Autumn Bounty

Yum! We all thoroughly enjoyed this for dinner earlier this week.
Pumpkin Vegetable Stew
4 cups cubed peeled pumpkin (I heated the whole pumpkin in the microwave before removing the seeds & peeling...it's easier that way)
1 can (14 1/2 oz) diced tomatoes, undrained
2 cups fresh/frozen cut green beans (1 in pieces)
1 cup fresh/frozen corn
1/2 cup sliced onion
1/2 cup chopped red pepper
1/2 cup chicken broth (I used the stuff made from a package...where you add water)
1 garlic clove minced (only a toe for us!)
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon pepper

In a large saucepan combine all ingredients. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover & simmer 40-45 min or until veggies are tender. OR you can throw it all in the slowcooker...that worked wonders....low setting for 3-4 hrs. YUM!

Insomnia

Why am I not asleep? Why have I been awake since 4am? Was it the nachos I consumed last night? It's now 0524...both my boys are sleeping....I wish I was too. Soon my fella's alarm will go off...then within an hour or so my little live alarm will go off too...no snooze button there. Oh, its going to be a looooooooong day. Sleep when baby sleeps right? Oh bless the boy for nap time....I can't wait for nap time.

Motivational Monday

I don't know about you, but I could use a little motivation on Mondays.
