The Nesting Corral: December 2013
http://nestingcorral.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
It's been ages since I've posted a recipe! I meant to post this one back in June, but life as a pregnant mother of four kind of took over. Now I'm a not pregnant (thank goodness) mother of five! But the last nine months of physical misery was worth it because now we have this beautiful bundle, Mikkelsen (Mikkie) Faith, in our lives. She is already a month old! 1 cup butter, softened. 1 cup powder sugar. 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. 1 1/2 cups flour. Red and green granulated sugar. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Grilled Cheese Sloppy Joes. I love this concept of combining two of the most all American sandwiches together. This is truly an awesome sandwich. I like it. a lot. maybe too much. Another bonus to this sandwich besides tasting amazing, is it is super easy to make a big batch of them. Here's the skinny. Sloppy Joe meat [click for recipe]. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter one side of all the pieces of bread. Place slice of bread buttered side down on cookie sheet. Lay down a piece of cheese. Add 1 table...

Nesting Corral Cherry Pie Bars. Yesterday was incredibly sunny. It was so nice to see the sun again after a few months of darkness. The sun got me thinking about summer, which got me thinking about summer fare, which in turn made me want a fruit pie! I neither had the time or ambition to actually make a fruit pie, so I did the next best thing. I made these cherry pie bars. These are super easy to whip up, no peeling or pitting fruit, and no crust to roll out. And they taste so delicious! Hey, I'm Jess!

Few things are as good for breakfast (or occasionally dinner) as pancakes. This simple, basic, old fashion recipe for pancakes fits the bill. These pancakes are fluffy, flavorful, and filling. And they're made with staple ingredients and mixed by hand. Nothing like going back to the original recipe to make a good ol' standby like pancakes. Your hungry crew won't be disappointed! 5 1/4 baking powder. 2 eggs, lightly beaten. 2 1/2 cups milk. 4 Tablespoons butter, melted and cooled. Hey, I'm Jess! Montana n...

Here's the DL. 3-5 sprigs of mint. 2 cups of fresh blueberries. 2 cups of fresh raspberries. It has been ages since I last posted!

Raspberry Honey Oat Bars. I adore desserts that I can also eat for breakfast. That is, eat for breakfast and it looks like a breakfast food. Because let's face it, I really could, and often do, eat any dessert for breakfast. But I like it when no one else realizes it's dessert. These bars are perfect for that reason! You've got to give em a try. They are so simple and good. Here's the skinny. 1/2 cup granulated sugar. 1 1/2 cups flour. 1 1/2 cups rolled oats. 3/4 cup brown sugar. 1/2 teaspoon baking soda.

The Nesting Corral: The Studio
http://nestingcorral.blogspot.com/p/studio.html
If I have time and space I also love to paint- but I get to do that at most once a year. I also enjoy clay, sculpture (mostly wood), and drawing. Hopefully, one day I will have a studio! Most of my creative juices are poured into my daily necessities of cooking and home decor. But this page will be dedicated to the small amount of Fine Art I am able to produce. Enjoy!
