Sew God's Grace

I got this recipe from Matt's Aunt Sarah.  This quick and easy recipe is perfect for a weeknight supper when you don't have a lot of time to prepare.  What I love about it is that you can put whatever veggies and other fixin's in that you want.  If someone doesn't like them, they can easily be picked out.  This means that I get to have my beloved mushrooms, which no one else in my family cares for.  You can make it as much or as little as you want, so it's great for company as well.  You can prepare this in the oven (which I do in the winter) or on the grill (which means my husband gets to cook!)  Here's the recipe: Super Sausage Supper 1 - 2 pounds smoked sausage Potatoes (white or sweet or both, whatever you like!) Zucchini Bell peppers (whatever color you like) Baby carrots Mushrooms, washed, dried and halved Non-stick cooking spray Seasoned Salt Wash veggies and cut into bite-sized chunks.  Cut sausage int...

I know there are a lot of tutorials for this out there because I looked at them to figure out how to do this.  My goal was to be able to do this without having to buy a fancy machine to cut vinyl or pay (and wait) to have someone do it for me.  I made this glass dish for my husband's uncle and aunt, who are huge K-state fans.  We were staying at their house while Matt went to a farming and ranching conference, and I wanted a little something to give them.  This fit the bill nicely!  Here is what you will need: 1.  Armour Etch 2.  Clear Contact Paper 3.  Masking Tape 4.  Scotch 5.  1 inch foam brush 6.  Exacto knife 7.  Latex Gloves 8.  Basic computer skills I used Microsoft word to print their last name and a powercat on either side.  I had to play around with the size a bit until I got exactly what I wanted.  I also put a rectangle around the text and powercats to help with cen...

It's been a couple of months since I have last posted anything. I have pictures ready, but I have not had the time to sit down and get anything typed up! With five young kids and homeschooling, I haven't had a lot of extra time. Because of that, I finally decided to combine some of my kids' birthdays to try to reduce some of the busyness. So, my seven year old and three year old got to share a family party. I told Evan that he will get to have a friend over sometime as part of his birthday celebration as well, but we still have to get that on the calendar! Ready for the party!  Evan, my farm boy, wanted a combine cake. I found the tutorial for this one here . It was actually fairly simple to make. However, I ended up needing more that one 9 by 13" cake to get it done. Also, I would recommend putting the bin a little farther back on the cake so that it is not putting pressure on the cab. I was trying to get everything done on Friday so that I c...
