.

Cover a bamboo sushi mat with plastic wrap to keep the rice from sticking. Place a sheet of seaweed over the plastic. Use your hands to spread the rice evenly onto the sheet, leaving about 1/2 inch of seaweed empty at the bottom. Arrange strips of cucumber and avocado across the center of the rice. Lift the mat and roll over the vegetables once and press down. Unroll, then roll again towards the exposed end of the seaweed sheet to make a long roll. You may moisten with a little water to help seal. Set aside and continue with remaining nori sheets, rice and fillings.
Use a sharp wet knife to slice the rolls into 5 or 6 slices. Serve cut side up with your favorite sushi condiments.
