Easter Giveaway
I wish I was as creative as Corrin is, so I could do giveaways like the above picture. Alas, I am not, so instead I just enter them instead. Isn’t that Easter basket awesome? I personally would want to see lots of chocolate in it. M&Ms, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, you know things like that would be an excellent addition, don’t you think? I know Bill would want some Peeps in there. I personally don’t care for them, but he likes to eat them stale. Ewwwww. Since my birthday is three days before Easter this year, this would make a good birthday present Corrin (hint, hint, nudge, nudge).
Four Foods On Friday
Okay, I have been slacking. I keep forgetting to do this meme. Here are the questions for this week:
#1. Bacon. Chewy, crispy or burnt? Chewy. Doesn’t that sound so yummy?
#2. Mayonnaise or miracle whip? I am a miracle whip girl, but the hubby is a mayonnaise man. Yes, we have a jar of each in the house.
#3. What green vegetable is used in Italian Wedding soup? Spinach (I had to look it up though – lol)
#4. Share a recipe that you use Italian sausage in. Lasagna:
Ingredients:
1 box (16 oz) lasagna noodles
1 lb sweet Italian sausage
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
2 eggs
2 lbs ricotta cheese
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (8 oz)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 jar (48 oz) seasoned tomato sauce
Makes 8 servings
Prep time: 25 minutes
Bake time: 1 hour
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Cook lasagna noodles as package directs; drain and rinse.
Meanwhile, in a nonstick skillet, cook sausage and onion till brown. Drain fat. Stir in garlic and red pepper flakes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine eggs, ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, and basil. Mix well.
Spread a layer of tomato sauce in a 13 x 9 inch baking dish; top with a layer of noodles. Cover noodles with a layer of the cheese mixture; top with some sausage mixture. Cover with a layer of sauce. Repeat layering with noodles, cheese mixture, sausage mixture, and sauce. Top with final layer of noodles and sauce.
Bake covered for 45 minutes. Uncover and bake about 15 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

Update on Will
Most of what we needed this morning was to leave (okay, that’s what I needed). As you may have read from my previous post, we had a rough morning here. I brought him to the chiropractor, and she even said he seemed a bit off. I ended up calling the pediatrician who thinks what I did: he has a touch of the flu. Since he seems fine between throw ups, just keep an eye on him and give him pedialyte instead of formula. Since we have been doing this for almost 2 days, he should be on the tail end of this.
As of right now, we are still going to do Madison’s birthday party. He seems to be okay. The food is bought and thawed out (the ham). We are calling everyone and just letting them know the situation. They can make the decision if they want to come. I left a message for my family up in Wisconsin since they haven’t left yet and just are awaiting their calls. He could be over all of this by tomorrow, so I hate to call it all off.
