Blueberry Succes and Failure

The other day, I thought that it would be really good to try and make some blueberry muffins. I used a recipie from Everyday Food magazine, which I really like. I was feeling very Rachel Ray and thought that I would make the muffins even better by adding a strusel topping. I made it out of butter and sugar. However, as you can see I failed miserably and almost burned our apartment down. All the butter melted and ran onto the bottom of the oven and filled the kitchen and front room with smoke. I was bummed, but next time I am just sticking witht the recipie!
Howevet, I think I invented my current favorite smoothie. I just put blueberries, lemonade and lemon yogurt and mix it all up! Yum! I want one right now!

How this will work

Every so often, just post what you are making for the night or week or however you plan. If there are any stand out recipies that you want to share, than please do. But don't feel like you have to post recipies for EVERY meal. I think just seeing what other people make can be inspiring, too.

LISA AND BRETT's WEEK of FOOD

Wednesday - Beef Stroganoff
Thursday - Strawberry Salad(lettue, strawberries, sugared almonds blue cheese) and Homemade Wheat Bread (I need to learn how to cook bread).
Friday - leftovers
Saturday - EAT OUT!!
Sunday - Homemade chicken fingers with dipping sauces and roasted veggies
Monday - TACOS!! ( CinCO De MaYO )
Tuesday - Taco Salad
Wednesday - Avacado Chicken Melt

BeEF STRoganoff: I tried something new and it was suprisingly good, cheap and easy. I just browned ground beef then mixed in a can of cream of celery, cream of mushroom and garlic, and a lipton onion soup envelope. I let that cook for a few minutes. Then I added some sour cream until it was how I liked it and served
it on brown rice with broccoli.



For the salad, I used this dressing*Brianna's Blush Wine vinegarette*... it is a good one to keep on hand:
