#MarchPhotoADay Photo Challenge (Days 1-12)

I am such a SLACKER here lately!
I've neglected the blog for over TWO (2) months!!!!
I decided to pick it back up with the #MarchPhotoADay Photo Challenge I found on Pinterest.
With this challenge, you are supposed to take a picture each day of the listed "clue".
My computer has been going coo-koo for the past few days, so I just now have been able to upload and post the photos!

Day 1: "UP"
Taylor was showing me how high she could jump up on her & Jeremy's trampoline

Day 2: "FRUIT"
We didn't have any real fruit, so I had to make do with our kitchen table centerpiece.
Day 3: "YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD"
As you can see, we don't live in a "neighborhood". We live out in the country and have neighbors, but at a distance! :)

Day 4: "BEDSIDE"
Day 5: "A SMILE"
For some reason blogger turned it back on itside, but my smile came from seeing my bush in my yard blooming! Spring it finally on it's way!

Day 6: "5 PM"
5pm is our supper time!
Day 7: "SOMETHING YOU WORE"
My rings are something I wear everyday!
Day 8: "WINDOW"

Day 9: "RED"
Nothing say's "red" like a little red wagon!

Day 10: "LOUD"
Living diagonally across the street from a VFD, it gets loud at times with the fire alarm!

Day 11: "SOMEONE YOU TALKED TO TODAY"
Our cat, Little Bit
Day 12: "FORK"

Steakhouse Shephards Pie {VERY Pic Heavy!!}

As I posted in my Menu Plan Monday post, we had Steakhouse Shephards Pie for dinner. I thought I would share the recipe for everyone along with pictures. This is so delish that I've made this my go to recipe for this type of dish!


While the potatoes are cooking, heat olive oil in a pan and add the bacon.


Crisp the bacon.
















Let it cook and thicken up and you get the results below.

A vital part of being frugal, to me, is meal planning!
I plan every meal my family has right down to the kiddo's snacks!

I will only post our dinner menu; the rest would be too much! LOL!

So for the week of January 2nd, here goes:


Monday- Sloppy Joes and Mac & Cheese

Wednesday- Crockpot Cube Steak with Peas & Mashed Potatoes

Thursday- Steakhouse Shepards Pie with Crescent Rolls



Sunday- Lasagna


Happy New Year!!

With the new year, comes new resolutions....what are yours?
