Dirt Cake
For Obadiah's First Birthday we did a Joint Party with his buddy Ezekiel, who was born about a week after Obadiah. Ezekiel's Mommy made a Special Yummy Cake for the two special birthday boys!
A few days after the birthday party, my husband hinted that he wanted me to make one. So, I did.
This Dirt Cake that I made I used Yellow Cake, you can also use Chocolate Cake, Next time I will use Chocolate Cake. Then you put chocolate pudding over the cake. Then you crunch up oreo cookies and pour them over to cover the cake with as little Or much as you would like. Then, I Add Gummy Worms. A very Simple, Easy, And Delious Cake!
I have a new snack that I Love. Oreos & Chocolate Pudding! You should Try it sometime!!

Grilled Ribs
I am a bit behind because I have been out of town. We made this for dinner a little bit before Bud and I left to MI.
This next recipe is one my hubby makes! They are SO Good! This takes a very long time to make-it is not a quick meal!
Before we had a grill we baked the ribs-drinched them in apple juice and put salt and pepper over them.
Since, we now have a grill with a smoker. We grill them and put apple flavored chips in the smoker.
I took pictures with the different steps. My husband is not here right now for me to ask the 'details' of each step, I also can not remember the steps because I think we had these a month ago.
This recipe is WELL worth the time and wait. We also wraper potatoes up in foil and put them on the grill. We had a few other items with this meal that I can not remember.

Christopher wanted extra mushrooms, so we added them in!

Trail Mix Oatmeal
I decided to make oatmeal for breakfast so I decided to 'spiff' it up with healthy yummies!!
I love the first picture--You can see Bud chowing down in the background!
Well, as you can tell by the first two pictures-the ingrediants I added into the oatmeal: milk, peanut butter, brown sugar, & trail mix! For the trail mix I used my chopper to chop up the trail mix pieces which imclude: raisins, m&m's & mixed nuts. I decided to chop them to make them smaller so the tastes would be more joined and because it would be better for Bud to eat.
As you can tell from the photo below--Bud Really Liked this!

Intoduction!
As many of you can tell I have one, created a cooking blog and two, this is my first post on this blog!

I thought this would be a fun blog to do. I am all ready behind...I have at least 3 posts to do from things I have 'created' in my kitchen. I plan on doing several different types of posts--But, All having to do with things going on in Our Kitchen!! I would love feedback and I hope you check back often to see what is going on in our kitchen!
