Checkbooks, Potatoes, Guns & Shelley

as promised, here is my scrapbook-ish item. it's a check book holder thing-ey. i think i will be doing something else with it, but when i made it, i didn't have time.


some of you know, i am obsessed with the pioneerwoman blog. she does pretty much everthing. on her site, she has a cooking section, the other day i saw these little jewels, that night i made them for dinner with a roast. mmmmm

(please for the sake of all that is holy, click this picture to enlarge it. mmmm)
i didn't really make them how she said to, but they were still way good. first you boil a whole bunch of potatoes until they are fork tender, then you put them on a cookie sheet (covered in olive oil) and with a potato masher, slightly crush them. brush olive oil on the top, add kosher salt, and cut up some rosemary, or whatever fresh herb you have on hand, very finely and add on top then bake at 450 for 20 minutes. after they were done, i added bacon bits (which is a treat in our house) they were like baked potato on steriods. you can get better instructions on her site. (i have a link on the right side Pioneer Woman) mmmm mmmm mmmm they were GOOD.

yesterday i said i went shooting. well this is shooting for me. ow ow. i don't think i hit the paper at all but i'll pretend.

and last but not least, a little gift from me to you....

straight up don't tell me, do you really want to love me forever, oh oh oh.....ow ow
