Update on Hubby

Well, my husband had his check up from surgery yesterday. They said he can resume normal activity. He still has pain but hopefully it will subside completely soon.

I have to say that it has been a very rough two weeks. I got a small taste of what it is like to be a single parent. I honestly don't know how they do it. I wasn't even working during the day and I was exhausted. The kids were home all of the time for spring break and I know that was some of it.

I'm sorry for neglecting my blog lately but I have had to catch up on so many things. I'm hoping that I will have more time this week. So things should get back to normal. Thank you for bearing with me. More yummy recipes to come. :)

God bless,
Amanda

I really enjoyed reading your blog. And I hope that things get a little easier in your house soon. It seems to be like that at my house too. Its the calm before the storm. We are fine for a while and then all hell breaks loose.
Keep up the good work!

I hope everything is okay! I've enjoyed your blog (once I finally had a chance to visit) and would hate to see you disappear. However, I know that family comes first, not the computer!

Smoked Gouda Stuffed Meatloaf

Do you buy ground beef or have your meat gound up fresh? I love to have ours ground up fresh. It's the only way I buy it. I usually use sirloin tip or london broil, and have used a couple of other cuts before too. I just watch for it to go on sale. Sirloin tip was on sale this time and I decided to make meatloaf again. I wanted something different for this one, so I thought why not stuff it with smoked gouda cheese! This was really good. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did! Smoked Gouda Stuffed Meatloaf 2 tablespoons butter 2 onions, diced 5 cloves of garlic, minced ½ cup of ketchup (I used just a tad less than ½ cup) ¾ cup of breadcrumbs 1 teaspoon of thyme 2 eggs 2 pounds of ground beef 1/3 pound of smoked gouda, cut into sticks (like cheese sticks only smaller) Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. In a sauté pan over medium heat, melt butter and then add the diced onion. Sauté until translucent. Add the minced garlic, allowing it to cook for a minute or two. ...
