Drinking Jars

Kind of a weird title, but that's what I call them.  These are 24 ounce wide mouth canning jars, plastic screw on lids I drilled a hole in, stainless steel straws, and crocheted sleeves.  I have been crocheting a lot lately and these little sleeves are quick to make in cotton yarn.  Some have been sold and some have been given as gifts.

A little personal update.  My son seems to be doing well.  He is still in a recovery program and as far as I am concerned, can continue with it as long as he needs to.  It is outpatient, so he lives as much of a normal life as possible.  He is still looking for a job, but that is getting closer, I believe.  Daughter is doing very well and keeping busy at work.  I am doing okay.  Just try not to let things get to me, although that is difficult at time.

Thrown Together Supper

I didn't think about thawing anything out for supper, so I just threw together a few ingredients and called it good.  And guess what?  It tastes good! 

There was a pound of ground check in the freezer that I just put in the skillet on low to kind of defrost and brown at the same time.  When it was all browned I added a diced onion and let it saute til done.  Added some noodles and a mix and match of things to make the sauce.  Lots of garlic powder, onion powder and season salt for flavor.  The sauce had a pouch of velveeta and some leftover cream cheese filling I used on tortilla roll ups.
