Monday Madness Recipe Roundup for January 5th

rrtemp.jpgYikes, I am a bit late posting this today, but with the holiday’s and finally trying to resume a normal “work” schedule (and I use the term schedule a little loosely) things have been hectic to say the least. I have been getting many comments and questions about my daughter and how she is doing - please see the previous post for an update. Thank you for all of your well wishes and support. You all amaze me and I feel eternally blessed to have such great friends and readers.

To see past recipe roundups, click here .

Kooky Culinary is first on my list this week with an absolutely fantastic looking Brocoli and Cheese soup .  Interestingly, I am not the biggest broccoli fan in the world, but for whatever weird reason, I do seem to enjoy it covered in cheese. LOL

The Unorthodox Chef shared a whole slew of recipes, but honestly I am after that  Pineapple Macadamia Nut Dip - that simply sounds heavenly.

 Deliciously Dirty always has great recipes, and always for things that look sinfully good that I know will be downfall. LOL She posted a great video tutorial on how to make some great brownies , and I thought the video was kind of a neat touch. Maybe once I get my kitchen cleaned up, I will show you how to make a few things.

The Savings Cafe   had a great Buttermilk Biscuit recipe . I enjoy recipes like this, because I prefer to make things like this from scratch.

I think, The Homesteading Housewife , just might become a regular on my recipe roundup. She is always posting the most amazing recipes and her latest Cajun Chicken Fettucine Alfredo recipe absolutely looks to die for. I’m SO making this, probably this week.

Mom’s Cafe Home Cooking has a really easy, and fantastic looking recipe for  Hearty Vegetable Beef Soup made from leftovers and in your crockpot (my third favorite appliance in my kitchen!)Personally, I think a recipe like this is absolutely perfect for this time of year, so I plan to pop it into my menu in the next week or two.

LAST MINUTE ADD ON: 11th Heaven’s Homemaking Haven shared with all of her readers this amazing Cake Ball Recipe. My kids are on vacation until tomorrow, so I am seriously contemplating making these today.

Thanks everyone for providing such amazing and delicious recipes that cause me to drool all over my screen!

Quick Update on My Daughter

Published by simplywriting under General Edit This

Brie and her UncleAmazing. I have been away for about a week, and to come back to the support and encouragement, prayers and well wishes of my many friends and readers, has shown me how blessed I am. So please accept my many thanks.

Brie is doing much better. She had two antibiotics which kicked the infection. She had to go in Friday for an ultrasound to find out if there was any kidney damage. We haven’t heard anything, but I was told the right kidney looked great. (Unfortunately, we weren’t talking as much during the left kidney, so I never got word). She also had to go through two types of urethrograms, which if you’ve ever had - SO painful. It was really hard to watch and to see her go through that, but honestly she’s a little trooper and did great. She felt pretty bad afterward, but was doing much better this weekend. So yay for prayers and blessings.

We will find out this week what the results are, but for now - it seems things are back to normal as much as they can be, and we will continue to fight this and find out what the problem is. Thank you again to all of you for being so supportive and praying for her. It honestly gives me hope and encouragement, sometimes when I least expect it.

The photograph was taken in November at my brother’s wedding.
