A Room With A View

Life has been pretty same-o, same-o around here. I have spent the last few days cooking like a maniac--making meals to put in the freezer. I have found that although I am still very light in my domestic slippers---I really like this plan. For some reason marathon cooking isn't as overwhelming for me as figuring out and making dinner everyday. My hubby comes home Monday and has the next 6 weeks off--mentally it will be much nicer to just pull dinner out of the freezer than slaving over a stove while everyone else enjoys his vacation! And for those of you who know me--its all about the mental. So far I have; lasagna, chicken tetrazzini, chicken noodle soup, chicken & rice casserole, Parmesan crusted chicken and broccoli, marinated-skewered teriyaki chicken, chicken cordon blue, white rice, teriyaki rice, beef tips and gravy, meatloaf and potato casserole, hamburgers, cheesy spirals, ham and chicken potato casserole, BBQ boneless pork ribs, marinated bone in beef ribs, taco meat, chicken stroganoff and beef stroganoff. Some of them are family favorites, others are new experiments. This is my 2nd mass cooking--pretty fun!

So--I thought instead of pics of the whole freezer meals thing ( think aluminum foil as far as the eye can see) I would share the view from my window. I LOVE where I live.............

This is my long range view--those are the Bitterroot mountains. Please don't get hung up on that poor dead tree in the foreground--I asked Phil to cut that down 7 years ago--any day now...............................

This is right outside my window----one of my gentler friends..........she has a baby now....

A little kitty deer bonding moment...........

So--enjoy--I'm off to finish playing with my freezer!
