What's Cooking

Thankful

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 21:34:00 +0000

I allow myself to start listening to Christmas music the week of Thanksgiving. So today I put on my first Christmas CD, Josh Groban's "Noel." ( If you haven't got it...do it now! ) Then put it on track 6. The song is beautiful and the lyrics are particularly meaningful, especially at this time. If you have a minute, read them! It is a great reminder of how blessed we truly are!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Thankful

Somedays we forget to look around us.

Somedays we can’t see the joy that surrounds us.

So caught up inside ourselves

We take when we should give

So for tonight we pray for what we know can be.

And on this day we hope for what we still can’t see.

It’s up to us to be the change.

And even though we all can still do more

There’s so much to be thankful for.

Look beyond ourselves, there’s so much sorrow.

It’s way too late to say I’ll cry tomorrow.”

Each of us must find our truth

It’s so long overdue.

So tonight we pray for what we know can be.

And everyday we hope for what we still can’t see.

It’s up to us to be the change,

And even though we all can still do more.

There’s so much to be thankful for.

Even with our differences,

There is a place we’re all connected

Each of us can find each other’s light.

So for tonight we pray for what we know can be.

And on this day we hope for what we still can’t see.

It’s up to us to be the change

And even though this world needs so much more

There’s so much to be thankful for!

Jack O Lanterns!

The Tower!

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 07:45:00 +0000

Sue, Kristin, DJ and kids came over the other night and the boys decided to build a giant tower out of blocks! (This was a favorite past time for our boys when they were younger!)
Their favorite tower was the one that went all the way to the ceiling.
This is video of it crashing down! I wish you could see Dalton's face! He was so excted. (And as you can see...so was Nick!)

(Sorry, we had to turn the camera to get the tower.)

The 90!

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 15:53:00 +0000

In 1968 my dad bought a Honda 90. It was a little trail bike that he would strap on the back of the motor home whenever he went hunting. I have fond memories of riding it around the neighborhood, back in the day! (I was so cool!) Several years ago Dad brought it up here for the boys to ride in the hills above our house. They have all loved the 90! Every one of them has talked about fixing it up and making it "street legal." (Except Nick, who just decided to test his luck and ride it on the street anyway!) His luck ran out when he got pulled over, twice...by the same cop! A few hundred dollars, several hours of community service, and one attorney later, we picked it up from the impound lot and parked it in the garage, where it has remained for the last 5 years.
After Sean's graduation, he decided to get the 90 running and make it street legal. He researched everything on the internet, ordered countless parts off of eBay, got his motorcycle license, and spent countless hours working on it. If he got stumped, one of his brothers would come to his rescue. (Bryan was particularly helpful!) It's been a great summer project for him. Here's the final product! I am really proud of him for sticking with this. It's been a lot of work!
This picture has nothing to do with the 90...he's just too cute to leave out!

It's here!

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 13:54:00 +0000

Yes, it's here...Sean mission call came and he will be serving in the Mexico City West Mission! He leaves February 3rd. He is really excited and is really anxious to learn Spanish. (Most all of his cousins speak Spanish) Jared got his call on the same day and will be serving in Guatemala, he leaves Feb. 10th. He spent last summer in Guatemala and loved it, so he's very excited. We're thrilled for both of them and know they will be excellent missionaries!! Congratulations boys!

Where?

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 04:13:00 +0000

Today was a big day for Sean and his good friend Jared. They have been buddies since they were two years old. They have gone through pre-school, elementary school, Jr. High and High School together. They have kept each other out of trouble for 17 years...so it is only fitting that they should turn there mission papers in together!

I freely admit, I am not ready for this...BUT Sean is!! So now the speculation begins. At dinner tonight we all submitted our guesses as to where he would go. We each got TWO choices. One inside the United States and one outside the United States. Here are the choices!

Sean:

1. The moon

2. Brazil

3. New York

Mom:

1. Germany

2. Boston

Dad:

1. West Virginia

2. Russia

Bryan:

1. Ivory Coast

2. Alabama

BreAnna:

1. New Orleans

2. Philippines

Blake:

1. Russia

2. New York

Nick:

1. Italy

2. Georgia

Chelsea:

1. Italy

2. Tennessee

So, what's your guess?

I'll keep you posted as soon as he gets his call!

Too Much Zucchini?

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 02:36:00 +0000

Do you have a garden? Do you have so much zucchini that you're seeing green? Are you afraid to answer you door for fear your neighbors will be leaving it on your doorstep?

Then you are in luck. This is a good way to use some of it up. This is one of my favorite zucchini recipes...my kids too! It is different than your basic zucchini bread because you add oranges to it. It's yummy! I hope you like it.

Zucchini Orange Bread

Mix together:

3 eggs

1 cup vegetable oil

2 cups sugar

1 tsp. vanilla

Then blend in the following:

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. baking soda

2 tsp. baking powder

3 1/2 cups flour

Gradually add:

3/4 cup shredded orange peel

1 - 2 Tlb. orange extract

2 cups finely shredded zucchini

Place in 2 greased and floured loaf pans. Bake about 35 - 40 minutes. (You can also use small loaf pans. It will fill five of them. It will also make about 2 1/2 dozen muffins. They will bake about 20 - 25 minutes) When the bread has cooled about 10 minutes, remove from pans and poke holes in the top of the bread with a fork or toothpick. Cover with Orange Glaze and let cool. It freezes really well, just be sure to wrap it up tight!

Orange Glaze

2 Tlb melted butter

2 - 3 Tlb. orange juice

1/2 cup powdered sugar

Too Cute!

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 00:34:00 +0000

Every time I see baby Steele, I think, "He just can't get any cuter!" BUT THEN HE DOES!

Nobody Does It Better...

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Fri, 31 Jul 2009 23:51:00 +0000

When you read the title...you may think "Bond, James Bond." But I am referring to another man of mystery...Larson, Steele Larson! He turned 60 this week and NOBODY does 60 better than Steele! He absolutely amazes even me! He barely looks 40. He bikes, sails, skis and... did he mention that he climbed the Grand Teton! So Happy 60th Steele...nobody does it better!

Happy Birthday Princess Tammy

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Sat, 25 Jul 2009 04:38:00 +0000

If this date isn't on your calendar...it should be! Today is Tammy's birthday! (I won't mention which one.) Tammy moved here 17 years ago and brought new meaning to the sentence..."there goes the neighborhood!" It's true, our neighborhood hasn't been the same since her arrival... it's only gotten better! She has definitely brought a bright spot to Briggs Drive and we have learned many things from her... these are just a few of them!

-I've learned that "big hair" will NEVER die.
-I've learned that her "precious feet" aren't precious anymore.
-I've learned that Tammy can even make exercising fun (or at least "do-able")

-I've learned that she has special radar when it comes to finding a public restroom.
-I've learned that NO ONE is faster than Tammy when it comes to using that restroom!

-I've learned that she is always the first one to laugh at herself.
-I've learned that she absolutely adores my grand baby and is anxious to have one of her own. (Lindsey....)
-I've learned that she is the perfect person to pull off a practical joke!
-I've learned that I can tell her anything...
-I've learned that she is a lot less expensive than a psychiatrist!
-I've learned that no matter what is going on in my life, she can always make me smile!

-I've learned that NO ONE can sport a "fanny pack" like Tammy!
-I've learned that I can trust her with anything.
-I've learned that she always has a shoulder for me to cry on.
-I've learned that if she has knee surgery, I have sympathy pains!
-I've learned that there is no greater compliment than when people think we're sisters.
-I've learned that she is the sister I choose for myself!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PRINCESS

Fabulous Fourth!

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 07:26:00 +0000

I love The Fourth of July! It really is a FABULOUS holiday...Yes, it's is a great time to get together with family and friends, have a BBQ and watch fireworks, but more importantly, it is a great reminder of how blessed we are live in this nation and to be able to enjoy the liberties we do. I love seeing the all flags displayed throughout the neighborhood. To me there is nothing more breathtaking than the the American Flag, blowing in the wind with the sun setting behind it. I am grateful to every man and woman who has served our country to defend and protect this precious land...starting with my dad! "Thank you" is NOT enough!

This year Nick and Chelsea had all of the family over to celebrate. It was so much fun! We barbecued, made smores and watched fireworks from their front yard. Thank you Chels and Nick! It was the perfect Fourth. Here are a few photos of the celebration.

Master chef....Nick!

I know Bry and Bre missed watching the fireworks off the East River from their NYC apartment, but I hope watching fireworks with their families helped some. (It helped us!)
Happy 233 Birthday America!!!

Dino Disaster!

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 04:20:00 +0000

Dalton celebrated is 4th birthday on Friday and the theme of the party was "Dinosaurs!" Kristin did a great job putting everything together and the kids loved it. I attempted to make a Dinosaur cake, and despite my best efforts...it was a disaster!
Let me start by saying I looked all over the internet for a cute but easy dinosaur cake idea. I finally found the perfect one at a sight called "Easycakes.com" So what could be easier?First, you bake a cake in two 6" bowls and one 8" round. Cool the cakes. Cut the 8" round into tail and head.
Level the top of the bowl cakes and split into two layers. Frost between the layers. Stack the first bowl on your plate or board, right side up. Frost and stack the second bowl and place upside down on top of the other bowl cake.

Attach the tail and frost with a thin white icing to hold in place. (So far...so good)
Take the leg section and slice it in half creating 2 pieces. Attach one piece on either side of the body with frosting. Take the smaller head section and spit horizontally. Secure a smaller head shape on either side of the larger one, creating a half football shape.
NOW THIS IS THE STEP I MISSED!
Push a cake decorating skewer through the body vertically about 3" extending from the top of the body. Push the head on to the skewer to finish your dinosaur.
When you miss this step...this is what happens!
( I left it for an hour or two while I ran errands and this is what I came back to! A decapitated dinosaur!)
I replaced the head, using LOTS of frosting, and then covered it with green butter cream frosting.
The original recipe had you make the eyes, teeth and back fins out of colored molding chocolate. Instead, I used "Runts" for the claws, and the teeth. (Candy corn would have made better teeth) I found "Sour watermelon" triangles and used them for the fins on the back. I frosted two lady fingers cookies and placed them on the sides for the arms.
This takes a ton of frosting!! That was part of the problem. I used so much frosting to hold it all together, that as we traveled to the party on the bumpy road, it just started to fall apart! By the time we got to Kristin's it was a pretty sorry dinosaur! As the structure fell and the frosting squished out the sides, he became more of a "squatty body" and looked more like a blow fish!
Tania had the perfect explanation. She said, "Let's just tell the kids that it got into a fight with Tyrannosaurus Rex!" (That works for me!)

Grateful for Grads!

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Thu, 11 Jun 2009 02:52:00 +0000

We've had a busy, but memorable month...four graduations and a trip to New York!
Up first...Chelsea! She graduated from the University of Utah on May 7th! What a GREAT accomplishment and a great day! We're very proud of her determination and hard work! She's amazing. Doesn't she look beautiful and smart! (No "small brain" here! ;) Congratulations Chelsea!!

Next up... On May 26th Bryan received his doctorate in dentistry from NYU! (Not to mention he graduated WITH HONORS in aesthetic dentistry! Can I just say "WOW!" This is something I can't even imagine doing. I couldn't be more proud of him and his beautiful wife BreAnna! Luckily, all his family was there to help him celebrate! Congratulations! And...if anyone needs a fabulous dentist, I just happen to know one!
Then, on June 5th, Sean graduated from Bountiful High School. This is our last child to graduate from high school! (I can't stand it!) I still remember my mother at my high school graduation...she cried a lot harder than I did, and now I understand why. No more high school plays, musicals, dances, basketball and football games. Life changes dramatically after high school. Sean seems to handling it just fine...I'm the one who's struggling! He has worked incredibility hard since he started school 12 years ago and it shows! We're proud of him and his many accomplishments!

And last, BUT not least...Sean graduated with his four year degree from Seminary! I'm as proud of him for this accomplishment as I am for all his school accomplishments.
As I told all my kids, (and I include Bre and Chels) we are very blessed, and I am so proud of each of them! They are all so different...each with different talents and different challenges, but they get along so well and they love and support each other through everything! As a mother, there is no greater pay off!!

Only in New York...

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Sat, 30 May 2009 06:25:00 +0000

Can you find someone playing bagpipes in the park.

Can you find a lake THIS big...in a park!

Only in New York can you find traffic lights...in a park
eat the BEST Artichoke Pizza!!

Sink the "Titanic!"
watch my son officially become a "DOCTOR"
hug my FAVORITE baby!...and spend time with my favorite people!
Congratulations Bryan and Bre!!
...And WELCOME HOME!

Ouch!

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Wed, 20 May 2009 05:20:00 +0000

About two weeks ago, I woke up with canker sores on the bottom of my mouth. They appeared out of nowhere and have continued to spread all over my mouth. I just get a few of them healed and new ones appear. I think I am on the last set. (I hope!)

I get canker sores when I eat oranges, strawberries, pineapple, tomatoes, nuts (including peanut m & m's!) and sugar. I even get them when I go to the dentist. (always around the tooth he works on.)

I have tried a number of things, and some of them help to shorten the duration of them, but does anyone know anything that will help PREVENT them? Summer is coming and I am looking forward to all the fruits and vegetables in my garden, but these canker sores are a high price to pay for enjoying the bounties of the season. Any suggestions?

Oatmeal Carmelites

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Wed, 06 May 2009 07:30:00 +0000

Don't let the title fool you...I know they have "oatmeal" in them, but these are not really a healthy dessert. They are however, a delicious treat and are easy to make! (You can make it even easier by substituting the caramels and the cream with a 16 oz. bottle of "Mrs. Richardson's" Carmel Butterscotch topping or "Nestle's" Dulce de leche.) They both work great! These will keep in an air tight container for about three days and they freeze really well!

I hope you like them.

2 cups flour
2 cups quick cooking rolled oats
1-1/2 cups firmly packed brown sugar
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 cup butter, melted
14 oz. pkg. light caramels, unwrapped
1/3 cup light cream
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips (you can also use milk chocolate)
1 cup chopped pecans (my kids don't like nuts, so I omit these when I am making them for my family)

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 13x9-inch pan and set aside. In large bowl, combine flour, oats, sugar, soda and salt and blend. Add melted butter and mix until crumbly. Reserve half of crumb mixture (about 3 cups) for topping. Press remaining crumb mixture in bottom of greased pan.

In a small bowl, combine caramels and cream. Heat in microwave oven for 4-6 minutes on 50% power, stirring twice during cooking, until caramels are melted and mixture is smooth.

Sprinkle chocolate chips and pecans over reserved crust. Drizzle evenly with melted caramel mixture and sprinkle with reserved crumb mixture.

Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool 1 hour or until completely cooled. Cut into bars.

Senior Prom

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Mon, 20 Apr 2009 06:21:00 +0000

I can hardly believe it, my "baby" just attended his Senior Prom! (He'll kill me for that one!)

Sean and all his friends gathered here before the big dance and I got to take a few pictures before they took off. They are such a great group of kids. Sean has been friends with most of them since elementary school. It's so hard for me to believe that they will all be graduating in a couple of months.

They had a great time. For their day activity they went to the local thrift store (DI) and purchased outfits for their dates which they HAD to wear to their activity, (ice skating followed by ice blocking!) Unfortunately, Sean didn't have a camera so I don't have pictures of everyone's outfit. But I did get one of Sean!

Then they came back and got ready for dinner and the dance. Following the dance they went to "Flips". (It's a local gymnastics gym.) They had a great time!
I think I am as sad as Sean that this is the LAST high school dance. We've been doing high school dances since 1994...I can't believe it's all coming to and end!

8 Years Ago..

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 06:28:00 +0000

Around this time 8 years ago, we were off to the airport to pick up Bryan, who was returning from his 2 year mission in Brazil. When I look at these pictures, it just doesn't seem that long ago. I remember this day so clearly! We were all so nervous and so excited! ( I think Bre might have been the most nervous!) Time flies! Now Bry and Bre have beautiful son, and Bryan will be graduating from NYU in May! They have accomplished a lot in the last 8 years and we are incredibly proud of them both!
Here are just a few of my favorite memories of that special day!
No explanation needed...

We took this picture the day Bryan left FOR BrazilCompare it to this one on the day he came home! Look at their faces! That says it all!
This is one of my favorite pictures of Bry and Bre. (Does she look a little flushed?)

I guess it won't be long until we do this again. Within a few months Sean will be old enough to leave on a mission. He's not sure when he will put his papers in. He might turn them in this summer, or he might go to school for a semester first. This just doesn't seem possible!
Time really does fly...unless you're the mother of a missionary!

Nick's Favorite Cookies!

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Sun, 05 Apr 2009 05:31:00 +0000

If you are a chocolate lover, these cookies are for you. These have been my kids favorites since they were little...especially Nick! They are also one of my most requested recipes. I hope you like them too!

Chocolate Mint Chip Cookie

1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup butter
1-1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
3/4 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. peppermint extract (less if you use peppermint oil)
2 1/2 cups flour (a little more if you are at a high altitude)
12 ounces chocolate chips (You can use semisweet or milk chocolate)

Cream butter butter, sugar and eggs together for 2 minutes. Add cocoa, salt, soda and mint and mix till blended. Gradually add flour. Stir in chocolate chips. Bake at 350 degrees for about 8-9 minutes. Be sure not to over bake these!

If you can't bake these right away, roll them into 8" to 10" long rolls. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate or freeze. Then when it's time to bake them just thaw (if frozen) slice and bake!(I'm going to blackmail Nick with this one!)

A Brave Man!

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Sat, 28 Mar 2009 05:03:00 +0000

We've had 4 boys attend Bountiful High School and this is the first time we've ever heard of the "Mr. Braveman" Contest. It is Bountiful High School's version of a male beauty contest. Imagine our excitement when we heard that Sean was going to be a contestant this year! He entered on Monday and the contest was Friday. Needless to say, there wasn't a lot of time to get fitted for a tux and get his "talent" together...but he did it. Tonight was the big night and we all went to support him. It was a riot! I haven't laughed this hard in a very long time. For the opening number, all the contestants came out and danced to Britney Spears "Womanizer"! Then each contestant had to share a talent. (Sean danced to Beyonce's "Single Lady!") They finished by having to answer a thought provoking question.
I'm telling you...this was the most fun we have had in a long time! Unfortunately, Sean wasn't crowned "Mr. Braveman", BUT he was the second attendant! (He is currently trying to figure out how to disable the reigning Mr. Braveman and the 1st attendant, so he can "reign" in their steed!)
We'll have a link to some of the video a little later, but in the meantime, here are some pictures. We're so proud!?!Nick and Chelsea congratulating Sean!

Tammy and Dave show their support!

Steele's Big Day!

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 14:34:00 +0000

Look at this face! Could he get any cuter?
Yesterday was Steele's blessing! Fortunately for us, Bry ,Bre and Steele decided to make the long journey from New York to Utah, to bless him here where many of his family and friends are. It was a perfect day. Baby Steele listened intently as his dad gave him an absolutely beautiful blessing! It really is one of those very tender moments for a mother to witness!
It doesn't seem that long ago that I watched Steele hold Bryan and bless him. I remember thinking how wonderful it was to see Steele become a father...he was so at ease with his newborn son, it seemed second nature to him. Now, to watch Bryan become a father is beyond words! It was one of those perfect moments in life. This is one lucky baby to have Bre and Bry for parents. They are wonderful parents! You ought to see baby Steele's face light up when he hears his mother's voice! He is also blessed to have adoring Aunts and Uncles! All these people came just for him! We are grateful for each of them!

Here's What's Cooking?

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Fri, 06 Mar 2009 15:43:00 +0000

Lori and Dana (and their handsome husbands) came to dinner a couple weeks ago and it was so much fun to have them all here. The girls emailed me later for some of the dinner recipes, which I glady sent.

So the thought occured to me...The name of my blog is "What's Cooking", maybe I should occasionaly post some of my familiy's favorite recipes.
If you know me, you know I love to cook, BUT I am NOT a fancy cook. That probably comes from living in an all male household who tend to like the more basic kinds of foods. Here is one of my family favorites...Tortilla Pie. There are many different versions of this, but this is the one my family likes. It is easlily adaptable to your taste.

This is easy to make and you can always make two and freeze one for another night!
Spray a 9" pie pan with Pam and layer the following ingredients:
1. Tortilla
2. Black beans and corn
3. Tortilla
4. Guacamole and cheese
5. Tortilla
6. Grilled chicken and sauted onions
7. Tortilla
8. Salsa
Top entire casserole with grated cheese. Cover LOOSLEY with tin foil and bake at 350 degrees for about 20 - 30 minutes until casserole is heated through. You can garnish with salsa, cilantro, guacamole, and sour cream. You can also eliminate anything you don't like and add other things that you do like.
Sidenote: My favorite tortillas are the ones you buy at Costco in the refrigerator section. They are uncooked and you just heat them on a flat teflon pan. They're fresh and they're not as thick. There's a lot of them, but you can freeze the ones you don't want to cook. (I love to make this after we have Mexican food, because there are usually lots of left overs to use.) Hope you like it!

Top Ten Things I Love About Being Sick...

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 16:24:00 +0000

( I didn't have a picture of me looking sick, so here's one of Nick looking rather sick!)

OK...let me start off by saying that being sick is NO FUN, but because I believe you can find good in everything (and I'm bored), here are the top ten things I love about being sick!

10. I don't have little kids at home, so I really can stay down and rest. (A luxury that young mothers don't have.)
9. I get to experiment with new drugs...(cold medicines!)
8. I now know all the "TV Judges" by name! (we don't have cable and there's nothing on daytime TV)
7. I don't have to clean toilets (or anything) wash, cook, grocery shop or any of that fun stuff! (Of course, it's just waiting for me to recover.)
6. I can indulge in "guilt free" reading, crocheting, and movie watching!
5. My cute little dog hasn't left my side! (If he could only bring me my juice and medicine.)
4. Nick brought me my favorite Keva Juice...with "Immuni-Gizer!"
3. Shawn, sensing my TV drought, brought me the first season of "Burn Notice" with some beautiful spring flowers! (They make me SMILE!)
2. Tammy made my Costco run for me and brought me DELICIOUS homemade Chicken Soup! (I'm feeling better already!)
AND THE NUMBER ONE thing I love about being sick is...GETTING BETTER!

Thanks everyone for all your kindness and help!

Inspiration!

noreply@blogger.com (Nancy) — Sat, 28 Feb 2009 04:09:00 +0000

OK...so I liked the map at the side of Lori's blog and thought I would try it. As you can see on the previous blog, I got it, BUT it was in the center of the page and I can't figure out how to get rid of it. So I thought if I posted something new it would at least move it down the page. So here's an adorable picture of Bryan when he was four years old!
Don't you think this is the inspiration for his love of Halloween and this costume?!
Would you trust this man to be your dentist?! I WOULD!
Love you so much Bry!
