I haven’t shared anything from my kitchen here in a very long time. The main reason? I can’t seem to take pictures on a regular basis. Ugh! So I’m really going to be intentional about taking pictures. And then post them regularly on Monday. You’ll notice today is Thursday. lol

Our little garden gave us so many tomatoes this summer. Before the first frost, we picked all the tomatoes left on the vine. We ate them as they slowly ripened. These tomatoes below? We ate them last week, the first week of December. What a treat to have garden tomatoes in December! So good!

A few months ago, I bought a new FoodSaver vacuum sealer. And I love it! I used it to vacuum seal 14 meal size packages of sliced green tomatoes from the garden for the freezer. Some of the family loves fried green tomatoes. So they are in for a treat this winter!

My husband harvested a deer during hunting season. We process the meat ourselves. I vacuum sealed 36 packages of venison for our freezer.

This Foodsaver worked like a dream for me. I highly recommend it, if you need a vacuum sealer.

Is there anything better than the smell of peppers and onions cooking?? Ok maybe….a chocolate cake….and a babies head! lol

I’ve been on a grilled cheese sandwich for lunch kick lately. I spotted some cooked bacon in my freezer, and thought that sounded good. So I warmed up the bacon in the pan, pulled it out and proceeded with the sandwich. Grated cheddar cheese, bacon, and more grated cheddar cheese.

It was so good!! I just might have another one for lunch today!

And last, but not least, my husband had a birthday. His favorite yellow cake with chocolate frosting. Not nearly as good as chocolate with chocolate frosting! lol
