Hi all!
Not so good about posting lately...nothing interesting to blog about really, but I have tried these new things and wanted to share with you..
first of all THANK you to Heather....for this recipe!!
Oven Baked Wings
1 cup Maple syprup
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup zesty italian dressing
about 3lbs. wings
Mix all together and marinade over night....place on well greased cookie sheet, bake on 400°....bake for about 20 minutes, then flip and bake another 20-30 minutes depending on your oven!! Be sure to marinade the full 24 hours, this really adds to the flavor!!!
Another recipe....Kathy actually found it but I tried it tonight...it was really good!!
http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Mushroom-Sauce-Baked-Pork-Chops/Detail.aspx
Here's what I changed...I used 8 pork chops, 2 cans cream of mushroom soup and 1 1/2 cups milk. I recommend totally slicing your potatoes thin...I didn't thinking they would be mushy, but they were still a little crispy and I didn't cook the entire time...I stopped it at about 12 minutes to go...other than that, the chops were yummy and tender, and the gravy was great!! Will do this one again and again!! Thanks Kathy!!
I'll be back with more later!!!

Christmas Cooking...
Here's a list of things I hope to make this Christmas Season...
Pretzel Turtles - these were a hit with all the teachers!!! My favorite way of making these were with the candy cane kisses on top with a green m-n-m pushed in on top!!
Fudge (hopefully I'll just be eating Grams!!!)
Buckeyes
Snowball Cookies - very good, as always!!!
Decorated Sugar Cookies - making these this afternoon!
Truffles These were very good, but I think I prefer the Oreo over the nutter butter!
Overnight-Pull-Aparts - These were awesome!!! A must try for everyone!!!
Breakfast Upside Down Cake - We made these tonight and I would suggest making this with more eggs, more cheese, and less potatoes. Very good! We served it with salsa! yumm...
Brunch Enchiladas
Clone of a Cinnabon - These were AWESOME!!!
Bacon Wrapped Smokies
Spinach Dip
Bacon Crisp - Okay, the brown sugar version is much better than the Parmesan cheese, but I'm still not a huge fan of either one. So, basically I'll probably never make either one ever again. All of our tastes are different, but I'm not sure I'd waste my time on this one!!! :(
What about you? What are you cooking this Christmas Season? Send me some of your ideas!!! I'm sure I'll be adding to my list this week, so check back!!!
